5.00This was a great tour of the Tokyo Imperial Gardens that combined scenery and history in the tour. Mei was our tour guide and she was very knowledgeable and patient with our group. She blended historical knowledge and pop culture when giving the tour.

4.00I visited on the last day of my Japan holiday and so I shouldn't have been surprised that it was not flat. A few steep slopes to be mindful of. Sato was a lovely guide who despite only having been a guide for a handful of weeks shared a lot of information with us. She was very interesting, friendly and fun. What a pretty park.
Traffic is bad in the Golden Week

5.00We ran into very heavy traffic on May 4th and couldn't finish the full itinerary. However our guide Liu and the bus driver tried their best so that we can have a satisfactory tour.
