“The Best One Day Guided Tour Ever!!!”
I had a fantastic day with Taka as my private guide! I loved the fact that when I booked Taka, he messaged me, asked questions and got to know me a little better. This helped me identify the things I enjoy and would also like to experience in Japan. Taka has incredible attention to detail. He put together an amazing itinerary and met me at my hotel. Taka is a great communicator, he is funny :) and I instantly felt very comfortable with him. As much time as he spent putting together a perfect itinerary, he also adjusted the itinerary to make the day even more special for me based on my interest. A quick example, while he showed me the Tsukiji Outer market he noticed me looking at a chef’s knife and asked me if I was interested in them. I said yes (now I am, I didn't know it before), and he took me to this incredible store near Askusa (I think) that had all kinds of different chef knives. It wasn't part of the itinerary, but he managed to fit it in, and we still kept to our schedule. The day went by so quickly because I was having so much fun with Taka. If it is your first time to Japan or you are a returning visitor, I highly recommend that you have Taka as your guide. Taka, thank you so much for a fun packed special day.

Dear Ron, I'm deeply touched and humbled by your wonderful review. I imagine the rest of your time in Japan was just as lovely. Your wife must have been delighted with the knife you bought for her ;) Hope you’ll return to Japan someday. I’d love to see you again!

“One Day Guided Tour of Tokyo”
We had an amazing day with Taka! From the time we made the booking, Taka was very easy to communicate with. He was very helpful in planning our day with our interests and sightseeing requests to maximize our time together. Taka planned a great day for us and covered off everything we had requested and so much more. He has a wealth of knowledge and experience that he shared with us during the day. He has a very friendly personality and professional manner along with his years of travel guide experience which made our day with him very enjoyable. Thank you, Taka, Linda and Russell

Taka's Tokyo Hipster Winery Tour
You might think, “Winery in Tokyo?” But the history of winemaking in Japan started in the 19th century. High-quality wines are produced in Japan and some labels have won the gold medal at an international wine competition in France. Let me introduce you a wine tour in Tokyo. The wineries are small. There are no vineyards. But it can be enjoyed as a half day fun trip inside Tokyo.

One day tour to Mt Fuji and Lake Kawaguchi
This is a trip to see the highest and most beautiful mountain in Japan, Mount Fuji and one of five lakes surrounding Mount Fuji, Lake Kawaguchi. Mount Fuji is an active stratovolcano that last erupted from 1707 to 1708. At 3776m meters, Mount Fuji is the highest mountain in Japan and its top and gentle slopes are surrounded by rich and unspoiled nature. The mountain attracts many climbers during summer, while in winter its snow-covered top and slope gleam pure white in the sun.
