Unfortunately, just prior to our tour, we went to pick up our train tickets since our train was shortly after our walking tour was to end. We were unable to get them, even though I had my card and PIN number. Yuko spoke to the agent at the window AND an agent on the phone. She was so helpful. We got a late start, but ended up seeing a good bit of the area. Yuko was a great guide OUT of the train station also.
