Photography of Tokyo’s modern architecture.

I can’t speak highly enough of Virginie. She thoroughly researched my request to photograph Tokyo’s modern architecture and took me on a wonderful tour. She also included information about the buildings like when they were built and who the architect was. She was friendly, prompt and extended the tour beyond the original 4 hours. I also learned a lot about Tokyo and Japanese culture from our conversations. Many, many thanks Virginie for a fabulous day.

Heather P.

Dear Heather, Thank you for your kind review. It’s been a pleasure to spend time with you ! I have been really impressed by your great energy. I enjoyed talking with you and showing you the modern architecture of several great buildings in Tokyo ! I hope you will win the greatest prize with your pictures ! Take great care of yourself!

We will explore the western suburbs of Tokyo in this tour. If you are looking for something different from the crowded tourist attractions in the central part of Tokyo, you will enjoy exploring the western suburbs of Tokyo. I recommend this tour not to first timers but to repeaters who have been to famous places in Tokyo. You will discover traditional spots in the beautiful environment of the suburbs. Weather permitting, lunch in a local restaurant can be replaced by a picnic lunch in a park.
