“Wonderful Experience with Keiko”
Our walking tour with Keiko through the market and temples was very informative, fun and enjoyable. She was kind, knowledgeable and explained everything clearly. We learned so much about these incredible areas of Tokyo. The six of us in the group strongly recommend a tour with Keiko while visiting Tokyo. Thank you Keiko.

Thank you so much for your kind review. I’m really happy that you and your group enjoyed the tour. I felt so lucky to guide such kind and cooperative people. At Tsukiji, you wandered around freely and tried lots of foods—everyone loved the dried snacks, especially the wasabi beans! At Asakusa, you made your wishes so sincerely, and I’m sure they will come true. Arigato!! You were all super kawaii!

“Half day Asakusa tour with Keiko”
We booked a second tour with Keiko, and she was able to give us more cultural information in Asakusa. In addition to learning about the Senso-Ji Temple and Shrine, we wandered amongst the laneways and learnt about foods and dress styles. It is so convenient that Keiko will come to the hotel at a pre-appointed time, and assist with travel and tickets. She took all our ideas into consideration, and was happy to pace our walk to include food and drink breaks. I can highly recommend Keiko to any group hoping to book a Tokyo guided tour.
Keiko H.
Thank you very much for your wonderful review. I was truly delighted to receive it. Asakusa has been one of Japan’s most beloved sightseeing areas throughout its long history, and I was happy to show you the iconic view of Kaminarimon Gate and the lively Nakamise shopping street. It was fun exploring so many different kinds of shops—some traditional and some trendy, wasn’t it? I hope you enjoy wonderful days in Japan, and I look forward to seeing you again in the future. Arigato gozaimashita.

“Shinjuku and Shibuya tour with Keiko”
Keiko provided a wonderful day for our group of 4. She was a fluent communicator, and a good organiser helping us to see all the main sights in Shinjuku and Shibuya. In particular, she took lots of photos, helped us buy IC passes, explained the train system, and assisted us to order food from a lunch menu. Keiko was originally an English Teacher, and this shows in her time management, cultural knowledge and her spoken Enlish. Highly recommended.
Keiko H.
Thank you very much for your kind review. I am truly delighted to know that you enjoyed my tour. We explored some of Tokyo’s most iconic modern districts—Shinjuku, Harajuku, and Shibuya. At first glance, these areas may look similar with their tall buildings and lively, bustling atmosphere. But once we step into the side streets, we can discover mysterious, historical, and surprisingly quiet pockets of the city. I was very happy to share these contrasts and experiences with you.
