Tadao Ando, one of Japan’s most internationally celebrated architects, is known for transforming simple materials such as concrete, light, and water into extraordinary architectural experiences. But what makes his buildings so distinctive, and how can we learn to see them through an architect’s eyes? Join an architect guide on a journey through Osaka to discover the ideas behind Ando’s work. Together, we’ll explore his distinctive use of concrete, light, geometry and nature, and consider why his seemingly simple spaces can evoke such powerful responses. Rather than merely looking at buildings, we’ll ask what they are trying to do for us. Why does a particular space make us pause? How can simplicity bring a sense of calm to a busy city? And what might architecture teach us about the way we want to live? By the end of the tour, you may find that you see not only Tadao Ando’s buildings differently, but the ordinary spaces of everyday life as well.

Mount Fuji Full Day Sightseeing Tour from Tokyo

Yongjian_B, Oct 2026

Beautiful Mount Fuji, Great Tour Guide

It was great pleasure join this fantastic tour. Sandy ledus through multiple sites around Mount Fuji area, so that we experienced not only natural scenes but also people and culture. The mountain was mostly covered in cloud today, but Sandy helped imagine how this beautiful picture actually would be. We definitely will come back to climb the mountain

Quang_L, Oct 2026

Best tour Guide, Sam

Sam, the tour guide, was very knowledgeable about the whole process and even moved our time earlier to ignore peak traffic and better views of Mt. Fuji. He showed us amazing g scenery and captured some lifelong memories and photos. This tour wouldn't have been close to what we had if I tried to rent a car and do everything on our own.

Tokyo Customized Private Tour (Must See Places in 1 Day)

Steven_S, Oct 2026

A practical and super helpful introduction to Tokyo!

Mai was so helpful! We signed up for a pre-described 4-hour tour, but in point of fact, we hadn't done sufficient research on our own to be specific about what we wanted to do on this, our first morning in Japan. As we talked, it became clear that one of the things we were most concerned about was figuring out how to navigate the transportation system. Mai was graceful and tactful in helping us figure out how best to use our scarce time with her -- which turned out to be visiting 3 iconic sites, by walking a lot and jumping on various trains to transport us to 3 disparate locations. Along with way, she was also very helpful as a tutor -- how to use Suica card, how to manage transportation w/ use of Google maps, using google translate -- and what about that Imperial Palace!

1-Day Tokyo Bus Tour

Lynne_H, Oct 2026

Highlights of Tokyo

We had the option of 3 possible meeting places. This made it easy to connect. Our guide, Misaho, was well prepared and helped highlight historical events as we visited corresponding places. The food experiences were authentic Japanese style and choices were varied. We visited locations of religious significance and learned to honor the traditions of the ancestors. I would highly recommend the variety of opportunities offered, the knowledgeable and helpful (Mizoho took my friend and I to the correct train platform and helped get us on our train safely). Our driver, Wantanabe, skillfully weaved his way through traffic keeping the journey safe. Thank you for a wonderful day, personal service, and a varied experience.

If you plan to visit Tokyo put this on your to do list. Buy your tickets in advance to make sure you get a seat. This sumo dinner show was the absolute highlight of our short trip in Tokyo. The show was very entertaining and a short history in sumo was given to the audience. The wrestlers were very engaged with the audience and the emcee was just fantastic. It was just a very fun experience.

Tokyo Shinjuku Sumo Show & Experience with Photo

Christopher_M, Oct 2026

So much fun, a must-do in Tokyo!

The Shinjuku Sumo Club show was awesome from start to finish. The sumo wrestlers were super friendly and funny, and really likeable. Watching them up close was amazing. The host was great too. She explained the history of sumo in a way that was easy to understand, and explained informatively how hard life is for sumo wrestlers. They train hard every day and give up a lot to do what they do. It only increased my respect and admiration for them more. The host also kept the crowd lively the whole time, so there was never a boring moment. The staff were really welcoming and looked after the guests well. If you're in Tokyo, don't miss this. Highly recommend! 🙌

Incredibly entertaining and informative. We had a great time. The food was very tasty and the service was also attentive. We considered going to an actual sumo match, but this was far better because we learned about sumo training, the ritual of the competition, and watched a match.
