Our guide Yeonmi was just a godsend, booked online at the last minute. She helped us navigate Tokyo with great insights into the culture and ways of the Japanese people. She was funny, considerate and helpful to the utmost. Her advice on how best to utilise our short time in Tokyo was invaluable in making the most of our trip. We cannot recommend her enough.

Our guide Naoko was amazing. She was very knowledgeable and accommodated our requests for specific things and areas to see. She navigated the metro for us and moved fast so we saw a lot. She is very passionate about her job and it shows. She even looked after our two boys ages 10 & 7 when crossing a street and in crowded areas. We have a friend for life!

Our lovely guide Yuriko met us at our hotel and we had a great day with a perfect mix of «old» and «modern» Tokyo - just as we had asked for. Yuriko was extremeny knowledgeable and made sure the day was fun for both the parents and the kids. This is a lovely way to see Tokyo and we highly recommend the private guided tour for a flexible and really great day! Thanks so much!
