“Tokyo Customised Tour”

We had an amazing day with Chiaki. She is very engaging and was very knowledgeable about the places she took us to. She encouraged us to see authentic places in Tokyo and experience the atmosphere of Japanese life. She has excellent English. She was fantastic at negotiating the transport system. She is a highly organised and very professional lady. We visited The Tsukiji Fish Market, Fukagawa Fudodo, Asakusa (Sensoji Temple and Nakamise Shopping Street, Imperial Palace Square and the Observatory at the Metropolitan Government Building.

Thank you Yvonne, for your lovely words! I’m delighted to hear that you enjoyed exploring Tokyo and experiencing some of its authentic local spots. It was such a pleasure guiding you and Eamonn through the city and talking about our countries and daily life. I hope the wishes you wrote on the wood sticks at Fukagawa Fudodo will come true. I truly appreciate your kind words and hope to welcome you back to Japan again in the future! Please send my best wishes to Eamonn!

“The most organized, responsive guide”

We cannot say enough good things about Chiaki and feel very fortunate to have found her. From the numerous messages we exchanged, Chiaki felt like the best fit for a guide. It ended up being the perfect first day in Japan and Tokyo. It was a full day, with Chiaki explaining everything from the subway to the places we visited. The Fudodo Twmple was incredible and without Chiaki’s suggestion, we would have missed it. We saw the fire ritual, drumming, chanting. Chiaki also took us to an outstanding vegan restaurant that did Buddhist temple cooking. Tucked away on the third floor of a building in Roppongi, it would have been hard to find it on our own. Chiaki also helped us buy our Shinkansen tickets and was extremely thorough in organizing them with detailed instructions. We truly had the perfect guide We covered more ground than we could have on our own, it was a good orientation on the subway, and it did not feel rushed. And throughout the day, Chiaki was and considerate. She was always eager to help and had suggestions for the days we are going to explore on our own. Thank you, Chiaki!

Dear Meena, thank you so much for posting your lovely review! I’m so glad you enjoyed the tour and that I could make things like navigating the metro easier for you. It was a real pleasure spending the day together. You find fun everywhere, like when I explained about A-Un statues at the gate of Sensoji Temple and when we crossed the Shibuya Crossing. When we were at the gate of Meiji Jingu Shrine, you found beauty in its simplicity. It’s the philosophy of Wabi-Sabi. Now I’m very happy that you have found me! I hope the rest of your travels are full of wonderful experiences! Please say hello to your charming sons. Thank you!

“Perfect way to spend the first day in Tokyo”

Chiaki was an excellent guide from the first contact. We messaged in advance to agree an itinerary for the day and Chiaki made sure the day was well paced. Having help to understand and navigate the metro was really helpful and Chiaki even helped us retrieve our tickets for our ongoing travels at the JR station. (This saved us a bit of stress I’m sure!). Chiaki is a very considerate and friendly guide and I couldn’t recommend her enough.
