Reviews

“Excellent impromptu tour of Shinjuku Gardens and Ginza”

Kahoko’s warmth and ability to connect with strangers was apparent from the moment we stepped off our hotel elevator and met her. We felt immediately comfortable with her and enjoyed our initial discussions about where we’d been in Tokyo and what we were considering. Kahoko improvised an itinerary on the spot and we enjoyed a 4-hour tour of Shinjuku Gyon and Ginza. She is quite knowledgeable about Tokyo and Japanese culture. Kahoko suggested a great ramen place and we had a nice meal together. We plan to tour with her back in Tokyo at the end of the month. We highly recommend Kahoko.

Thank you very much for the kindest review! Your warm words gave me another motivation to my carrer. You are such a terrific couple and I really enjoyed the time with you. Thanks to you , I could be aware again how happy I am to have this job. Fortunately, I have another day with you. I am looking forward to see you again and stroll tasteful old part of Tokyo together. Since then, I hope you fully enjoy your time in other parts of Japan. See you soon!

“Amazing Adventures in Tokyo”

Kahoko was a wonderful guide who showed us the old and new sights of Tokyo over 2 exciting days. She was extremely knowledgeable about the history and very patient as we navigated across the city using the subway system. Kahoko was very personable and made our time in Tokyo memorable...we would highly recommend her to anyone thinking about visiting this remarkable city.

Thank you very much for the wonderful review ! It's so encouraging to me. I was wondering how your rest of journey going. Probably, you had lots of memorable time. I had such a lovely time with you during 2 days. I took a long vacation this summer, and you were the first clients after that. I might have given you some trouble. Still, you were very tolerant and cooperative. I really appreciate it. If you have a chance, please come back to Japan some day. I hope you all good luck and happiness. Thank you again and take care!

“Best travel guide”

Kahoko is a great, knowledgeable and fun guide. We had her show us all around the Nikko shrine/temple and the mountain/lake areas. She scheduled an amazing lunch that was a crowd pleaser. She has an easy going energetic demeanor that can curate an experience to the person's particular desired experience. You cannot go wrong with booking a day with her!

Thank you very much for the kind review. Under the wonderful weather, I had a great time with a terrific couple. Thanks to you, I appreciate the most gorgeous coffee break in Nikko. I was wondering if the train tickets went well as it's kind of confusing. Still, your wonderful trip is going on, I just hope you will spend a memorable time in Japan !!
