Japan Tour Reviews

“Enjoyable adventure in Tokyo”

Mitsuru (Mark) came to our accommodation early, and was enthusiastic and ready to go. He had a prepared discussion of Japanese history to share, and answered our questions. We learned about Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines and how they affect the Japanese culture. He guided us through the Tsukiji market, always helpful to explain and intervene on our behalf, and then a visit to Senso-Ji Temple and shrine, and Nakamise street. He made sure we arrived at our next event in Shibuya on time. He was very easy to understand, and fun to spend time with. Thank you Mark! See you next time we visit!

“Wonderful day with Michiko”

We had a wonderful day with Michiko in Nara. She was polite, patient and charming despite our children’s’ changing moods. We particularly enjoyed a lovely traditional lunch spot and a very special calligraphy lesson, where she was very encouraging. We loved learning about Buddhism and Todaji temple and saw sides of Nara we wouldn’t have discovered without her. Thank you Michiko for looking after us and showing us Nara through the eyes of a local, we had a wonderful experience.

“Leo is a legend! ”

Leo was an awesome guide for a rainy day in Kyoto. He managed to keep us out of the rain and entertained as much as possible despite the weather and he was so good with our kids aged 11 and 8, who bombarded him with endless questions about Pokemon! His English is excellent and it was so interesting to hear about his life and experiences as a young person in Japan, and his knowledge of castles, shrines, temples and Japanese history and culture really added to our day. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Leo to anyone, especially if you have children or teens - he is knowledgeable, engaging and a lot of fun - please come and visit us if ever you’re in the UK!

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.
