“A Full Day Outing with Takako”
Overall, wonderful experience with Takako. She was very accommodating from initial messaging to the day of. We provided her with a few locations and she helped us plan the day. She arrived promptly in the morning and met us at our hotel lobby, even though it was raining! While we had a set itinerary, she was flexible. We went to several places including the famous Tsukiji fish market, which we ended up staying much longer than anticipated! We were also trying to chase cherry blossoms, which thanks to Takako we were able to spot a handful. We appreciated Takako knowledge, patience and kindness! She even stayed with us past her agreed upon time. Thank you very much Takako!

“We did beautiful sightseeing”
We enjoyed our tour a lot, Mana was quick, so we were able to see a lot of things. She was also very flexible, so when the kids wanted to slow down and see something, she was very patient. She also spent more than 8 hours with us and said that we did not have to pay extra. The explanations for children were very interesting, and we especially enjoyed the shibori museum where my friend’s teenage daughter was given a unique opportunity to try a very valuable kimono and we bought unique souvenirs. Thank you!
“A great day”
Shuji was an excellent guide, we had a wonderful, interesting day.

(12 reviews)Thanks for the great review. We enjoyed the beautiful roses in the Nakanoshima Garden and were lucky enough to get nice seats at the riverside cafe. Above all, visiting the Sky Building was an unexpected opportunity for your wife, a professional architect. We really had a great time today. Thank you very much.
