Lovely walking tour,...

Published on May, 2025

Lovely walking tour, which covered Nezu Shrine, and the relaxing old town of Yanaka Ginza. Chihero shared information about the town and took us through many back streets to check out traditional houses and small shops that we definitely would not have found on our own!

A walking tour of Old Town Tokyo

Published on May, 2025

This was a nice, relaxing walk off the beaten path and away from the multitudes. The experence was made all the more positive by the tour guide Mai, who with her tremendous knowledge of the history and the culture of the place, her friendly demeanor and her ability to adjust to the needs and interests of the adults and the children.

We love Hina!

Published on May, 2025

Hina was an incredible tour guide. We were in Japan for 2 weeks and this was one of our favorite tours. Hina was really knowledgeable, kind and moved at our pace. Every location she took us to she allowed us to spend the time we wanted there. She didn't rush us at all. She also took us through the local neighborhoods and told us all about the shops, hotels and restaurants. We highly recommend this tour as well as staying in the area. Thank you so much Hina!!

Our guide was great, saw...

Published on Apr, 2025

Our guide was great, saw Azalea garden and Shinto shrine, and a street of Buddhist cemeteries. Tanaka neighborhood was quite interesting.

Quiet Tokyo

Published on Apr, 2025

Mark was an excellent host. This tour is serene and almost tranquil amidst the hectic of everyday Tokyo, and Mark did a great job explaining the various stations and localities along the way.
