Our time with Atsuko was so incredible we were sad to say goodbye . With her gentle way we breezed through Tokyo covering the important sights and got a real sense of the culture, people and place. 20,000 steps a day countless subway rides her 9 to 3 pm schedule was enough to enable us an incredible Tokyo experience. Nothing was too much trouble everything done with a smile and complete flexibility. We enjoyed our lunches together and swapping travel family stories. Thank You Atsuko !!!! Wemade a friend in Tokyo. With Gratitude Andrea and Trevor Cohen Toronto Canada
