Perfect guide for a family outing. - We (parents and two children (9y, 12y)) had a very pleasant trip with Suji (the guide). He helped us get IC cards and told interesting stories about the sites we visited. Suji gave us some interesting insights in Japanese history, myths and religion. He was very well prepared, patient and thoughtful.

Great day in Tokyo - We had a great time with our guide Chas Yokoi. He is a good chat and knows a lot about japanese history, especially the samurai era.

Great tour! - Great tour! Our tour guide, Nobuko, was very knowledgeable of the history of Aizuwakamatsu and went above and beyond with escorting us around the area. She even help arrange our transportation after and gave us some small souvenirs as gifts. I would definitely reccommend this tour if visiting Aizuwakamatsu. The area is beautiful and rich with history.
