Reviews
“Tokyo One Day Tour ”
We toured with Kahoko on 12-29-25 with our family. She was highly knowledgeable on Tokyo and spoke excellent English. First we visited the Tsukiji Fish market which was a lot of fun. Sensoji Temple and Nakamise shopping district, which is great for souvenirs, were next, followed by a Ramen Lunch right in that area which was amazing. We then made our way to Asakusa and toured that great city. Kahoko walked at a nice pace to move us along and kept us on track to make our subways and trains. She even took us to the kitchen district so my daughter could buy a nice knife. I would give Kahoko an excellent five stars for her tour and one extra star for being such a lovely, happy, knowledgeable woman.

Thank you very much for the kind review! I was very happy to get an opportunity to share your precious family time. You must have been restless to organize a family trip when members live in distant places along with unexpected flight cancelation or else. Still you seemed fully enjoying your stay in Japan. I myself was happy together. If your family gets bigger in the future, you will be even more busier and happier definitely. I hope your family's forever Goodluck. Still, take care of yourself, mom !
“Caring, wonderful nature and funny!”
We just finished a day tour of Tokyo with Kahoko and had such a wonderful day! Kahoko helped us plan what we wanted to do before we arrived by replying to all our messages quickly. She met us with a big smile at our hotel and we felt like we had known her for ages after we had just met! She navigates all the stations with ease and nothing was a problem. We have two teenage kids so she was happy to go with the flow of they wanted to stop and look at something. She took us to an amazing lunch spot, and many other interesting places we just wouldn’t have found on our own! As a family we love walking (we call it tramping in NZ) and we were surprised that she was fitter than us until we found out that she runs marathons as well! Kahoko truly is a superwoman and we would very much take other tour with her again. Maybe when we come back to run the Tokyo Marathon!

Thank you very much for the prompt and wonderful review! It was very encouraging and touching for me. I really enjoyed every moment with a terrific family like you all, full of smiles and warmth of caring each others. I am sure your family's happiness forever. Probably, you try to enter Tokyo marathon in near future. I do hope your good luck and definitely want to cheer for you on the day. As you are young enough to challenge major six marathons, you will be able to complete them because you have already finished three of them. If things go successfully, please don't forget to notice me as you have my phone number. Anyway, I am looking forward to seeing you again! Until then, please stay fit and healthy!
“Kindhearted and energetic”
We had a wonderful 2-day tour with Kahoko. She was incredibly informative and caring, especially with our teenager who sprained his ankle just two days before the trip. He was walking with a boot and crutches, and Kahoko made sure he always had the option of using an elevator whenever possible. Although we’ve visited Tokyo many times before, this was our kids’ first time, and it was fantastic to have Kahoko share the history and insights of the sites we visited. She is a master at navigating the subway and the city, making the trip more manageable and efficient. My kids said it felt like having their caring grandma with them, but don’t let that fool you—Kahoko is incredibly energetic! She outwalked all of us, and we’re a pretty fit family. We highly recommend her for anyone looking to explore Tokyo!

Thank you very much for the kindest review! It is highly encouraging and gives me another motivation for the job. I had such terrific 2 days with a wonderful family : a successful doctor and sweet dad, an elegant and caring mom, my favorite nice guy, and a beloved dad's boy. Especially, the injured young man amazed me a lot. He never complained under the full-day walking. It's not so common as his age. I know that because I have been working as a tutor for teenagers more than 20 years. And he recovered quite well just in a short time ,I mean overnight ! I seldom envy people's youth but his quick getting-well condition made me do so. Anyway, it was a great pleasure for me to help you even a little on your memorable trip. I really appreciate your cooperation and tolerance. I hope you will come back to Japan some day soon. Until then, take care!
