Asakusa Walking Tour - Ava was a terrific guide, highly recommended. Really enjoyed the matcha experience and the dinner as well, things we never would have discovered on our own.

Unique and Pleasant Tour with Kentake and Lisa - We loved our first tour of Asakusa with Kentake and Lisa. Both tour guides made the experience very special for us. We particularly enjoyed sharing a griddle eating Okonomiyaki and learning about life in Japan. We also loved hearing the history of the Seno-ji temple. It was very crowded and a little rainy when we went, but we still felt like Kentake and Lisa went above and beyond to make our experience special. The matcha experience was interesting and a cool, private stop from the busy street below. Highly recommended and great value.

Asakusa Cultural Walk - You get to learn about Kaminarimon and Sensoji Temple and how to pray. The Matcha making was a lot of fun, since the instructor/owner was entertaining. You also get to make/eat Okonomiyaki or Monja-yaki for lunch. The tour guide Megumi was informative and friendly.
