About Tour Guide Hiroshi S.

Thank you for taking your time to write a review. I also had a great time with all of you yesterday! It was sunny in Tokyo in the morning, but it started raining shortly after we arrived in Nikko. The weather wasn't great, but I'm glad to hear you enjoyed the tour. At Rinnoji Temple, we were able to watch the Goma ritual. I think you got a sense of the temple's solemn atmosphere. At Toshogu Shrine, we saw the Yomeimon Gate, said to be the most magnificent in Japan, as well as the famous Three Wise Monkeys and the Sleeping Cat. We also enjoyed the riverside promenade and the botanical garden, which offered a different atmosphere from the temples and shrines. I will continue to deepen my knowledge about Japanese history, culture, customs, etc., so please feel free to ask me anything if you have the opportunity to come to Japan again. Let's enjoy Japan together!

Thank you for taking your time to write a review. The tour got off to a terrible start. Even though we had a tent, we had to wait for a taxi for almost an hour in a pouring rain. However, I enjoyed talking with you while we waited. The rain stopped by the time we took the Sumida River cruise in the afternoon. We were able to enjoy views of Tsukiji, the Ryogoku Kokugikan (sumo stadium), and the Tokyo Skytree from the boat. From the Skytree, at a height of 450 meters, we could see Shinjuku, Tokyo Bay, etc. If you ever plan to come to Japan, please contact me again. Besides Tokyo, there are many other wonderful places like Nikko, Kamakura, Hakone, etc. Let’s enjoy Japan together again!

Thank you for the review. I am very sorry that you were not able to go up the Skytree. But I did not buy the wrong tickets. I purchased the tickets for handicapped persons at your request, but I learned for the first time that day from a Skytree staff member that tickets for handicapped persons would no longer be sold to foreigners starting in April. Furthermore, there were no descriptions about tickets for foreigners. I purchased the tickets in March, so I explained this to the Skytree staff, had the tickets issued, and gave them to you. I left after confirming that you had entered, but I later heard that you were told you couldn't enter. It's a shame I wasn't there to negotiate. While this was Skytree's fault, I also bear some responsibility. I apologize. I will take the utmost care to ensure this does not happen again. I hope you won't be discouraged by this and will come to Japan again.
