Reviews
“What a great day!”
In his Mini Cooper, Yuji covered a lot of territory for us in just one day. He was informative,, and his English is well understandable. In fact he taught us some Japanese. The day passed quickly and he managed to find a superb lunch, catering to my food peculiarities. He was also very solicitous with and to my husband who has difficulty walking. Ha managed to tailor the tour to our needs and was flexible throughout. I would highly recommend him!

Dear Ken & Sue Thamk you for your review. I really enjoied spending time with 2 of you today. I changed the plan so that your husband, Ken, wouldn't have to walk much, but he still had to walk a little anyway. I'll never forget the smile he gave me and the big hug he gave me at the end. Thank you for sharing your wonderful time with me. I hope you enjoy the rest of your trip.
“Personal art tour”
I had a great day with Yuji! Before I booked we agreed on an itinerary of some museums in Tokyo and also in Yokohama. Communication before we met up was good and Yuji made me feel welcome, and he had also done some research, so we made a small detour to see a pop up exhibition as well. Yuji also took lots of pictures, which was nice, as a solo traveller you're rarely in your own photos. Yuji is an easy-going guide and he loves to drive his mini, which meant I was dropped back right in front of my hotel, nice after a long day. Thank you Yuji!

“Accommodating and Informative”
To be honest, I would not have navigated Tokyo as easily without Yuji-sensei's instruction. Showed me some great places with delicious eats and I learned a lot along the way. Very patient and relaxed individual. Went out of his way facilitate my interests.

Dear Jochen san Than you for your review and even, also call me "Sensei". I am so glad you could spend the rest of your stay without any serious trouble in Tokyo. I knew it is a pice of cake for you. Please, come back with your beautiful wife next time, and guide her & maybe me. Actually I was almost going to spend more time asking you questions about your work & your experiences instead of guiding you. Please, safe trip to home !!! See you again !
