“We had a wonderful visit to the Tokyo Fish Market with our guide, Jim. He created a relaxed and easy-going atmosphere and shared many interesting insights into Japanese culture—both from a local perspective and from his experience as a foreigner living in Japan. Jim introduced us to a variety of foods we probably wouldn’t have tried on our own, and we truly appreciated his guidance and clear explanations. Overall, it was a fun and enjoyable tour in a small group of eight people, and we would gladly recommend it to others!”

A guided Tokyo museum visit where you learn samurai and ninja history, throw shuriken, and dress up for memorable photos.
“We had such a fantastic time visiting the Samurai Museum with Ken (I think!) as our guide. The visit was super engaging and fun for the kids — they were captivated from start to finish — and we adults also learned a lot along the way. The format was just right: not too short, not too long, and really well balanced. Even though we were part of a big group, Ken managed it perfectly so that everyone felt included and comfortable. Highly recommended!”

A private, customizable Tokyo walking tour with a local guide, hotel pickup, and public-transport help so you can see more with less stress.
“Our guide, Balsan Victor, was awesome! He took us on the highlights tour in Tokyo. It was much easier with a guide because they share their knowledge and help you get around easily. He even brought us to the top of a building to enjoy views of a beautiful temple and the streets below. We had a wonderful day with him! We loved trying some treats in Asakusa and seeing its traditional temples and streets. We also explored the Imperial Palace Gardens and the Marunouchi area. It was pretty in the winter, can’t imagine what it looks like in the spring! Highly recommend.”

“Awesome tour! Loved the format. Miwa was the absolute best and so accommodating for mi first time in Japan, as well as my Husbands second time. We got to see so many highlights and she took the time to explain even about how to get around. Miwa curated the tour to our wants to see or what we looking for. HIGHLY recommend!!!”

“Mount Fuji day tour from Tokyo, an off hand Indian guy picked us up, his car was dinted and had a half empty bottle of coke in the rear door. As we got going he swapped the SIM in his phone over (while speeding, we thought we were in our own “Taken” movie). We soon found out the reason for the SIM swap was so he could argue with someone for 40 minutes at the first stop while we looked around. Second stop he did the same thing as well as texting while he was driving, sometimes way under the speed limit then over when he finished. Trouble at home…”
