“Highly recommend Kaneo!”

Kaneo took my family around many interesting places within Tokyo, and he was very knowledgeable about the details and background of each fascinating, picturesque, and charming destination. What really stood out for us was how accommodating he was...he had set places to show us, but was more than happy to change based on our interests. In addition, I am claustrophobic; thus, don't like crowded subways. Kaneo understood and would always ask how I felt when we were on a subway; he was so kind and considerate to our needs. Kaneo really made our first time experience in Tokyo very special!

Kaneo U.

Thank you for your good review. I was wondering if I forced you into uncomfortable situations. Anyway I am very happy to know you enjoyed my guiding. I hope I can see you again near Tokyo.

“Tour of Sado Island”

Mutsuko was very accommodating and could speak English very well. We enjoyed being guided by her and the Sado Island Guide that she employed. He actually lives on the island, farms rice fields with his neighbors and was very knowledgeable about the whole island. Mutsuko was very good in translating his stories and familiarity with the Island and the people who lived there. Mr. Nakagawa was a wealth of knowledge and a very good tour guide which made tour very enjoyable. (one thing Mutsuko should have given me an estimated cost of hiring Mr. Nakagawa as some others might have been a little surprised at the cost of his service.) All in all it was a great time and a enjoyable tour.

Melvin-san, Thank you for your valuable feedback back. I really appreciate it. For the estimated taxi fare, I already put in my "Excluded" expense of the tour. You might have overlooked at it. I should have reminded you twice. I am so sorry. And the device did not work well either. I already talked about it to the taxi company. I hope this will make up with your dissatisfaction to some extent. Thank you very much and I hope you will come back to Sado again. Best regards, Mutsuko

“Nice Tour Guide”

Atsushi was a wonderful tour guide . We learnt alot about Japanese culture from him. Don’t let his age fool you. He has alot of energy. We had to try to keep up with him that is how much energy he has. I have never walked so much in a day until this trip. What an experience. Thank you Atsushi , we had a good time.

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.
