Thank you for the excellent tour review with wonderful photos, Rosemary-san & Gerard-san. I am glad to hear that you had a splendid day out with me. You stayed at Asakusa, where the most popular touristic site in Tokyo. We visited other typical spots. I felt that you were truly interested in Japanese culture and history. You asked me very insightful questions. I enjoyed guiding you. I know you are still in Japan. Have a nice trip!
“Great, informative tour”
Our family of 5 had a great day with Toshi. We visited many sites in Tokyo that, without his expert guidance, would have taken us days to find. Toshi was very knowledgeable and patient, he ensured that he included areas we would all enjoy and he took care to find out where we had been so we didn’t revisit these sites. His expert navigation of the metro was incredible! We had been a little nervous to try sushi independently, so we enjoyed the opportunity to share lunch with Toshi at a restaurant in the fish market.

Thank you for the splendid tour review, Kirsty-san. Your family members are all excellent person and have good sense for Japanese culture. I enjoyed guiding Tokyo. You clearly informed me of what kind of tour you would like to do. It was easy to arrange the itinerary. You have nice challenging spirits for trying Japanese food. I was happy to walk in Tokyo with you. It was something like that I introduced Tokyo for my old friends. I know you are still in Japan. Enjoy the rest of the days for your memorial journey.
“Toshihiro’s THE BEST!”
Toshihiro gave us an amazing first day impression of Tokyo. His present day and historical knowledge of Tokyo is phenomenal. He showed us the most essential sites, gave us the background history and knew exactly where to take the best photos! I will call upon him again the next time I am in Tokyo. He is an asset to go with guide.

Thank you for the marvelous tour review with excellent photos, Dana-san. I am glad to hear that you have an amazing impression of Tokyo on the first day. You must have got the terrible jet lag, but you were cheerful. I was surprised as you walked around Shibuya by yourselves after the regular tour. I am sure that you recover from jet lag now. Please enjoy the rest of days in Japan.
