Mizo was very informative and knowledgeable and great to talk with. She was easy to meet up with and provided a self guided tour information after
Mr. Yuuki A. is an excellent guide. He offered extensive historical knowledge about the area. He also gave us advice on places to eat favored by locals that tourists don’t often frequent. Thank you for the amazing experience!
Ver y informative on Tokyo histories first thought this would not be so interesting but we learned a great amount about Tokyo and Japan history
Shuzuki was a great guide and informative. Unfortunately the palace was not open at the time but still interesting to hear about its history
Mia was amazing! Very knowledgeable, informative and friendly! Met us at Tokyo station, walked us through up to the palace and entrance.
You don't see much of the palace and none of the inside. The walk is from the station to the outskirts of the palace grounds with some monuments and history thrown in. OK for $10 but probably not what most people expect from the title.
Our 1-hour Imperial Palace walking tour was wonderful, and our guide Mia made the experience truly special. She was friendly, knowledgeable, and spoke excellent English, making everything easy to understand and enjoyable for our whole group.
Really lovely guide but the tour was pretty basic, you can’t really see the place you just tour the outside
Wonderful introduction to Tokyo Station and Imperial Palace area. Our guide was enthusiastic and informative.
Very informative, NoNo was our guide and she was great, her English was perfect and she was very knowledgeable
This was a great tour! Even though we were not able to enter through the gate due to it being closed on Fridays, Yuuka made it a fantastic experience. She was very knowledgeable, and excited to share the history. We learned so much and had a great time doing it!
Yuuka was great! We walked all around and learned a lot about the palace and the the station. Enjoyed the tour.
Kizuki was AMAZING!!!!! Very well knowledged and helpful! Would do this again and had a great time too.
This is a very short one hour tour that very insightful with Kieko guide. Friendly and informative. if you don’t have a lot of time, it’s perfect and you want to see the palace and learn about the history
He was intelligent, friendly, and knowledgeable.
Answer all of our questions and anticipated our needs.
Tomo was our guide. A good history lesson on the transition from one era to another. Also, a history lesson of the train station.
This tour is very informative and our guide was super knowledgeable and helpful and interesting to talk to.
