Couldn’t put into words how much of a great time we had! Michiko showed us around Shinjuku, all the shopping centers, had great street food, and ended our tour with some bar hopping over at Golden Gai. We shared some great stories & great laughs together. Amazing experience!

“Wonderful 2 days in Tokyo ”
Three of us had 2 days to spend touring Tokyo. We had the honor and delight of being shown Tokyo highlights by Michiko. She was extremely knowledgeable, very patient, and accommodating. We appreciated that she was willing and able to adjust our schedule according to our whims. Michiko knows the city well and provided us with excellent instructions on using the train system. When we had special requests for shopping needs she guided us to quality shops without hesitation. We highly recommend Michiko as a guide and will hire her when we return to Japan.

“Lovely day with Michiko”
We enjoyed a wonderful day tour with Michiko. She tailored an itinerary for us and then happily rearranged the tour on-the-fly as things caught our eye! She was also happy to train us in the subleties of the Tokyo Metro - which helped us out for the rest of our visit. Highly recommended.
