“Amazing Tokyo Tour with Hiromi!”
Our Tokyo tour with Hiromi was absolutely wonderful! From the historic streets of Asakusa to the beautiful temples and shrines, every part of the tour was thoughtfully planned and enjoyable. Hiromi introduced us to delicious local foods, guided us through lively souvenir markets, and shared fascinating insights about Tokyo’s culture and history. She also took us to Shibuya, where we experienced the excitement and energy of one of Tokyo’s most iconic districts. Throughout the day, Hiromi was incredibly knowledgeable, patient, and attentive to our interests. What made the experience truly special was Hiromi herself. She is such a warm, thoughtful, and caring person who made us feel welcome from the moment we met her. Her kindness and genuine passion for sharing her city made our visit unforgettable. We highly recommend Hiromi to anyone visiting Tokyo—you’ll not only have an amazing guide but also gain a wonderful friend along the way.

“Surf is up in Japan ”
Hiromi is amazing . She meet us promptly at our hotel at 9am and we headed out to our journey to see the beaches of Tokyo. Kamakura and Enoshima was on our agenda . We requested to take the train and still dont know how she navigated it to perfection. We saw the caves and temples. after a quick stop at the Family Mart for egg salad sandwiches per our request. Hiromi is so kind and patient with us . Pointed out all the restroom breaks and helped us stay hydrated with the vending machines and our evian water. We learned the culture on clapping bowing at all the temples and appreciated learning so much about the Japanese culture . Lunch was the best we every had . Home made noodle house Matsubara and Hiromi was very patient when they asked us to sit on the floor. we opted to wait for a table which was fine with Hiromi. Komachi street after for Ice cream. Tsurugaoka shrine and Hiromi got us back to our hotel around 7:30. 20,000 steps and ten miles and memories of a lift time. We started the day as Guests. Ending the day with a new friend . Hiromi will have a special place in our heart when we see the oceans of Japan. Thank you for a wonderful day.

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.
