We visited three restaurants over lunch time in a traditional area of Tokyo, queued at a popular gallery for dessert and then enjoyed a coffee stop with our guide. The selection of restaurants was varied and excellent being places that we would not have visited on our own. Four were booked but the food (and drink) ordered at each was so generous that we cancelled the last stop. Communications pre the tour were excellent and care was taken to establish our food preferences and dietary requirements. Instead of the promised three hours, our tour lasted well over four hours. Our guide could not have been more helpful and attentive. I highly recommend this experience.
Selda was an excellent guide. We highly recommend her if you are American for her strong English speaking ability. We were guided through the Samurai and Geisha districts on a rainy day. We also visited a few local shops, the Omicho market, and had a local lunch. We finished out with the Kenrokuen garden and castle wall. It feels like we packed a lot into a single day.
Our guide has spent time planning our trip just after I booked the excursion, taking care of details what our preferences.
Within 4 hours we covered different aspects of the city, from historial shrine, street scapes, witness people queling up for buy their favorate snacks, shopping streets with stunning waterfalls, nice city park with lakes and a lovely Japanese gardens, and few traditional residential streets. Experiencing travel on the underground train system to various sections of the city and as well as walking. A very nice experience!
Shin is by far the best tour guide I have had on this app to date. Despite a very short time window we were able to accomplish a lot. He customized the tour for my interests and we were very efficient with getting from place to place. Both of us loving history, we learned a lot from each other. I also enjoyed how empathetic and supportive he was. I was having some back pain so he took a quick detour into a shopping mall to help me out. He also gave me a lot of advice for navigating the city on my own after the tour. He was very personable and I enjoyed talking with him about not just the city but life in general. Again I could not recommend Shin enough. Were it possible I would give him six out of 5 stars he is that good!
Shaan showed my wife an amazing time and the 2 hours flew by. She is so knowledgeable about not only the nigh life in Tokyo but also the culture. We would highly recommend this tour but even more so if Shaan is your guide. 5 stars all around! Thank you Shaan for showing us a great time!
Scott North gave my wife and I an amazing tour of Kyoto. He is so incredibly knowledgeable and friendly and we truly enjoyed our time with him. We would highly recommend this tour for anyone wanting to learn more about Kyoto and it's rich history...and if Scott is available I would suggest requesting him for this tour. 5 stars!!!

When taking this tour in Tokyo buy a one day travel pass. Include a visit to the Tokyo Tower
and go to the top.
