“four architects spend two weeks in Japan, 3 days in Tokyo”
We had a number of buildings we wanted to see in Tokyo as part of our architectural tour. Atsuhiro research their location before we arrived and toke us to them as well as to sites he selected in a two day tour. He was prompt, efficient, and flexible in his well planned itinerary. We would certainly use him again for a similar purpose. High marks all around.

Explore two breathtaking Japanese gardens
On this tour, I’ll guide you through two of my favorite gardens. The first is Koishikawa Korakuen Garden, where a stroll around the central pond reveals four beautiul landscapes: a river, a mountain, countryside, and the ocean. The second is Rikugien Garden, renowned as the 'Garden of Japanese Classic Poems' . Both gardens, created by influential feudal lords of the Edo Period (1603-1868). Those gardens provide a serene experience while offering a glimpse into Japanese history and culture.
