5.00Had a great time with Renuad, he was very knowledgeable about the places we visited and especially navigating the Japan Rail system. Great guy and good personality. I would refer him to my friends and family members.

5.00I thought it was going to be a driven 5-7 hr tour with a vehicle but it wasn't so beware. It turned out that we used public transportation all day long and walked about 20K steps in the process.....I was very happy that this tour was really diving deep into the local culture with the subway transportation and small towns we visited. Renault our tour guide was laid back and perfect for the tour. His knowledge was fantastic and he was there for our every need. We were very luck to have had him for our tour as he made the experience a memorable one. Overall, this is a great way to see some of the districts of Japan with someone who know the area. Thank you Renault !!!!

5.00Everything was perfect and customized to our desired. The tour was not rushed and we took all the pictures we wanted on every spot. We explore Tokyo in a day, ate the best sushi and ended up in a special place. The tour guide gives multiple food recommendations

5.00Had a fun time, lots of information provided at each place we stopped, very flexible with timings within the tour; you can spend longer or a shorter time, and Renaud was simply lovely and respectful - definitely would recommend for all, but especially for solo female travelers 🙏🏼
