Kahoko's Excursion from Tokyo to Kawagoe
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.

“2 Days Of Amazing Experiences Around Tokyo”
Kahoko was an amazing tour guide for our group! She was incredibly attentive, punctual, and deeply knowledgeable about Japan’s history, which made the experience both smooth and enriching. She took us to all the places we wanted to visit and went above and beyond to ensure everyone was engaged and comfortable throughout the tour. Kahoko is very personable, and I would highly recommend her to anyone visiting Tokyo! Be wary of the amount of walking you will have to do, but Kahoko will ensure plenty of breaks when asked!

Kahoko K.
Thank you very much for the kind review! First of all, I am terribly sorry for having mistaken you and your brother. To my embarrassment, I realized it on the second day ! After I realized my mistake, you made nonchalant attitude and made me relieved. I really appreciate your tolerance. After the tours I was wondering how your rest of the days in Tokyo and also in Kyoto were like. Probably, you did fully enjoy and eat a lot. I hope you had such a good memories in Japan . As you are all young, please come back to Japan some day soon. I hope your health and happiness.

We booked Kahoko for two days. The first we focused on old Tokyo and the second one newer Tokyo and the Emperor's palace gardens. She was very informed and shared with us loads of interesting information. Any questions we had she answered. We had a lovely two days with her and would strongly recommend her to anyone else who is going to visit Tokyo!
