5.00On the night I booked, I was lucky enough to be the only guest who booked the tour, so it was just me and the guide Taira for the evening. I had a great time because he let me modify the itinerary. We went shopping and he helped me find an amazing pearl necklace for my wife, acting as an interpreter so I could talk to the shop owner. We visited shops I wouldn't have been able to find on my own, and he helped me navigate the JR subway lines for the first time.
Awesome Experience in Nakano!
