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.

She helped us plan a packed day so we got to see and do everything efficiently and we had so much fun spending time with her. She answered our questions along the way and we felt taken care of and welcome just like we were part of her family. From the planning long before we got to Japan to our hugs goodbye at the end of the tour she worked hard to make our entire experience unforgettable and we are so grateful to have met her! Don’t hesitate - book a tour with her you will be happy!!!

Thank you very much for the fabulous review ! I really appreciated it. It was my record- making tour visiting many places in a day. It was challenging but very much fun from the stage to make an itinerary considering the time efficiency. The actual tour was like a TV program from start to end. We talked a lot , walked a lot and even more, laughed a lot. It was definitely one of the most unforgettable tours for me . Thank you very much for your consideration and thoughtfulness. You will make my heart warmed when I remember two of you. I do hope you will enjoy the rest of your wonderful tour. I am sure you will. Take care !

“Tokyo night with Kahoko ”
We really enjoyed our evening tour of downtown Tokyo with Kahoko. She showed us the major highlights of the night Tokyo, navigating expertly the crowds. After that we had a very nice dinner with her at a great restaurant. Kahoko is an exceptionally friendly guide, she even helped us with navigating Tokyo station and buying tickets for Shinkansen to our next point of visit ! We loved our time with Kahoko and strongly recommend her as a guide in Tokyo. Dmitry, Lisa
