“Tokyo tour with Kaneo”

Kaneo is a very personable and helpful guide. He was efficient and knowledgeable. The your he planned for us took in all the major sites we wished to visit and he did not rush us, actually he gave us more time than we had paid for. It would have been helpful to have some written information about the sites we visited to take away and read, because there is limited time and a lot to take in. But this is only a small point and overall the experience was excellent.

“Great day in Tokyo with Kaneo”

With Kaneo as my guide, I was able to see many attractions in Tokyo in one day. I would never have been able to see so many sites by myself. Tokyo is busy and confusing, so someone who is visiting for the first time can really benefit from having a skilled guide lead the way. Kaneo could answer every question I ask. He was knowledgeable, polite and fun to spend the day with. He did his best to assure that I saw all the highlights. As a bonus, the cherry blossoms were finally blooming and Kaneo knows just where to go to see the best displays of the blossoms. I highly recommend Kaneo as your guide to make the most of your time in Tokyo..
