So Efficient

We went all over the place and covered a lot of ground. We saw so many sights and stopped at great places all over Tokyo and little places here and there to eat. For lunch we wanted hand made Udon and he knew of a place immediately and is was sooo good with an inexpensive price. We are a family of 4 and he took great care of all of us!

Thank you for the outstanding tour review, Garry-san. You investigated well about modern popular spots for family. Tour was slightly customized. In Tokyo, some areas are not appropriate for lunch. But you were cooperative to eat lunch at the area where there are many restaurants. Thank you very much. You are still in Japan and will visit many other places. Have a nice trip!

Great day

We had a wonderful time with Toshihiro. He was very knowledgeable and shared a lot of interesting information with us. He has an amazing stamina and could out walk our entire family. Highly recommend him for a way to see a lot of Tokyo in a day

Thank you for the fantastic tour review, Rochelle-san. This summer was extremely hot in Tokyo. Tour was done on the next day you just arrived in Japan. You had serious jet lag. But you were keen on the sightseeing of Tokyo. It's a great honor for me to guide your family. I know that you are still in Japan. Enjoy the rest of the days!
