Great 1 Day Tour - We had a great time with Hinako! She helped us find good shopping spots and recommended great places to eat. We saw a lot in 1 day and it really helped us find our way in Tokyo. The tour had a good itinerary. I enjoyed the mix of sights and visiting small streets with local shopping.

Tour of Asakusa area - Tetsu was responsive and prompt when we first met him. He was so friendly and easy to talk to. He had wonderful suggestions as well as being very flexible in what we wanted to do. We very much appreciated that he is a great listener and communicator. And of course he was amazingly informative. We had an awesome day with Tetsu and highly suggest his tour services. Thank you Tetsu!!

A great day in Asakusa - Mike was a wonderful guide and it was a pleasure to spend my first full day in Tokyo with him. We are explored the local area in depth, had a few laughs and I really learnt about the history of the area as well as the modern life here. I would happily recommend to other tourists to the area. It’s a great way to familiarise yourself with this part of Tokyo and Mike was great. Thank you.

Ueno Park to Skytree with Asakusa in Between - Yuka (Suzuki) was our guide for this tour, and she did a fine job. She was knowledgeable about the areas we visited and her English skills were also pretty good! We used the local bus a couple of times to get around, and she escorted us to the Skytee which we appreciated. We saw some great sites, but I would suggest starting at Ueno Park, next to Senso ji, and ending up at Skytree. I think that's a more efficient route, and would reduce the amount of walking and/or time spent on the bus.

Tetsu - (otomo) A+ guide - This was my first trip and day in Japan. Tetsu is an enthusiastic guide who oriented my family to the neighborhood, shops, and Japanese culture, and was very knowledgeable about the temple and shrine. Tetsu advised that there was a huge annual parade a 20 minute subway ride away outside Asakusa, and asked if we were interested. We said yes. It was a huge religious festival with music and dancing. Tetsu is very caring - the tour was booked for 4 hours but he stayed with us longer to accompany us back to the tour starting point near our hotel which required three subway transfers. We are glad he did! And he gave us his email address and invited us to ask questions - even about our next destination - Koyoto.
