5.00Thoroughly enjoyed the day out with our guide Nori. Without him we would have been literally lost & seen nowhere near the amount of sites. Nori guidance was top notch.
A great and way to get to know some parts of Osaka in good company

5.00As part of our honeymoon in Japan, we had a great tour of Osaka with Yuka-san. Yuka was enthusiastic, helpful, patient and always took care with us when moving from point A and point B. The hot weather didn't keep us from getting around interesting parts in Osaka and certainly didn't keep Yuka's smile from giving us energy! We are thankful for having had the opportunity and wish her the best.
Excellent private tour of Tokyo

5.00We had only a day and a half to "see" Tokyo. Our first of two private tours was with Seizo Kamiuto. He took us on foot and by train to nearly all the major sites. He was knowledgeable, pleasant, and articulate in English (strengthened by his two years living in England). We were very pleased with his service and could not recommend him more favorably.
