“A lovely way to see busy and peaceful Tokyo”
Atsuko was a lovely guide. Not only was the tour a perfect blend of pace and activities but we enjoyed the time with her. She chose a perfect (not touristy) place for lunch and included Cat Street and vintage shops on the tour per our request. Highly recommend.

“Happy and Hassle-free Way to Tour Tokyo”
Tokyo is a fascinating city with numerous interesting places to visit and unique situations to experiences and enjoy - but, for a first time visitor, knowing what to do, where to go, and how to get there can be particularly challenging. Which is why our personal guide, Atsuko, proved to be worth every Yen of the cost to benefit from her service. Punctual, polite, personable, articulate in English and highly professional, having Atusko to advise us, help us navigate the railway system, walk from location to location, and share her local knowledge was hugely beneficial. Furthermore, having her on hand to translate and ask questions on our behalf was key to our understanding of Tokyo life and our overall enjoyment of the day. By the time we finsihed the tour, we felt as though we had gained a new friend.

Thank you very much such a wonderful review Keith! I had a great time with you and Sally. I really enjoyed conversation with yours. You told me a lot of things that I didn't know. Barbados is such a beautiful place and sunrise from your pool pictures are amazing! I hope to see you again someday. Thank you again and hope you have a nice day today.

“A Great Guide and a Wonderful Tour”
Atsuko is a great guide. She not only knows and shares everything about Tokyo, she is a lot of fun to spend the day with. The tour was tailored by Atsuko based on our interests, and the pace was perfect (we are avid walkers and she took that into account). It was a good way to get our orientation to this extremely large city and provided us with both a cultural overview and a number of places we returned to with more time. Highly recommend!
