“Seigo is the guide you are looking for”
Seigo San could not have been a better guide. From his thoughtful and efficient planning which was tailored to exactly what we wanted to do and see, to his insights, knowledge, and friendly conversation, having Seigo San guide us around Tokyo was the highlight of our trip. He knows exactly where to go, when to go, and in what order to go see everything you want to do. Not only is he professional and knowledgeable about all of the history and attractions, but he printed out Japanese phrase guides and helped us learn the language. Seigo also knows great spots to eat. He knows the main spots, and the hidden gems off the beaten path. He’s also a wonderful photographer and captured many candid moments of our group. Overall, we couldn’t have had more fun. 10/10. 5 stars. We would give him 6 if we could. We were so sad to say goodbye, but incredibly thankful for his planning, insights, and friendship.
Seigo U.
Eric san, I’m truly honored and humbled by your kind words. Over the past two days, we explored so many wonderful places—from experiencing the serenity of Meiji Shrine Inner Garden and writing a wish on an ema tablet, to soaking in the lively atmosphere of Asakusa, discovering the oasis of Hama-rikyu Gardens in the heart of the city, and indulging in a delightful food tour in Tsukiji. Seeing all of your smiles filled me with happiness. I’m deeply grateful for the time you spent with me, and I will forever cherish the memories we created together. I sincerely hope we can meet again soon, whether in Japan or Texas. Wishing you all a fantastic rest of your trip and a safe journey home. Warmest regards, Seigo

“Amazing Day in Tokyo with Siego”
Our family (from Australia) spent a day with Siego U in Tokyo for New Years Eve 2024. It was our first trip to Japan. Siego planned a perfect, action packed itinerary for us which we absolutely loved… we visited shrines, spent time in a hedgehog cafe, had sushi train lunch, dressed in Kimonos and walked the old streets of Asakusa and enjoyed a delicious dinner at a sumo restaurant. He made us feel comfortable in an unfamiliar city where we don’t speak the language. He taught us a few great words too! Siego San - you are sugoi (awesome). We will remember our day with you forever. Janne (bye) and thanks for everything. Tracy, Jim, Ben and Sarah.
Seigo U.
Dear Tracy san, Thank you so much for your wonderful review. I’m truly grateful for the opportunity to spend such a special day, New Year’s Eve, with you and your family. Seeing all of your bright smiles brought me so much joy. That day will forever hold a special place in my heart. I sincerely hope you and your family fully enjoy your first trip to Japan and return home with cherished memories. Tracy, Jim, Ben, and Sarah, Jaa-mata-ne! (See you again) Seigo Warm regards,
