Reviews

An engaging personalized tour with a "friend"

Touring with Mido is like having a friend show you around their city. The tour was a great blend of hidden gems and tourist areas. Mido is patient and kind. We covered a lot of ground while waking at a relaxed pace. We learned so much about Japanese culture. He catered the tour to our liking and gave us awesome food/ shopping recommendations. We also felt very safe. We highly recommend booking Mido for your next tour.
