Yokohama Private Car Tours

“Excellent Tour Guide!”

We were visiting the Yokohama area from Southern California for a couple of days and wanted to take a day tour of Kamakura with all its Buddhist shrines and temples. Yuri Tan did a fantastic job with our tour. She understood our needs and paid attention to the pace we requested. She picked us up at our hotel in Yokohama and drove us to several shrines and temples. She gave us a detailed commentary about the history of the particular shrine and its relevance in medieval Japan. Great history lesson. She stayed in contact with us before our trip so we knew exactly when and where to meet. For lunch, she took us to a great little restaurant! I asked about where I could pick up a US to Japan AC adapter. She took care to stop for a store and waited while I went and picked up the adapter. Highly recommend Yuri Tan. She is punctual, pays attention to your specific needs and is overall very personable, easy to talk to and a great guide overall.

“Thank you for the amazing time at Yokohama!!”

Engaging Kota-san as our private driver-guide at Yokohama was of the best decision of our Yokohama trip! Yokohama was our very first stop in Japan, and I had a wishlist of places I wanted to see. I was not sure if we could realistically fit everything into one day, but Kota-san made it happen seamlessly. Right from the start, he was incredibly responsive and patient. He listened to what we wanted and worked together to fine-tune our itinerary. He also accommodated our request to start later in the afternoon so we could catch Yokohama's daytime charm as well as its stunning night views. On top of that, he went out of his way to book a dinner reservation for us at Hotenkaku Tenshimpo in Chinatown before the tour, which we very much appreciated. Despite our ambitious list, everything was planned so efficiently that we checked off every single spot within seven hours: Iseyama Kotaijingu Shrine, Bashamichi Street, the Red Brick Warehouse, Motomachi, Yamashita Park, Chinatown, Marine Tower, and gorgeous views as he drove us across the Yokohama Bay Bridge. Amazingly, it never felt rushed. We had plenty of time to take photos, explore, and soak in the atmosphere. Kota-san guided us through great walking routes and scenic spots we never would have found on our own. He was also remarkably thoughtful with photos, spotting beautiful backdrops before we even noticed them. Some of my favorite photos from the entire trip were taken by him. More than just a guide, Kota-san was fantastic company. Conversation flowed easily, and the cultural exchanges made the day feel personal, like exploring with a knowledgeable local friend rather than just a tour. It truly set the tone for the rest of our journey. I would definitely recommend Kota-San if anyone is looking for guided tours in Yokohama! Thank you for all the amazing memories at Yokohama! 本当にありがとうございました!

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a thoughtful and heartfelt review. It was truly an honor to welcome you to Yokohama, especially knowing that it was the very first stop of your journey through Japan. You shared many places you hoped to visit, so I carefully planned the day to make sure you could experience both Yokohama’s daytime charm and its beautiful night views without ever feeling rushed. I also genuinely enjoyed communicating with you before the tour and fine-tuning the itinerary together. I’m very happy that everything worked out well, including your dinner reservation! It also makes me incredibly happy to know that some of the photos I took became favorites from your entire trip! The time I spent with all of you also became a very special memory for me. When you return to Japan, I sincerely hope we can meet again and explore another part of the country together. Thank you again for such an unforgettable day! Kota

“Guide to Mt. Figi”

Despite a heavy traffic jam that added to Andy's drive time, he made our experience awesome! He showed us areas we wouldn't have known about, travelled to small village near mountain with history & shops, took us to lunch at a great local restaurant that wasn't full of tourists, and we got to the boat ride to see mountain with 10 minutes to spare, all with the unexpected delays in traffic. Absolutely wonderful day spent, Andy was an excellent guide. Highly recommend!

Hi Andrew and Tammy, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review! Even though the traffic tried to throw us a curveball, you guys were absolutely fantastic sports about it. I’m so glad we managed to beat the clock and get you guys to the boat ride with the last 10 minutes —talk about perfect timing! It was a true pleasure showing you those hidden village spots - those little ponds with big salmon fish inside, sharing a bit of the local history, and introducing you to one of the best lunch spots and also trying the local food - Houtou noodles ! Hosting you both was an absolute blast. You're welcome back anytime, and I'd love to show you even more hidden gems next time you're in Japan! Warm regards, Andy
