Latest reviews from our guests

Kejei met us at our hotel and explained our itinerary. We added the Sanja Matsuri festival to the plan and it fit right in to his itinerary for the day. We went for an enjoyable sushi place for lunch. Kejei explained so many things about Tokyo and Japanese culture. He showed us how to navigate the train system and gave us ideas for the remainder of our vacation. An excellent guide we highly recommend!!!

Wir hatten eine tolle Tour in Tokio mit Marc. Wir waren bereits letztes Jahr ein paar Tage in Tokio, trotzdem war es unglaublich abwechlungsreich und wir konnten viel Neues erkunden. Marc ging spontan auf unsere Wünsche ein, was uns sehr zugesagt hat. We had a great tour in Tokyo with Marc. We were in Tokyo for a few days last year, but it was still incredibly varied and we were able to explore a lot of new things. Marc spontaneously responded to our wishes, which really pleased us.

Daigo was very concerned about meeting our expectations. It was raining so we needed to improvise and we still saw the highlights. Even better, Daigo helped us learn the subway system so we could feel confident getting around on our own after the tour was over.
