Imperial Palace

**This tour does not include access to the inside of the Imperial Palace** The current Imperial Palace is located on the former site of Edo Castle, a large park area surrounded by moats and massive stone walls in the center of Tokyo, a short walk from Tokyo Station. It is the residence of Japan's Imperial Family. Edo Castle used to be the seat of the Tokugawa shogun who ruled Japan from 1603 until 1867. In 1868, the shogunate was overthrown, and the country's capital and imperial residence were moved from Kyoto to Tokyo. In 1888 construction of a new Imperial Palace was completed. The palace was once destroyed during World War Two, and rebuilt in the same style, afterwards.

Felt a bit like a forced march; could be greatly improved if guide listened to the guests and slowed down/focus on fewer sites as requested.
Wonderful customizable trip

Had a great time and Masa took very good care of us - got us out of the airport with a breeze … on trains efficiently We totally made our time with him customizable - we changed the times of the tour, we changed the city we were going to, we changed the sites we wanted to see, and he did it all for us -just the way we wanted it
The best use of a day for a full Tokyo experience

Shuji was punctual, carried a "Welcome" sign (no chance of us missing one another at the very busy Narita airport) and was extremely helpful as a translator. He expertly guided me through the bullet train and the subway system as he showed me the wonderful landmarks I had chosen from the available sightseeing locations. Shuji even used a small flag that he carried at the very populous Buddha temple so if I lost sight of him within the crush of people the flag would lead me back! I appreciated the extra thought that was implemented in the tour for a foreigner. His food and sake recommendations were also fabulous. An extremely kind, humorous, patient and knowledgeable tour guide. I highly recommend him!

We really enjoyed our layover tour with Yoshi! He was very knowledgeable and curated a tour based on our requests and sprinkled in some items of his own based on the various locations. It was wonderful finding a guide that would meet us at Narita airport. We got to see SO much in a limited amount of time. While we traveled between our various stops, Yoshi would share stories, facts and pictures from the neighborhoods etc that we were passing. Yoshi was cognizant of our timing as well. He even accompanied us back to the airport, helped us pick up our stored baggage, and helped us navigate the large Narita airport to get our boarding passes and find the security line. I would definitely recommend this tour and our guide, Yoshi! It was amazing!
