This was an excellent tour and Sowa. our tour guide, did a fantastic job showing us around, including some areas we would not have known when searching online. Sowa is friendly and answered all our questions about the area, history and food. I highly recommend this tour.

We had another great experience! Both my wife and I love history and appreciate learning from locals, and this tour definitely met our expectations. Sowa was very informative, took plenty of pictures, and even sent them to us afterward. He spoke excellent English and was extremely helpful throughout the tour.

We really enjoyed this tour; just the 2 of us with our guide Roka. A really nice guy who passed on a lot of interesting information about both the Senso-ji Temple and various street foods (a good variety by the way). We then walked down Kappabashi street full of kitchenware (buying 2 sake cups to use as egg cups at home!). We had time to visit the Higashi Hongan-ji Temple which was as calm and tranquil as the Senso-ji was busy and crowded (a much better experience). A great couple of hours.

This was such a great tour . It was just us and Ryota , our guide . We had a great explore through the streets and the temple and having Ryota made it extra enjoyable . He extended his service to us by guiding us to our next destination through the train system.

It was like a private tour. The guide was fantastic. Great info & super personality. Took lots of time explaining the area & sites. Took pictures of us (which we haven’t received yet, ) at multiple places.
