“Japan /Tokyo Vacation”
Koji, A great tour guide. He was knowledgeable and informative and kind. Koji was flexible and willing to be spontaneous in our tour by fitting a few bullet train trips, to towns that we decided to go to, on the same day. Without Koji, we would have been challenged to find our way around this Magical city. We would highly recommend him without reservation . Eddie and Michelle

Eddie the tour was epic covering the finest ramen, sushi, coffee, whiskey, matcha and even cherry blossoms in Tokyo! Also it was special to take Shinkansen to Kyoto for a day trip. Thank you for making the memorable tour possible!

“Amazing experience ”
Koji was an amazing guide. He had so much information on all the attractions he took us to. Koji went above and beyond to facilitate me with my restricted mobility, helping us get rail cards and ordering taxi's for us. Koji took us to all the spots where my gamer son was interested in. Took us to amazing food spots and recommend the best souvenirs to buy that were actually made in Japan. NKoji was patient, kind and laid back. I would definitely recommend him as a guide and would 100% use his services again. We are extremely happy with his services. Thank you Koji

Jade the tour was the culmination of what Tokyo has to offer covering only the best food, crafts and entertainment with the limited time! I'm truly glad I could do that on your day in Tokyo. Thank you for making it possible.
