“A+ service all around!”
Seigo was a wonderful and caring tour guide for all of our needs. He was able to adjust the schedule and itinerary nimbly to allow for inclement weather and offer up alternative ideas on the spot. He is a beacon of local Japanese knowledge as well. I always appreciate a timely, considerate and respectful local tour guide and Seigo checked all those boxes. Highly recommend!
Seigo U.
Jesse, thank you so much for your kind words. Although the weather forecast, unfortunately, proved accurate, I’m so glad you were still able to see Mt. Fuji up close. It was a great pleasure accompanying you two to many interesting places over the past two days. I hope you enjoy the rest of your time in Japan to the fullest. I’ll be looking forward to the day we meet again. Seigo

“Wonderful Tokyo day trip! ”
Seigo, is an absolutely amazing tour guide. A local Japanese born and raised in Tokyo, a tireless individual who took us to famous landmarks like the Asakusa center, Tokyo Tower, the Shibuya Crossing, Harajuku street and pretty much everywhere in Tokyo city within 7 hours. He even booked for us a Kimono dress up experience, which we lived. He was incredibly patient with our three kids, allowing us time to explore as a family and meet them at certain points. He went above and beyond by making a reservation for us at a wonderful sushi place known for its fresh nigiri especially when it was difficult and busy in the city to find food. Seigo's joyful and exciting demeanor made the tour unforgettable. We were thrilled to have Seigo as our guide and couldn't have asked for a better experience. We highly recommend Seigo for anyone visiting Tokyo.

Katia san, Thank you so much for your lovely review. You were the very first guest to write a review during the tour—what a delightful surprise! I’m very glad you had a fun day. Thanks to you, your wonderful husband, and your adorable kids, I had such a fun and memorable day, too. We were on the move all day by subway and train—I'm sure it must have been tiring. Please take a good rest tonight and recharge for tomorrow. I sincerely look forward to seeing you all again soon! Seigo
