Japan Tour Reviews

Fun day exploring Tokyo

This was our first day of our first time visiting Japan and it was a fantastic way to start our trip. Ritsuko is a fantastic guide and a wonderful person. We visited a lot of the major tourist spots and Ritsuko gave us a clear understanding of the history and significance behind the sits we visited. Before arriving in Tokyo we were an apprehensive about the train system but thanks to Ritsuko we were able to navigate it successfully without her the following day. Our tour started at 9sm , finished at 4pm with us having achieved much more than we would have achieved on our own. I highly recommend getting a guide for your first day if you haven’t visited Japan before and I highly recommend Ritsuko.

Hi Tony and Kristen, Thank you so much for your warm review. I also had a great time with you. In addition to the highlights, it was especially fun to explore Kappabashi Kitchen Street with cooking lovers like you and to enjoy miso ramen together! I’m very happy to hear that our day together helped you feel more comfortable getting around Tokyo on your own. I hope the rest of your time in Japan, including Kanazawa, is just as enjoyable and full of good discoveries and delicious food. And when you get back home, please enjoy dashimaki tamago and fish with your new tools!

Osaka Castle, Temples in Osaka and Dotonbori River cruise

would like to commend our wonderful tour guide, Miss Ayumi, for making our Osaka trip such a memorable and enjoyable experience. She was very hospitable, accommodating, and attentive to our needs throughout the tour. She even accompanied us to a lovely place for dinner, where we truly enjoyed the food and the experience. What made the tour even more meaningful was the way she shared the history, culture, and traditions of Osaka, especially while visiting the beautiful temples. Her knowledge and enthusiasm made each place more interesting and gave us a deeper appreciation of Japan. Thank you, Miss Ayumi, for your kindness, patience, and excellent service. We truly enjoyed our time with you and would highly recommend her to anyone visiting Osaka. She is an exceptional tour guide!

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.
