Latest reviews from our guests

    Ayaka was a delight, she catered the day to not only meet but exceed our expectations. I had my 72yo mother with me, so Ayaka made sure to take frequent breaks and choose entry and exit points at the stations and venues like Asakusa & Uena that were accessible by elevator. She introduced us to the vibrant side of Tokyo with off the beaten path coffee spots, amazing souvenirs stalls at the Ameyoko Street market, and little known food delights at Tsukiji Fish Market. Brilliant private tour! Highly recommend
