“Great Tour!!! ”

We had a fantastic experience on our walking tour! Akira was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and welcoming, and helped us feel comfortable and confident during our first time in Japan. He showed us both the must-see highlights and hidden gems we would never have discovered on our own. We learned so much about the culture and local area, and the tour was a wonderful way to get our bearings and start our trip. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Japan for the first time

Dear Megan, Thank you so much for the wonderful review. It was my pleasure to be part of your very first Japan visit. I was wondering if it was a bit too long of a walk for the very first full day in Tokyo but I am so happy that you all had a great time. I hope you got a sense of what it is like to be a local of Tokyo through the long walk, navigating trains, having lunch at the local restaurant, being part of the flow of the massive crowd. I hope this Japan trip will be a memorable and enjoyable experience for all of you. See you next time! Akira

“Japan/Tokyo introduction”

Akira was our introduction to Japan and Tokyo. He fulfilled our needs magnificently. We, 14 and 17 y/o boys, their mother and grandfather, learned to lose our fear of the subway system, see an incredible Shinto shrine in a park, make our way down Takeshita and have a delightful meal at a very local diner. Boys were especially happy with tips he gave them regarding sites thay might wish to see on their own. There is a lot of walking but at 81 I was able to hang in.

Akira N.

Dear George, Thank you so much for the wonderful review. I am so glad you enjoyed the tour as much as I did. I loved the peaceful and happy atmosphere that your family briught. I hope that your 81st birthday in Japan was a memorable one, filled with love. Also, I hope that I’ll be a curious, humble, and kind person with beautiful spirit like yours when I am luckily enough to reach 81. I’m looking forward to another chance to explore this city I love together. Sincerely, Akira
