Yohei was amazing and gave us the time to check out the different shops. He made a point of finding shops for my 14yr old daughter.

We had a wonderful start of our trip with our guide Kay. He was super nice, showed us how to use the metro, get our cards, in a quick and simple way then showed us a great mix of nature, temples and bustling streets and the side ones we should visit! We recommend him to anyone who wants a positive, kind and enthusiastic guide in Tokyo! Thanks, Kay!
Great tour!!

We had a great experience walking around Tokyo with Toshi. He was extremely knowledgeable and took us to the sites that my family of four enjoyed. He also provided great recommendations for the remainder of our time in Japan, including spots in Hiroshima and Kyoto.
