Lovely day with Michiko

We enjoyed a wonderful day tour with Michiko. She tailored an itinerary for us and then happily rearranged the tour on-the-fly as things caught our eye! She was also happy to train us in the subleties of the Tokyo Metro - which helped us out for the rest of our visit. Highly recommended.

A great tour of the expected and unexpected

We had a great day with Michiko in Tokyo on our second day. Michiko is a charming lady with good English and despite the rainy weather, she gave us a great range of experiences from the Mejii shrine, where we saw a wedding to Takeshita St with mini pig and otther cafés ( honestly!). We saw the designer shops of Ginza and the temple in Akasusa. She also took us for a great tempura lunch, where we managed to order far too much food. All in all it was a great introduction to Tokyo. We could never have done as much on our own in one day and it was so interesting being able to speak to Japanese person.

Dear Carol, Thank you very much for taking the time to write an excellent review with beautiful photos of Tokyo. It was a rainy day and I didn't expect to see the wedding couple and children in kimono, but we were so lucky to see them! Thank you for sharing your takeaway tempura. When I got home, I called my daughter; she ate everything with a big appetite, so she also thanked you. Michiko
