Garden of earthly delights - The garden at Sakien was very beautiful. It was like stepping back in time. Kenji, our guide, explained the history behind it very well. He was very personable.

Terrific guide in Yokohama - Our guide - Hiroshi Kawano - took us on a very interesting tour of the Bay Area of Yokohama. He was a delight to speak with, and very knowledgeable. I highly recommend him to others visiting Yokohama.

Fun way to explore Yokohama! - I’ve been to Yokohama many times, but this was my first guided tour. Yuko was a delightful host and it felt like exploring the city with a friend. She showed me areas I had never been to before. What a great experience.

The real life Izezaki Ijincho - My guide Hiroshi was excellent! He took me through parts of Yokohama that only locals would know about, like a free foot bath at this one restaurant in Yamashita Park and a row of bars in Noge that I eventually went back to later that evening to enjoy. He also introduced me to some local delicacies, like hoppy and a squid dish that I felt like made me want to keep drinking! Great times. One other thing, if you’re a fan RGG studio games Like a Dragon or Lost Judgment, you’re going to get a kick out of exploring this area. You’ll recognize sections of Yamashita Park where you probably ran around looking for those beetles to upgrade your gear or the bridge or the row of bars near where Ichiban first lives when he first gets to Yokohama. Visit during the day and definitely come back at night

A fun time! - Hiroko was a wonderful guide. She worked with me beforehand to decide what to see and do, based on my interests and mobility issues. The Sankeien Gardens were lovely, and the CupNoodles Museum was fun! I wanted to look at Japanese knives, and she made sure in advance that a big department store had what I wanted to see. Thank you, Hiroko, for a great experience!

Horrible Experience - I would like to leave zero stars if I could. After getting an email confirming my booking and the tour guide’s name - Michael - no one showed up and when I called they told me the did not have a guide for me. I booked IN ADVANCE and they took my money and confirmed. They have not refunded my money and I am still trying to reach a manager but no one will call me. They completely ruined the day for my daughter
