“Seigo is the best! ”

The three of us had a wonderful time with Seigo. He was perfect from the start, helping me with our half day planning and providing all the little coordination details to make the day very smooth. Execution on the day of was flawless and his driving is also superb. If we had more time to explore other areas, we would have booked Seigo again as he has lots of local spots to suggest that is more exciting that just the typical tour locations. We hope to see him again on our future trips! P.S. He is also fantastic with photos and will make sure to capture great shots for your entire group.

Amy san, Domo Arigato for spending time in writing a wonderful review for me. I am so grateful. You were fortunate to be able to see Mt. Fuji from different points. I was very happy to take you guys to such places. Also thanks for posting the picture of us at the restaurant. I will never forget the moments we shared in Hakone. I hope you enjoy the rest of your stay in Japan and have a safe trip home. Chao! Seigo

“Awesome Highlights of Tokyo 1-Day”

With no time to plan and very little research, I hastily booked a stop in Tokyo during legs of international travel. I found Seigo's profile online and we started exchanging messages via GoWithGuide. He massively helped me optimise my time to see some great wonders of the city. I expressed a desire to immerse myself in Tokyo, so Seigo suggested we ride the trains, walk around some of the famous shopping areas, dine in a carousel restaurant, and of course see the major shrines. This is exactly what we did, and it was a blast! We began the day with Seigo meeting me outside my hotel – he was prompt at our meeting time and had an itinerary with a few options ready to discuss. We ran through the list and then set off, walking to the train station to ride to the Meiji shrine. At the shrine, Seigo was a fountain of information about the shrine itself, landmarks, cultural significance, and more. I had lots of questions – Seigo was great in entertaining all my queries and was fun to talk to. He also had some great advice on dos and don’ts at the shrine. From there, we visited fun parts of the city, including the Shibuya Scramble Crossing, the five-storied pagoda in Sensoji Temple, many shopping streets, and finally the Tokyo Tower. As a guide, Seigo was great – he has expansive knowledge of the city and sights, and at every stop he asked me what I was most interested in. There were several times during the day we set about a new direction based on my input as we went along – he was really flexible, and that made everything easy and fun. At the end of the day, Seigo rode the train back to the station nearest to my hotel. I was happy to walk back on my own (about 1k), but he made sure I had the route set on Google maps, and then checked-in later to verify I’d made it home alright. Overall, Seigo was a pleasure to be with, planned a really fun day, and adapted on-the-fly to my preferences, making everything simply a delight. I highly recommend Seigo as a guide.

Hi Steve, thank you for booking my two-day tour. You were too busy to see many things in Tokyo and around Fujisan, but I tried to meet your requests, including the highlights and a few off-the-beaten-path places. I am pleased you enjoyed Day 1 traveling around Tokyo by train and subway. Looking down from the observatory of Tokyo Tower may have given you an idea that Tokyo is just huge. I hope you return shortly to have much more fun in the big city. Seigo

“Amazing Full day Mt Fuji tour with Seigo!”

This is a review of our 3rd day tour with Seigo, following 2 wonderful days together! This full day tour was outstanding and truly memorable. We started the day with a drive to Arakurayama Sengen Park to visit the Pagoda there. Seigo gave us tips for ascending the 398 stairs to reach the Pagoda, and we were glad we did so! At the top, there were breathtaking views, but sadly no Mt Fuji views as clouds engulfed the area. Next we visited the Lake Kawaguchi area and caught an ongoing festival there and the absolutely amazing change of season colors in the area! Seigo took many photos of us with the beautiful Fall colors. While walking around the Lake, Seigo excitedly pointed out that the clouds were clearing and we would at last get our first views of Mt Fuji! And what views we got! Mt Fuji is majestic and impressive and easy to understand why it is such an iconic part of Japan’s culture and identity. We took numerous photos and Seigo took many more of us in front of Mt Fuji. It was awe inspiring! From there we drove to a local town for a super fun revolving sushi experience that was both delicious and memorable. Seigo took us shopping for souvenirs at our request, helping us find local crafts and products to bring home. Following our visit to Mt. Fuji WHICH WAS AMAZING, we drove back towards Hakone to visit the Hakone Open Air Museum, stopping along the way for an impromptu visit to see the Sengokuhara Pampas Grass fields that were in full bloom! The Hakone Open Air Museum is amazing. With extraordinary outdoor sculptures throughout and an exceptional Picasso exhibit indoors, it is a must see stop in Hakone. Seigo made sure that our 3 day visit to Hakone and Mt Fuji was memorable and catered to our interests. Along the way, we experienced this incredible area and scenery and our visit to the area was made more enjoyable by Seigo’s kindness, thoughtfulness and great knowledge of the area. A wonderful end to 3 glorious days in Hakone and Mt. Fuji!

Thank you for your wonderful review. Yes, you both made it to the Pagoda climbing 398 stairs. It was Sugoi! Now I would like to expect you to try to climb to the top of Fujisan on your next visit to Japan. I couldn't be happier we shared the picturesque views of autumn foliage and the awe-inspiring views of Fujisan on the shore of Lake Kawaguchiko. The memory will last forever. Thank you again for your cooperation throughout 3 days. I hope we meet again shortly. Seigo
