Yokohama is so electrifying and energetic that the entire city feels like a brightly-lit playground. From watching adorable red pandas at the Nogeyama Zoological Gardens to being hypnotized by impossibly intricate model trains whizzing around at the Hara Model Railway Museum or simply exploring the city’s trendiest shopping and cafe streets like Motomachi, you’ll discover what makes Yokohama so exciting.
From browsing 100-yen stores for wacky souvenirs and konbini convenience stores for Japanese candy, your host will reveal things to you and your kids that you never knew existed! And if hunger strikes, you could pop into one of entertainment district Noge’s pocket-sized restaurants for delicious fried skewers of just about anything!

Madoka, our fabulous guide in Yokohama, feels like a new friend. We had a wonderful exchange of cultures, educational practices & travel stories. She was as interested in our lives as we were in hers. Using the train, metro & 16k steps later we made the most of our time together. We highly recommend Madoka & give her a five star plus rating! Experiences such as this is why we travel.

Madoka provided us with a wonderful overview of beautiful Yokohama. We traveled 16k steps by foot AND used both the train & subway system. We highly recommend that you allow Madoka to tailor your tour time together to meet your needs. Madoka feels like a new friend!

Before we met Hiroko emailed some additional questions to better understand our interests and objectives for the day. We mentioned I was experiencing some mobility issues, for which she adapted the itinerary. When we met in person, we confirmed a strategy and were able to accomplish everything we intended within my limitations. Since we were planning to use public transit during our stay, she helped us purchase the correct transit cards. Since it was our first time in Japan, she offered a quick history of Japan and its culture; along with lots of other tidbits too numerous to list. She matched her pace to ours. It was a perfect day for us. We would certainly use her services again, and enthusiastically recommend her to others.
