Japan Tour Reviews

“Guided tour”
We had an excellent time! Grant was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of Japan and almost stopped like I was speaking to a history professor during our excursion. He had an incredibly broad range of knowledge that covered a pull out of. His knowledge of the real system was worth the price we paid a loan! Not only did he help us with our tour he also gave us advice when we go to Kyoto and help us purchase our tickets. I would highly recommend using him

“An Exceptional Private Tour of Kanazawa”
We had a wonderful private tour of Kanazawa with Naoto, and we can't recommend him highly enough. From our very first messages, well before the tour itself, he was attentive and responsive, taking real care to understand our preferences. He then built a program around exactly what we were looking for, and it fit our needs perfectly. On the day, Naoto was an exceptional guide. His deep knowledge of Kanazawa brought every place we visited to life and made the difference between simply seeing the sights and truly appreciating them. The organization was flawless from start to finish. If you're looking for a guide in Kanazawa who listens, plans thoughtfully, and shares his expertise generously, Naoto is an outstanding choice. Thank you for a memorable day.

Tomoko H.
Marianna, thank you for your kind review. You had done such thorough research and preparation for your family that I was delighted to be of some help. It was lovely to meet you in Hakone-Yumoto and enjoy a fun day out sightseeing in Hakone with your family of seven all the way to Gora. As it was the day of the fireworks display, it was quite interesting to see food stalls set up along the shores of Lake Ashi—which your children enjoyed a lot. Next time you visit, I’d love to take you to an art museum you’re interested in. Please give my regards to your family :)- Tomoko

Private Tours in Japan
Learning about Japan has never been easier with our local, expert tour guides leading the way, from a tour through Okayama, to the inner gems of Shikoku.
Ready to take on Japan’s sites and go beyond the usual? Kurashiki's Bikan Historical Quarter is a beautifully preserved Edo-period district, and with a knowledgeable tour guide, you can encounter traditional architecture, willow-lined canals, and charming shops. From historical context, to share stories about the area, it’s time to see the land of the rising sun the right way.
To see a side of Japan not commonly noticed, talk to a local tour guide about peaceful pockets of relaxation like Iya Valley, a rugged setting with high cliffs, vine bridges, and traditional thatched-roof houses waiting to be explored.
