“Orientation and Art”
Kumiko gave us a great orientation to the city for our first day in Tokyo. What had seemed like an intimidating place quickly gave way to many interesting neighborhoods, some bustling, others leafy and quiet. We focused on art and her insights were very helpful. She was kind and very accommodating of our sometimes changing needs. I would recommend Kumiko highly.

“A great day with Kumiko!”
We spent our first day in Tokyo with Kumiko. It was a great experience and one I would highly recommend. She helped us get Suica cards which were very useful as we navigated the Tokyo transportation system. Kumiko enabled us to efficiently see the highlights of Tokyo (Temples, Shrines, Harjuku and other areas) without spending time getting lost and trying to figure out directions in train stations. Her English is very very good and she explained the history and background of the places we visited. Thank you Kumiko!

It's easy to catch a cold in between seasons and be exhausted because of jeg lag, different cultures, and the environment. Please take care of yourself and enjoy the rest of your journey in Japan!
