“Tokyo in the cherry blossom”
I guide was great, she was at the hotel on time taking on a route that was adapted to us and the wheel chair, she took us to places where the walking was much simpler and could see the cherry blossom at its best. She also took us to a lovely restaurant where we could eat my wife's favourite tempura prawns. thank you
