5.00Had a really great time with our guide Ryu. The places he took us too were interesting and we would not have found them on our own. We are really glad we had this experience with such a cool, native, guide. He was engaging, friendly, entertained us, and was just a really cool guy!

5.00Convenient and easy meeting place near the iconic train exhibit. Our guide, Ryu, was a pleasure, and he was very well spoken in English! Loved eating the gyoza, udon, skewers, and dessert in an area where the local population lives—away from the common tourist paths! It gives you a better understanding of the local lifestyle which is important to me as a visitor! Thank you, Ryu!
Great food and well organized
