“Splendid guide, lovely traveling companion”

My wife and I had a wonderful first-day tour of Tokyo with Yumi, who we wholeheartedly recommend as a personable, knowledgeable, energetic and able guide. Yumi worked closely with us in advance to tailor every detail of our day together and ensured that every need was met along the way. She seamlessly wove together the history, religion and culture of Japan to give us a deeper understanding and greater appreciation of this magical country. Thanks, Yumi!

“A rainy but still perfect day in Tokyo”

I really enjoyed the day with Yumi a lot. Getting all the information about Shintoism and the late emperors of Japan when visiting the Mejii Jingo and Buddhism when visiting the Sensō-ji was wonderful. Closing the day in the quiet Hama-rikyu Gardens was perfect too. But I also enjoyed our conversations about „Gott und die Welt“ („all the world and his wife“ to save you from looking it up) which gave me so much insight into the Japanese culture and thinking. どうもありがとございます Yumi

Yes, we talked about various things, and found many things in common in our different cultures, which was amazing!
