Thank you for the wonderful tour review, Paula-san. You had already visited various spots in Japan. In this tour, we visited unique sites in Tokyo. Your family are all friendly. I enjoyed conversation with your family. I think that you are now back to your country. Please come to Japan again in the near future.

“Two days in Tokyo with Toshihiro is a great start!”
After spending the better part of two days with Toshihiro-san, I can definitely say that he knows his way around the city and is efficient with your time. We saw so much but left me wanting to see more! Given my short time frame, Toshihiro-san provided a great mix of Shinto shrines, Buddhist temples, beautiful gardens, world famous attractions, and modern trends in Japan.And the food was amazing too! I highly recommend Toshihiro-san if you're coming to Tokyo.
Toshihiro Y.
Thank you for the excellent tour review, Craig-san. You are a very busy person. You had only two days for sightseeing in Japan. This was your first visit to Japan. But you are familiar with Japanese culture. You had challenging spirit to experience unique life style. I enjoyed walking with you. It was also important experience for me. You have great insight on society. I know that you are now back to your country. Next time, please come to Japan with your family at least two weeks for sightseeing. I recommend end of March or early April to see cherry blossoms.
