My reviews

    On my first day in Tokyo I was especially interested in markets, food and shrines. Thanks to Chiara, we did all three. She is extremely knowledgeable about Japanese food, and happy to explain ingredients, flavors, and customs. We did a lot of walking -- which was great -- and we navigated the complex but efficient Tokyo subway system. In all, a perfect first day in a magnificent city.

    Great day! Our guide Chiara met us at our hotel and we began our food walking tour of Tokyo/ Shibuya. Chiara showed us the highlights and nuances of this area and chose some very fun food stops along the way. Our group of 5 had some dietary restrictions and Chiara was able to accommodate all of us! She is very knowledgeable and fun to be with.
