“Great All Day Tour of Tokyo”
We had a fantastic time with Kahoko!! She tailored the tour to our requests, accommodated my gluten allergy for lunch. She is extremely knowledgable, gave us some history and gave us a comprehensive tour. If you are going to Tokyo book a tour with Kahoko!!

Kahoko K.
Thank you very much for the wonderful review ! It was my great pleasure to join you yesterday. Both of you are extremely fit and tough ! You look 10 years younger than your real age. It was so encouraging for me and decided to stay fit and healthy as you are. We walked a lot, talked a lot , and laughed a lot. I had a really lovely time with two of you! Your long and joyful journey has just began. I hope you will have a great time in Japan. Thank you again and take care!

“A walk in the rain”
This was our second half-day tour with Kahoko. It was pouring rain. Kahoko met us at our hotel's lobby in great spirits as if the sun were shining. That feeling became addictive as if the rain couldn't and wouldn't stop us. We explored Kappabashi for a knife purchase and we visited Yanaka which is a mellower section of the city. Kahoko navigated the way and provided a narrative that helped us better understand Japan and its culture. Through the rain, we walked 14,000 steps as if it was a sunny day thanks in large part to Kahoko's positive vibes. We highly recommend working with Kahoko.

Kahoko K.
Thank you so much for another review! Your every word warmly encouraged me. That also gave me a great motivation to my job. With terrific New Yorkers, I just really enjoyed a pleasant time full of walking, talking, and laughing. Probably, your family were happy with your presents. I was wondering how many bags you had to bring back to your hotel. That's nothing but love to your family. I hope you will come back to Japan some day. There are so many to see. Thank you again and best wishes to you and your family . Take care !

“Night walking tour with dinner ”
Kahoko was an excellent guide who took us to all the interesting places in Tokyo for nighttime entertainment, from the very old and original to the modern plus an authentic dining experience. I would highly recommend her to anyone visiting Tokyo looking for interesting and varied experience.
