Each season reveals a new side of the mountains, offering serene landscapes that provide a peaceful contrast to the bustling streets of Tokyo.

“A fun day of culture and immersive Japanese dining”
We had a fantastic day with Fumie. Her communication was great and we agreed on changes to the tour to include sites and experiences that were important to us. Fumie met us at our hotel and she showed us around the temple, explaining what we were looking at and how to join in respectfully. We visited the cherry blossoms as well as shopping, café culture, drinks and sights - finishing with an authentic experience in a brilliant izakaya. Overall Fumie was knowledgeable, fun and a joy to travel Tokyo with.

“Wonderful Day in Tokyo”
5 Stars – An Unforgettable Tokyo Experience with Fumie! We had the absolute pleasure spending the day with Fumie, and we couldn’t have asked for a better guide. Her English is perfect, and her gentle, kind personality made us feel completely at ease from the moment we met her. She took us all over Tokyo, sharing her deep knowledge of the city and its culture in a way that was both informative and fun. It truly felt like exploring the city with a local friend. We saw so much more than we ever could have on our own. If you’re visiting Tokyo, we highly recommend booking a tour with Fumie – she made our trip extra special

“Trip for First-Time Visitors to Tokyo”
Our trip of a lifetime to Japan was made very special by having Fumie as our guide. She is so friendly and knowledgeable, her English is impeccable and she is great fun to be with. As well as sightseeing in Tokyo seeing beautiful gardens & blossom, Temples & Shrines, Fumie took us to Hakone/Lake Ashi where we also saw snow capped Mt Fuji. We travelled by train to Kamakura to see the Giant Buddha which is certainly worth a visit. Fumie was very helpful in booking tours/restaurants and also guiding us in booking tickets for the bullet train when we travelled to Kyoto, Osaka & Kanazawa. Absolutely nothing was too much trouble. Fumie became our friend and we highly recommend her as your guide. Thank you Fumie for making our trip - Peter's lifelong dream - so special. Peter & Carol
