“Yokohama the real gem”
Since Hiromi San is from Yokohama she has advised us to visit Yokohama eventhough it was not in our itinerary initially. Based on her recommendation we visited the place along with her and the experience was amazing. Rather than heading to Mount Fuji we appreciate the visit to Yokohama which gives us a different experience. Thanks Hiromi San for the Eel restaurant and the other sightseeing visits. An amazing guide…

“A Family Guide”
Hiromi San is the best when it comes to the family trip. She ensures that all family members sightseeing requirements are met and gave a detailed history of the places visited including shopping options. Ensures the younger one’s in the group is taken care so that you will have a relaxed holiday.

How about experiencing the modern and historical attractions in Yokohama?
Yokohama is the second largest city in Japan but actually most of the tourists don’t know how to enjoy this beautiful city in one day. I will show and take you my favorite places where locals also like and enjoy . How about looking down the beautiful city from the observatory and making the original instant noodles and visiting the serene historical park you feel like to be in Kyoto with me!!

Once upon a time in Asakusa: Handicraft & Samurai
The Edo period, when Tokyo became the capital, is often seen as the peak of Japanese art and culture! Temple architecture, woodworking, woodblock prints, porcelain... I will use traditional handicrafts to illustrate the history and lifestyle of the people of Tokyo. Who were the samurai? What difference with a Ninja? How were armors crafted? I am also going to teach you all you need to know about those fierce warriors in front of a large collection of authentic weapons & armors.

Best recommended tour for the first-time visitor to Tokyo. Tokyo is a unique city with various traditional and contemporary attractions. Let’s create your personalized time in Tokyo by discussing the places you want to visit. You should plan a tour of different sites, such as Kamakura and Hakone, along with my other plan. I am based in Tokyo, but I would happily arrange your tour.
