Kawagoe is in the western part of Saitama prefecture next to Tokyo. It is a long-established commercial town from Edo Era. Unlike Tokyo, it survived air-raids of World War Two because it was in the suburbs of Metropolitan. Thanks for that, there are lots of traditional buildings and houses of different ages in a good condition. Now then, this place is getting more and more popular not only among foreigh tourist but also Japanese tourists.

Reviews

Wonderful day!

Kahoko is a caring person. She always comes prepared for what you want to do and see and when you can´t have all you want, she looks for answers and other possibilities. This was a snow Tokyo tour and was just wonderful! This is the second time we had our tour with Kahoko and it was just so good and nice! Thanks a lot for the experience!

Thank you very much for the wonderful review ! It's very encouraging and gave me another motivation for me. I was really happy to be able to guide you again. As it was snowy, I was concerning that you might feel unpleasant. Still, you didn't care at all and even enjoyed. I really appreciate your positive attitude. You are such a terrific working grandma. I am following you ! Thank you again and take care !

Kahoko is family

We are a family of four, with the youngest in her late twenties. Kahoko was full of energy and so warm. She was very experienced in how to get from place to place on the trains and from begging to end, kept us busy. We all connected personally with Kahoko and she made our first trip to Tokyo so memorable. I would highly recommend Kahoko as your guide when visiting Tokyo.
