Reviews

Day tour to Mt. Fuji

We had a great time with our tour guide Aissam. We started the day early and were able to see everything we wanted to see. Even though it was a cloudy day and weren’t able to see Mt. Fuji we learned more about this region through Aissam’s knowledge. Thank you Aissam!

Thank you so much for your kind words and for taking the time to write this lovely review. I truly enjoyed guiding you both today! While I was also hoping for a clear view of Mt. Fuji, I'm so glad that we could still have a meaningful and interesting day exploring the region together. Your curiosity and great attitude made the tour a real pleasure for me.

SUPERBE

Aissam est un super guide ! Nous le recommandons les yeux fermés. Nous avons apprécié sa compagnie, son professionnalisme et la qualité de ses explications. Nous ne sommes pas des adeptes de visites guidées de manière générale, pas crainte de manquer de liberté mais Aissam a su identifier nos envies et y laisser libre recours, en adaptant le parcours. Nous avions l’impression d’être avec un ami Tokyoïte. À faire et refaire !

Bonjour, Un immense merci pour ce magnifique commentaire. En tant que guide, je suis sincèrement touché de lire que j'ai pu répondre à vos attentes et adapter le parcours pour que vous vous sentiez à l'aise. Savoir que vous avez apprécié le côté humain et professionnel de la visite, et que vous aviez l'impression d'être "avec un ami Tokyoïte", est la plus belle des reconnaissances. J'espère avoir l'opportunité de vous guider à nouveau à l'avenir.

Best tour ever!

We had a great time with Aissam, we had schedule for a 8 hour tour. We are older and did 2 full days of DISNEY the day prior. Aissam adjusted our tour so that we were able to see and do the things that really mattered to us. He was so accommodating and really cared about us receiving the most out of tour of Tokyo. I would definitely request Aissam for all tours in the future. Thank you for showing as the places that really mattered to us!

Thank you so much for this incredibly kind review. It was my genuine pleasure to spend the day with you. After hearing about your two big days at Disney, my main goal was to make sure you experienced the best of Tokyo without any extra fatigue. I'm so happy to hear that the adjusted itinerary worked perfectly and that we could focus on the places that mattered most to you. Your enthusiasm for the city made the tour a joy for me as well. Thank you for your trust and your wonderful company. I would be delighted to be your guide again whenever you return to Tokyo!
