    We could not have asked for a more perfect first day in Tokyo. Martina is an extraordinary guide and put together an extremely thoughtful itinerary. Lunch was amazing and she took us to a number of gems that we never would have found on our own as well as made some great recommendations for our remaining time in Tokyo. Simply wonderful!!!

    If you get the opportunity to choose your tour guide, select Martina! She was FABULOUS! She was knowledgeable, patient, kind, and managed our time so well that we got to see all of what was on our list and then some! We never felt rushed to move on to the next destination. In fact, she managed our time so well that we got to see what we had on our list and the activities she suggested to enhance our experience! What a treat! We got a FULL EXPERIENCE of life in Tokyo! We visited Shrines and Temples as well as the older parts of Tokyo and the newer parts! We got to see where people lived and where kids went to school. As someone who understands our western mindset, she answered our questions fully understanding where we coming from. But with that said, she gave us an appreciation for the Eastern mindset. What an experience! We got to try new foods-I ate octopus balls (yum) and a whipped cream bakery bun (double yum). We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Martina as tour guide. Our tour was wonderful...
