Reviews
“Day tour with Kahoko”
What can I say, we saw so much in one day, I think we did about 10 different trains/subway. A great way to orientate yourself with getting around Tokyo. Kahoko is a fantastic guide who adapts to what you want to do. We would highly recommend her to anyone wanting to get to know Tokyo. Kahoko is a lovely person who feels like part of the family.

Thank you very much for the kind review ! We walked a lot ! I am very impressed with your toughness. I have experienced several challenging tours like ours this time but most of them were honeymooners. You were really amazing. Also you have already got command of using transportation at ease. Probably, your rest of trip will go smoothly. For now, please enjoy beautiful Kamakura !
“Best meal in Tokyo”
Kahoko took us to Shinjuku for our night tour and the meal we had was the best so far in Tokyo. You would not know about this restaurant unless someone took you. Golden Gai area was so interesting, next time we will have to try one of the little bars. Kahoko feels like a friend rather than a guide, we are so glad we chose her as our Guide.

You are too kind to give me another review! I had such a lovely evening with you. You were always cooperative and ready to enjoy every occasion even though places were so crowded. Also,I am happy to know you enjoyed dinner last night. Thank you for kindly treating me. It was a pleasure for me you found a favorite sake. The sight of you tasting sake with a good and relaxing atmosphere just made me heartwarming. I hope your fine chef got some inspiration from some of the dishes. Your joyful Japan tour will keep going. Please take care and come back with your family next time !
“Go, go, Kahoko!”
We loved our tour with Kahoko on Monday. She helped us navigate the subway and trains on our first day in Tokyo. We went to a few residential neighborhoods and a park. It was a great intro into Japanese culture and the like. AND because Tokyo is such a small city, WE RAN INTO KAHOKO AGAIN ON FRIDAY when she was giving a tour to some Australian clients. Thank you so much!
Kahoko K.
Thank you very much for the nice and witty review! You were all energetic and ready to enjoy every minute in Tokyo, so all I had to do was just being with you and spending lovely time together. I am really a lucky person to have had another chance to see you !! You should come back again because there are more to see in Japan. I will be alive until then. Thank you very much again and take care!
