“Amazing Anime Tour!”
I recently went on an anime tour and it was an amazing experience! Grant was incredibly knowledgeable about anime and took us to all the iconic locations from our favourite shows e.g. One Piece. The itinerary was well-planned, and we got to see a lot of beautiful sights while shopping for anime. The tour also included visits to anime shops and included a fantastic tuna restaurant in Shibuya, which was a dream come true for any anime fan. Overall, it was a fantastic and memorable trip that I would highly recommend to any anime enthusiast! Grant also suggested other places to visit in Kyoto! He's very helpful and super generous with his time and recommendations.
“Shinjuku Half Day Tour”
Grant is a wealth of information! We spent our first full day in Japan attempting to find our way around. What a difference it was to spend time exploring and navigating the area with Grant. He is extremely knowledgeable regarding all things Japanese. We loved his command of the language, his stories, viewpoints and history lessons. Being that he is from the US, his perspective was especially relatable. On a personal note, he walks quickly - as do I (my sweetie was forced to catch up!). He made the most of our time together and had an enormous impact on our deeper appreciation of this area, and greater Japan, given his vast knowledge and firsthand travel experiences throughout this country. We highly recommend booking time with Grant!! Thank you again Grant!! - Julie and Alan

Japanese Whisky and Japan Exclusive Bourbon Tour in Ginza
“Amazing tour around Tokyo. ”
Grant is a great guy to spend time with. He has a deep knowledge of Japanese living and is a wonderful bridge between cultures. We spent two days together exploring gardens and especially bonsai areas. Grant was extremely helpful in allowing me to connect with the bonsai community in Japan. He helped me navigate the trains and buses which set me up for my next 2 weeks in Japan. I would recommend Grant as a guide to everyone. Thanks again Grant.
