Tokyo Tour Reviews
“Not what we expected”
We expected to have a deep dive on Japan culture and history during the tour. Instead we had a rushed and intense walk + subway tour that was neither inspiring or informative. The highlight was that the say was beautiful abd we got to see many of the cherry blossoms in full bloom.

(128 reviews)Sorry I didn't match what you were expecting. I felt sometimes you seemed not to understand English well enough. Maybe you should look for a guide who spoke Portugese. I wish you would ask more questions for what you were looking for. I explained about Shogun and the history of Sensoji Asakusa. I hope the rest of your trip went well.
“Knowledgeable and flexible ”
Yoko was very knowledgeable about everyplace we visited. She was also understanding of my slower walking pace. I knit and crochet and she helped me find some Made in Japan yarns I can't find in the USA. Thank-you for the history lessons and fun quizzes!

“Top guide in Tokyo ”
If you are visiting Tokyo you need Yoko. She is very knowledgeable about Tokyo. She customized a perfect day for our families first visit. She was able to make sure everyone in the group got to see or do something they wanted. Helpful every step of the way 10/10.
