“Great way to spend the long layover with Jamie”
I had a 20 hours layover in Tokyo and booked Jamie for an 8 hours Tokyo highlights tour. He was super friendly, knowledgeable, very accommodating and great fun to spend the day with. I can highly recommend him.

“Great experience ”
Jaime was very easygoing and knowledgeable. He adjusted our tour based on my son’s interests and it was great so see my 19 year old son so happy. He gave us great tips on how to better navigate the train system to avoid getting lost since it can be quite overwhelming. He took us to a delicious place to eat the best ramen! Hope to be back in Japan and would definitely reach out to Jaime again.
