“Awesome Tour Guide in Tokyo”
We had the best time with Tomoko as our guide in Tokyo. She was very friendly, knowledgeable about Japan’s history and very easy to understand. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with her and felt like she put together a great tour to the Imperial Palace, Uyeno Park to see the cherry blossoms and Shibuya Crossing. “Moko” was very attentive to our needs and made sure we all stayed together and that she addressed our questions. Thank you Moko!!

"Thank you very much for your gracious review, despite the unfortunate cancellation of the tour due to your wife's health condition. It was truly regrettable, as I believe guiding the Dominic family would have been an immensely enjoyable experience. I sincerely hope she makes a swift and full recovery, and that you are able to make the most of your time in Japan. I can only imagine how disappointing this must have been for Dominic family as well."

Tokyo is a modern metropolitan city built on an ancient Edo, where Tokugawa samurai government was settled. Even now we can find old relics of ancient Edo among truly modern Tokyo streets.
