5.00Jero was absolutely one of the best tour guides ever! We covered so much of Tokyo (5 different areas) in one day. He gave us great historical context and all kinds of useful information about the Japanese culture. A 5 star tour!

5.00Highly recommended! The contact with Jero before the tour was warm and the tour with Vanessa was very informative and really great for us. It was like knowing each other for a while and taking a tour with a friend. A great way to get a slightly different impression of Tokyo!

5.00Jero did a superlative job of guiding us through Tokyo and "teaching" us customs and history of the areas. He researched the public transportation routings, even did a dry run to assure us the most efficient travel. He even taught me the Gemini app for fixing photos. I had a list of about 15 locations & experiences for him to plan. Gardens, temples, shrines, NO amusements (i.e. Team). We hit them ALL plus several, including lunch in tiny restaurants - our requests. Taught us subway navigation and etiquette...all the "important" stuff. He is extraordinarily personable. Navigated subway at rush hour. What fun. Absolutely NO glitches. We only had 1 1/2 days and we compressed about a week's worth of locations into that. We moved faster than he expected we could. But stopped and admired (photographed many) the cherry blossoms, landscapes, & horticulture. All major gardens, several minor garden gems, shrines, temples, 5th Avenue, Chinese market, theatre district, toe-sock shopping. Stayed in Shinjuku City, traveled as far as Shibuyu & Asakusa. Offered many prayers and shook sticks for fortunes. Worked on our chopstick techniques - or lack thereof. Made us comfortable in the midst of thousands of Tokyo residents. The city if really, really quiet and polite. Now I need to go back and see some museums and sit and eat more leisurely. I'd do it again and have totally endorsed him to friends who are going to Tokyo. These days were after already 21 days in the East China Sea area.
