  • A Perfect First Visit to Tokyo with a Wonderful Guide Usha

    Our first visit to Tokyo could not have been more special, thanks to Usha. From the moment we booked, she reached out with kindness and professionalism to create a customized itinerary just for us. She met us right at our hotel, and from that moment on, we felt like we were exploring the city with a knowledgeable friend rather than just a guide. Usha led us effortlessly through Tokyo’s highlights — starting with the peaceful beauty of Meiji Jingu, then into the energy of Takeshita Street and Omotesando. She showed us the perfect spots for photos, always ready to capture wonderful memories for us. In Shibuya, we experienced the excitement of the famous Shibuya Crossing and learned the heartwarming story of Hachiko, before heading to Asakusa where the atmosphere around Sensoji Temple felt magical. What stood out most was not only Usha’s knowledge of the city, but her warmth and thoughtfulness throughout the day. She made sure we were comfortable, engaged us with stories, and made the entire experience flow naturally. By the time she guided us back to our hotel, we felt like we had discovered Tokyo in the best possible way. Thanks to Usha, this day will always be one of our fondest memories of Japan. If you’re visiting Tokyo, we cannot recommend her enough — she is simply wonderful!

    Really enjoyable day in Tokyo tailored to what we wanted to do and see. Having been to Tokyo before we wanted to do more shopping than sights.

  • Top notch guide to a vast and fascinating city

    Eriko was well-informed, charming, open, and good-humored, despite the ghastly heat and humidity of a Tokyo August. She never failed to ask about our needs, and brought us to a very good local restaurant— one that tourists would not know of. I asked her if she would be available next year when we are scheduled to return to Tokyo. What greater recommendation can I possibly give to her?

  • Brilliant tour from Cruise ship. Family of 6

    We were met from the ship by our Guide, Akuri. Akuri had preplanned our tour and emailed it We had made a couple of changes including a large last minute one. We enjoyed using the local monorail and subway but definitely needed a Guide's help. Akuri was fantastic at meeting our requests and needs. He was very knowledgeable and interesting to talk to. We had a wonderful day in Tokyo with Akuri. Thank you so much

  • amazing tour guide.

    We have the most wonderful tour guide. Meg took care of me and my family really well. She made the experience worth doing it over again. Despite the very hot temperature, we were still able to visit few outdoor walks especially the shrine which was very special to us. The dining experience she took us to was very new and authentic Japanese custom. She extended her time to spend with us by making sure we got to the right transportation heading home. We want to give her more than 10 out of 10 rating .
