Yuta was an enthusiastic, energetic young guide. He told us some interesting information as well as great stories. Made sure we all navigated underground trains back to our accommodation. Great day seeing Tokyo city and sights within.
Yuti was great. Enjoyed the Sky Tower and the Temples we went to. The food was good. Didn't care for the match tea or Gelato.
The Tokyo bus tour was very much liked by me and my husband. It Incorporated a full day of interesting sites and fun things to do. Aya was our tour guide; she was very knowledgeable giving us just the right amount of history and knowledge for us to enjoy the experience. There was also plenty of free time for us to enjoy areas on our own.
Mizuho was a fantastic guide. She was patient and very accomodating with the group. Her english was excellent and she was very clear to understand. Even though one couple on the tour was constantly late at multiple rendezvous points, she kept her cool and politely reminded everyone to be on time. I love her spirit and enthusiasm. She shared a lot of Japanese history and culture. This was the perfect way to get an overview of Tokyo in a very short amount of time. I would totally recommend Mizuho to anyone going on any of her tours.

Yuta, our guide, was outstanding. One of the best we've had. He was fluent in both Japanese and English, had an engaging personality and shared tons of fascinating information at a great pace. The stops we all great, the pace was great and I highly recommend this tour. Yuta also was kind enough to find out what other places were of interest to various people on the tour and made suggestions of things to see in other cities. Not to mention practical advice on what apps to download, etc.

Japan Panoramic Tours was the absolute highlight of my trip! It's the ultimate introduction to Tokyo, striking a brilliant balance between historical landmarks and futuristic sights.
A massive shoutout to our guide, Lovely—she completely lived up to her name. Witty, incredibly informative, and endlessly entertaining, she kept the whole group laughing while making sure we learned so much.
The Tokyo Skytree views were jaw-dropping, and the authentic traditional lunch was delicious and such a nice touch. If you want a fun, well-rounded, and stress-free way to see the city, book this tour. Thanks for an unforgettable day!

I enjoyed the tour, the girls were nice and professional.
I only didn't like the meeting point, was too far from the station. my hotel was near the central station. I had to run for 20 min under the rain just to reach this point. I believe it should be easier if it is a bit closer to any train station. I had the day after another tour and the meeting point were near the station.
also, I believe they should change the boat trip to something else. it's a bit boring, or maybe pick a different direction for the boat there was nothing special about the view on both side of the river only old building and houses during the trip ( except the Asahi building ) and until we reached the end where the long bridge. however in general was a day around Tokyo :)

Despite completing this tour during the typhoon this was a very enjoyable experience! The tour took you to many different sites around Tokyo while having a tour guide explaining the significance and history of each location.
Despite the boat tour at the end being cancelled due to the weather, an alternative arrangement was made at the Edo Museum by the company and tour guide.
Our tour guide Aki was amazing! She provided great insight on each location, as well as being extremely knowledge and friendly. She provided recommendations of food places to try and alternative Japanese knife shops, as well as making conversation with everyone on our bus.
This was my favourite tour I have been on in Japan! Would definitely recommend, no matter the weather!

Prior to the tour, communications with the company were easy and questions were answered rapidly. The tour stops were exactly as delineated in the description of the tour.
Yuti was a great tour guide. He provided highlights for each stop, told us what to expect, and laid out clear meeting points and times. Otsukare, Yuti!

This tour was very comprehensive but probably 1-2 hours too long.
Lisa, our tour guide, was excellent.
Would recommend if they shortened the duration. Perhaps shorter intervals at the sky tower and bay cruise.

We took the day bus tour of Tokyo. Lisa our guide was fantastic!! Very sweet & knowledgeable. The only negative comment is that the boat ride at the end seemed to be a waste of time. It is a long bus ride & then a good 20 minute walk to the pier for a 10 minute boat ride.
