Latest reviews from our guests

    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.

    The one-day trip was awesome. We love to have Kenji as our tour guide. He is very kind and a good photographer. We'd like to have him for our future trip, next time.

    We had Robert as our guide and he was excellent. He was able to answer every question we had and we had an amazing time. We saw a few touristic spots we wanted to see but then Robert also showed us some hidden gems. We loved it and will book it for the next time in Tokyo as well.

    Yuko completely customized our tour to focus on our area of interest. She gave us great historical insights and cultural ones too. She took us to a very authentic stand up Sake bar and helped us to sample two kinds of Sake. She also provided us with very practical help around other sights to see and how to navigate the very confusing subway, metro, train situation.
