Japan Tour Reviews

“My daughter was right.”

During a long layover in Tokyo ten years ago Shin escorted newlyweds for a day. That was so memorable that she was able to remember and recommend Shin for us, 14 and 17 y/o boys, mother and 80 y/o grandfather. She wasn't wrong. Delightful day. He taught us the ropes of the transportation system. We saw a number of areas from quiet religious sites to bustling shopping thoroughfares. Perhaps most impressively was Shin's ability to respond to an "out of the blue" request to visit an unplanned destination. He adjusted the tour by getting us to that spot and another nearby area without any qualm whatsoever. Highly recommend.

“delightfull and informative”

Meeting was seamless even though we were in an out of the way bnb. Our wish in Kyoto was to visit temples and shrines which Hiroko aced by quickly using the public trans system. She was incredibly knowledgeable regarding history and architecture in part due to the rigors of passing the national guide exams. The walking tour was broken up with a delicious meal in a spot that we would never have found. Great day for a disparate group, 14 and 17 y/o boys, mid 40 mother and 80 y/o grandfather.

“Tokyo tour for family of 6”

Dai was absolutely amazing. So friendly. So patient. So attentive. Even helping us with some last minute shopping. We wouldn’t have been able to experience Tokyo the way we did without him. We had a lovely time. Truly recommend Dai for your guide. Thank you so much Dai!
