“Amazing day with Aissam”
Our extended family of 6 (3 adults and 3 kids aged 8 to 10) had a BLAST with Aissam. Not only was the physical touring (public transportation + walking) seamless, he recommended fun, age appropriate activities and destinations that engaged all of us. Moreover, he has a lot of experience dealing with kids so was able to interact with them at their level in an educational way. Kids and adults all loved it. Thank you Sam for a great day!!

“Super guide francophone”
Nous avons passé une super après-midi avec Aissam, qui nous a fait découvrir Tokyo avec beaucoup d'enthousiasme. Il a adapté le programme à nos enfants (4 ans et 7 ans) en prévoyant des pauses et un passage par des attractions "kid-friendly". Je recommande Aissam comme guide!
