Fantastic tour, Taira was an excellent guide, he was very knowledgeable and despite the dreadful humidity he kept us all engaged, including our teenagers. Covered far more than we could have on our own. Great was to tick off the big sights if Tokyo. Definitely recommend, especially with teens, the guide through the shrine was particularly worthwhile.

Thanks Rin and trainee guides Aya and friend for a wonderful tour. Interesting, relaxed and fun- we had a great day exploring the major sites. All of you went above and beyond with answering questions, providing recommendations and even guiding us out of the station after the tour ended. Arigato.

We had a great day. We loved the flexibility and the fact that we could go at our on pace. Without the private tour we would have needed to catch transport and we never would have seen such amazing landmarks on our own. It was wonderful to have an English speaking driver.

Great time with our gide Nathaniel and his assistant. Quiz time was quite funny. There were enough time for each temple and no rush.

Ali was brilliant. His driving knowledge saved us time. He is friendly and very knowledgeable. Great experience.
