Tokyo Tour Reviews
“Superb introduction to Tokyo, and Japan in general”
This was my first visit to Japan, and therefore very much needed a guided tour that covered some historical/cultural highlights, offered sufficient flexibility to accommodate my preferences, and did so effectively in English. Saori surpassed my expectations on all counts. I have no doubt that was in large part because, having lived in the U.S. and Europe for a substantial number of years, she has the perfect skill set to serve as a “bridge” between such differing cultures. I couldn’t recommend Saori more highly and enthusiastically. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

“She took us to a beautiful temple and a wonderful restaurant. ”
She was great to work with. Very helpful with the language and how to get around. She was very kind.
“She was the nicest person!!”
Saori showed me how to use the train as well as helped me with directions! She took me to an authentic tempura restaurant and it was the best I've ever had. She was the nicest person and so grateful for her help !
