Charming town, very friendly local guide - Joined at the last minute, the organizers were very welcoming. Moreover, the local guide's passion for Kawagoe's history was contagious, and she shared a lot of fascinating stories about the area. Bored? No plan? Go for it.

Kawagoe Tour - I had a great time in Kawagoe. The tour guides are friendly and knowledgeable about Kawagoe. We walked around the old town, visited some shrines and did sake tasting. I would highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to make new friends and/or visit Kawagoe with locals. Thank you again for the wonderful experience.

Explore With Locals - Tokyo International Friends is a great group led by Peter and his friends. The team is fun and really nice, and organizes cool events like the one in Kawagoe. The Kawagoe tour was professionally organized and loads of fun. I made some really good friends there that I still talk to. The best part was that a local walked us through the place and shared her favorite spots to eat and drink. If you're looking to tour with locals and make friends, and not just do a lame tour with a lame guide, then this is for you. Looking forward to the next adventure!
