“Wonderful rainy day tour of Tokyo”
Yumi showed us all of the Tokyo highlights on our list. We had an excellent tour despite having rain most of the day. She is very knowledgeable and friendly. She also showed us how to use the trains and subways. Thanks again Yumi

Dennis san, thank you so much for your wonderful review. On that day, unfortunately, we had rain and very cold. I was concerned that you must have been very tired after walking around so much in such bad weather. I am sure you were able to enjoy the cherry blossoms as you toured Japan on the cruise ship. I was surprised that you had studied Japanese language and various information about Japan well in advance. I trust that you are making the most of it and enjoying a meaningful trip. Please come back to Japan again. Thank you Yumi

Yumi was a fantastic guide and came prepared with gifts for the kids. She was very fast to respond and communicated clearly the tour plan before we met. Highly recommend her for your Tokyo stay!

Mr. Heath, thank you so much for your wonderful review. I think it is not easy to travel with three children, but they were very bright and friendly and talked a lot and I had a lot of fun too. 1 year old baby Reggie is so cute and adorable, she remind me my grand son. I hope your family have lots of wonderful memories in Japan. Thank you again Yumi

“BEST DAY WITH YUMI! ”
My sister and I had a long connection in Haneda and didn't know what to do for our stay in Tokyo. We arrived really early and Yumi made an itinerary with the time we were allowed. We got culture, shopping and amazing history where ever we went. My sister and I didn't know we could jam so much in few hours. Yumi makes your experience personalized and memorable. Thank you Yumi for making my sister and I love Japan at first sight. You are the BEST!
