Our tour guide Susumu was amazing! It was our first day in Japan, he helped us get our metro passes. Explained how all of the transportation systems worked and how to navigate them. For our tour Susumu asked us about our interests in more detail and made side stops for things that we would love. It made for the perfect first day in Japan.
Amazing! 10 out of 10

Momoko-San made all our dreams come true. She was so great and planning and communicating. She was a wonderful addition to our traveling party and went above and beyond.

Tomo Y was an incredible hostess for our tour. We went to every place we wanted to see and more! I would recommend this tour fully to anyone, safely moving around Tokyo at the pace you desire. We will definitely do this again!

We had a very authentic guide (Tim) who took us through less obvious spots and shrines and temples. Very patient, kept pace reasonable, and encouraged us to stop at small shops to enjoy local goods and food. Really recommend doing this in Tokyo at the beginning of any visit.
Seichii was great....

Seichii was great. Contacted us multiple times before our day tour to ask what we would like to do and see during the walking tour. Easy to communicate with. Knowledgeable. Time spent was well worth it.
