Fabulous day in Tokyo

Fumiko is an exceptional guide & I’ve travelled to many countries & had other guides in Japan. She answered all messages very quickly in arranging our tour & meeting place as I asked many questions & wanted to visit certain places. For the tour she met us at a local station and gave us a handout of area we were to tour: Yanaka, Ueno, etc. Her English is excellent and the pace was good as one of our party of three has sore knees. I learned so much from Fumiko in a fun way - about Japan history, and culture/customs, food, etc.; and she helped us with purchases. Truly nothing was too much for her to assist with. A highlight was being shown special shops - with arts, crafts, food, local wares, we would have missed on our own. We ended the 6 hour tour with drinks & some food at a local izakaya. Thank you so much for facilitating a fantastic day in Tokyo. :)

Dear Helen, Thank you very much for your wonderful review. I am so glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour. I hope you will enjoy the rest of stay in Japan and have a safe journey! Best regards, Fumlko
