Japan Tour Reviews

The best tour of Tokyo ever.

Leandra was incredible. She kept us on time and took us to all the places we wanted around Shibuya and Harajuku. She was patient and kind with our children (7 and 9) but most for all she was fun to hang out with. Karaoke was one of the highlights. I couldn’t recommend her enough. If we come back to Tokyo we would love to book her again.

Excellent Guide

Our family had an absolutely wonderful experience with Dmitrijs during my parents' recent trip to Tokyo. Since it was their first time navigating Japan, we wanted someone who could make them feel at ease, and Dmitrijs exceeded every expectation. He was incredibly kind, personable, and professional from start to finish. Beyond his deep knowledge of Tokyo’s history and culture, what really stood out was his ability to make my parents feel comfortable and confident in a completely new environment. He struck the perfect balance with the pacing of the tour—ensuring they saw the highlights without feeling rushed or overwhelmed. Dmitrijs also went above and beyond by sitting down with them to review the rest of their Japan itinerary, offering invaluable local insights that helped shape the remainder of their trip. Most importantly, my parents enjoyed his company immensely; he wasn't just a guide, but a friendly face who made their visit truly special. If you are looking for a knowledgeable and thoughtful guide in Tokyo, we cannot recommend Dmitrijs highly enough!

One of the best tours I’ve ever experienced!

Kazumi is rated as one of the best English speaking Hiroshima guides. There’s a reason— she is that good. Despite it being a miserable weather day, we thoroughly enjoyed seeing Hiroshima with Kazumi. We started our tour at the Peace Museum and she added personal commentary and stories to what we learned at the museum. We spent some time learning about the buildings that remained standing after the atomic blast and even went to the site where the bomb exploded. Next we had a delicious lunch, okonomiyaki, and then went to Miyajima · Itsukushima Shrine where we learned about the differences between shrines and temples. In every aspect of the day, Kazumi catered to our preferences. We avoided big crowds and she was infinitely patient as we took tons of pictures. She even took us back to the train station and made sure we got on the right train! The day was fantastic in spite of the weather and Kazumi was the reason. If you are able to book her for a personal tour, consider yourself lucky! We loved spending the day with Kazumi and could not recommend her more. Thank you.
