Shizuko is the kindest guide you could get. Knowledgeable, attentive, patient and just overall lovely. She tailored the itinerary exactly to our liking and even catered to our diet restrictions. Thank you for today, Shizuko, a most memorable and wonderful day in Kamakura.

Dear Tana, Thank you very much for sending me such a heartfelt review. I’m so glad to received it. I felt so happy that you’re interested in Japanese history, culture and tradition and enjoyed the Kamakura tour. Another amazing thing that surprised me was your husband is a professional golfer of the PGA America. It was really an honor to meet him. Please enjoy visiting various places and having many nice experiences the rest of your trip in Japan. Thank you very much for hiring me as your guide in Kamakura. Best regards, Shizuko

“Recommended”
Shizuko’s service was invaluable to us on our visit to Tokyo. She is energetic, knowledgeable, personable and an excellent communicator. She reached out to us prior to our tour to assist with questions of any kind, and we had many. On tour day, she reviewed our expectations prior to starting the tour. We then visited six plus different areas of Tokyo in 7.5+ hours making efficient use of subways and trains, with her guidance.
Shizuko T.
Dear rick, Thank you very much for your great and so quick review. I’m so glad to receive it. It was cloudy in the morning but luckily it has improved in the afternoon. So, we could visit many places. From today, your real exciting sightseeing in Tokyo by yourselves (no guide) starts. Please try to visit many interesting places as much as possible. “Suica” and “24 hours all-you-can-ride subway ticket” will support you. It’s fine today (on Wednesday). I hope you enjoy the biggest Projection Mapping in the world at Tokyo Metropolitan Office Building. (please check in advance) I’ve enjoyed very much guiding and talking with you during the tour. Thank you again for having me as your guide. I hope that your trip in Tokyo, Takayama, Kanazawa, Kyoto, Hiroshima (Miyajima) and others will be wonderful memories of Japan. Shizuko
