Perfect day trip with Michiko in Tokyo

Michiko was great from the very beginning - advise of best route based on our interest. She was very nice, explained about everything in very good English and took us to a very good local Sushi restaurant. We had a great experience and want to thank Michiko for being our guide in Tokyo.

Maya S.

Dear Maya, Thank you very much for taking the time to write and giving me an excellent review. I hope you enjoyed the twilight view from the observation deck of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government Office. I also enjoyed the best sushi in Tsukiji, thank you. Take care, Michiko

5 stars! Amazing!

Michiko was incredible! Very knowledgeable and fun to work with. We enjoyed every minute with her and what she had to say about the places we visited. We asked her to come on an hop on/off bus and she was able to show us all of Tokyo and give us the history and information about everything we saw. I would 10/10 book her again. Thank you!

Jacob T.

Dear Jacob, Thank you very much for giving me such an excellent review. Yes, your request is a bit unusual. That's why I enjoyed a hop on/off bus riding. Especially, it was beautiful scenery we could see the Tokyo Bayside at sunset from the double-decker bus. Thank you for giving me such a nice opportunity. Unique requests are always welcome. Michiko
