Get a Lic guide tour - First time in Japan and only had a day to spend in Tokyo before our cruise. Decided the best way to see the city was thru a private lic tour guide instead of wasting valuable time navigating the city ourselves. Best decision we ever made. Andy our tour guide was excellent. Andy was fluent in English and Japanese. He contacted us days before the tour with ideas on what we can see and then cater the tour to our preferences. On the day of the tour, he met us at our hotel and was there with us for a good solid 8 hours. He exposed us to the Tokyo transit system ( we would have been lost without him), saw many sites like Imperial palace , Tokyo Tower, Temples etc. Too many sites to mention. Andy provided us great background information on the history and customs of Japan and on the sites we visited. Had a great Japanese style lunch and got some shopping in. Overall we condensed a lot into 8 hours of touring with no wasted time getting lost if we had tour ourselves. Thank you to Andy for being such a great guide.

Tokyo Tour - We had a fantastic tour of Tokyo, and many thanks to our tour guide Seizo. He emailed me and we coordinated our itinerary with him well in advance, and we followed his recommendations, as well as added a few of our own ideas to come up with the perfect tour. His knowledge of Tokyo, as well as the mass transit system was commendable. He spoke great English and kept my wife and I entertained with numerous stories coupled with important historical facts. I would highly recommend this tour, especially with Seizo as your guide.

Couldn’t ask for a better tour! - Our intelligent well spoken guide was waiting for us in the lobby 15 minutes ahead of time. She navigated 6 of us using at least 20 different trains to bring us to several highlights of Tokyo. She even brought us to a fabulous sushi restaurant in the old fish market tour.

Tokyo in a day - Ted was extremely well organized and well prepared. He compiled maps- a guide book and interesting history into a packet for us to keep. Showed us key highlights of the city while showing us how to use train and the metro. We quite enjoyed a very memorable day. Highly recommend Ted.

Tokyo stress free by guided experience - Our guide, Hiro Chikata was outstanding. As arranged he met us @ our Yokomana Hotel Guided to Tokyo thru the maze of trains & subways. The highlight of our trip was the "Sushi Bar" experience. 3 of us enjoyed very fresh sushi prepared on the counter by a master chef. All arranged by our guide Hiro. Then at end of our day we were guided back to the doorstep of our hotel. Very stressless way to experience our day

Amazing tour guide of Tokyo - Kei was my tour guide today. He was very personable and knowledgeable about the history of Tokyo and Japan. He is a world traveler who speaks very good English. We efficiently toured all over the city center and we're able to explore many of the most impressive landmarks and attractions. Going as a solo traveler it was a great way to discover Tokyo. He also gave me restaurant recommendations and travel help for my future adventures in Tokyo. I made a friend today! Would highly recommend.
