We did a one day Tokyo tour with Toshihiro San. He was great with communication and answered all my questions before we arrived. On the day of the tour, he was on time to pick us up from our hotel in Shinjuku. Very professional, knowledgeable and friendly. He had a lot of insight into the history and gave us a great overview of all the spots we visited with him. We took the train and walked around with him. Being vegetarian/vegan, he also suggested a very nice vegan place for lunch. It was also nice to know him as a person. At the end of the tour, he made sure we got to our next location on time and safely. Thank you Toshihiro for such a wonderful tour.
Thank you for the wonderful tour review, Dipti-san. You researched well about Japan and Tokyo before arrival. It was my pleasure to answer various questions asked by you. I could deeply understand what is concern for tourists coming to Japan. It was good experience as a tour guide. You have a nice family with a friendly atmosphere. I enjoyed guiding you especially when I explained the history and the culture of Japan. You understood backgrounds of historical events as you are familiar with Asia. I am not a vegetarian, but I like vegetarian food. It was a great opportunity to eat lunch with real vegetarian people. I know that you are still in Japan. Please continue a nice journey!

Our first day with Tosh great Covered a lot of ground. We had to cancel the 2nd day due to illness We would use Tosh again. Thanks Toshihiro Robert and Diana
Thank you for the tour review, Robert-san and Diana-san. I enjoyed the first day tour with you. I was looking forward to the second day tour, but it was really sad for me to hear that you became ill. I think that you already recovered from illness and wrote the tour review at home. I hope that you will come to Japan again in near future.

We had a really great day with Toshi. Saw many attractions and he also helped us with sorting out the Shinkansen trip we needed to book. He gave us very good advice! Extremely helpful!
Thank you for the marvelous tour review, Olga-san. You investigated well about attractive spots in Japan in this autumn season. You also understand Japanese culture well. You purchased really authentic souvenirs. I enjoyed Tokyo tour with you. From now, you will visit various places in this country. Have a nice trip!

We think of ourselves as seasoned travellers but there is no way we could’ve negotiated our way around Tokyo without a tour guide. Toshi was the best . If you have two days and want to see the main sights of Tokyo this is the guide for you. He is calm, organized, impeccably mannered and flexible. He is knowledgeable and gives you just enough information. He didn’t rush us. His speed was just right. When we took some off tour detours he didn’t flinch. We would rate Toshi as one of our best tour guides.
Thank you for the fantastic tour review, Patricia-san. Yes, you are very experienced tourists already visited various areas in the world. You understand the unique points of Japan. So one person of your group sometimes took off tour route and found something different from normal tourists attraction. It was new discovery and fruitful experience for me as a tour guide. I really enjoyed conversation with you. You assisted me to organize the itinerary. Thank you very much again. I think you are still in Tokyo. Please enjoy the rest of your days in Japan.
