“Fantastic day and guide”
Hiromi treated us to a fantastic day in Tokyo. She was sensitive to our needs, compassionate and very friendly. She spent more time with us than what we paid for, because we lingered at the Sky Tower. She also advanced a substantial amount of her own money in buying advance tickets for us to ensure easy access for our group. We highly recommend Hiromi.

I’m so happy to have Hiromi as the day trip guide to the outskirts of Tokyo. She’s friendly and helpful all the way. She helps explaining me the culture and information of the places in detail.

“Great Tour!”
Hiromi put together an amazing custom tour around Asakusa and Kappabashi, and was very knowledgeable about the area and customs. She was very patient and easy to get along with, and also helped translate with the different vendors when I didn’t understand. I would highly recommend her for your tours when in Japan!
