Perfect with kids
I loved that I could customize this excursion. Yuka contacted me months in advance to discuss locations. We were traveling with two children 4 and 10 and wanted to create a memorable experience for everyone. Her suggestions were perfect and the kids enjoyed it. We loved Yuka!!! It was a great day!!

Great Walking Tour with Milo
We had a great 3 hour walking tour of Kyoto on our first day in town with Milo. Not only did we get a thorough tour with an excellent overview of the city and culture - he also gave us great recommendations for the rest of our time here. Milo really adjusted to our family’s interests and energy level and made it feel like “our” tour instead of a formula. We would enjoy touring with him again!

Incredible tour of Kyoto with Yoshi
This was an absolutely incredible tour with a most knowledgeable, fun and engaging tour guide Yoshi. Prior to the tour Yoshi got in touch with me and we were able to customize the tour to our interests, Yoshi had wonderful recommendations for our free time including restaurants, shopping , sightseeing, a show and even photo recommendations. The tour was absolutely the best, i would book Yoshi for all of West Japan sightseeing in the future.. an added bonus - Yoshi is a great photographer!

Fun Tokyo City tour with kids
Fuma was the best tour guide ever! He was very knowledgeable about the history of Tokyo and the places we went. He was very accommodating to our shopping needs and was really good with our 3 kids and got some great photos! We went to Akihabara, Takeshita street and Shibuya crossing in 6hrs. The driver was excellent and we had a baby seat. We would definitely recommend this tour and can't thank Fuma enough for his help to see so many amazing things!

A great way to spend our...
A great way to spend our first night in Osaka! I went with my family (we're all adults), and we had a blast. Our guide Taka was extremely funny and good to be around. He showed us some tourist hubs in the area, but most of the tour focused on the smaller, hidden gems of the different areas and some of the nightlife. We got great recommendations and ideas for the rest of our trip. Would definitely recommend.

A top day with a top guide
My wife & I spent a fabulous day with Yuji visiting Miyajima & Hiroshima.. From his greeting to us on our arrival at Hiroshima station to saying good-bye at the same location 8 hours later, he gave us wonderful perspectives of both locations as well as sharing his knowledge of the sights we saw.

Perfect intro to Japan!
We had a 4 hour private tour on our first morning in Tokyo, and it was the perfect introduction to Japan! We had been contacted by our guide Maddie before the tour, and we told her a few of the places we wanted to visit. She helped us navigate the train station and walked us through all the areas we wanted to see, as well as many other stops along the way that we wouldn’t have seen without her. Maddie was very knowledgeable and friendly, and spoke very clear English. She knew exactly which routes to take, and we would have taken at least twice as long if we tried to go to all those areas without her. She was a great guide and we wished we could have taken her along for the rest of our trip!

Absolutely amazing tour...
Absolutely amazing tour with Karolina! She was so knowledgeable and took us around at a very good pace all afternoon without feeling too rushed. She clearly loves the city and knows a lot of history which we were so fascinated by! She gave us some local recommendations and just was so lovely to spend the afternoon with!

Great Tokyo Visit with Koba
Koba was an excellent guide for a very special day with family in Tokyo. He was friendly and knowledgeable and spoke good English. He was also able to relate to both teens and adults in our group and made really helpful suggestions and demonstrated good adaptability when some in our group were beginning to tire. We would highly recommend him to anyone planning a Tokyo visit!

Authentic Tokyo Experience with an Outstanding Guide
We had an absolutely wonderful experience on our private Tokyo walking tour with Mieko-san. From the beginning, communication was excellent, and throughout the day she was kind, professional, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring.
What we appreciated most was that she gave us exactly the type of experience we were looking for — authentic places and local experiences we would never have discovered or felt comfortable navigating on our own as tourists. The lunch recommendation was outstanding and became one of the highlights of our trip.
Mieko-san made us feel very welcome, answered all of our questions, and helped us experience Tokyo in a much more personal and meaningful way. She also took beautiful photos of us during the tour, which was such a thoughtful touch.
We highly recommend this tour and especially Mieko-san to anyone visiting Tokyo and looking for a more authentic, high-quality experience.

Great Walking Tour of Tokyo
Our guide, Keiji led us on the Tokyo Private Day Trip walking tour to many of the places we were told to see while in Tokyo including the Meiji Shrine and the Tokyo Tower. Keiji was very kind and shared a wealth of historic and background information at the different sites that we would not have known going on our own, That enhanced our understanding and enjoyment. We recommend this tour to those who would like to see these sites. Be forewarned that in addition to walking for hours, most locations involve going up and down a lot of stairs to get into and out of the sites, as well as the subway trains.

Good driver
We were picked up on time by Alam, our driver, in an extremely luxurious vehicle with more than enough space for all our luggage. He had to drive us from Tokyo to Mt Fuji, which he did well - we commented on his safe and relaxing driving. This was not a tour, so he didn’t say much, but this was expected as it was simply for transportation. He did take us to the sites we needed to see and was always waiting for us when we had finished looking around in our own time. All in all, we were more than satisfied.
