An amazing, private tour with Miya in Japan to the knife district. - My travel agent arrange for my husband and I to take a private tour to the knife district with Miya. She was absolutely the best! She met us at our hotel and we traveled there using the subway. The subway system in Tokyo is amazing. We never could have experienced it in a large group tour. Miya had emailed us prior to our trip to learn exactly what we wanted to see and the types of Japanese food that we would like to try. She then arranged for us to go to two knife shops and both were excellent. They carried different products and the sales clerks were extremely knowledgeable. I was even able to get a name engraved on the one for a friend and have them shipped. I had also wanted to see shops that sold the miniature plastic foods. In the end, I didn’t buy any, but I did get some pictures. Miya selected the perfect restaurant for our lunch. We dined on some traditional Japanese dishes that were quickly prepared for us. The chef was very entertaining. Miya speaks excellent English and readily translated when I had questions for some of the sales people. She knew where to go for the duty refund. Because it was just for my husband and I, we were able to learn so much more about our Japan. We had so many questions and Miya answered them. It was so much more than my husband and I thought it would be. We definitely recommend Miya to anyone who is traveling to Tokyo.

Wonderful visit to Tsukiji and Sensō-Ji - Our guide met us at our hotel and guided us through the metro to our destinations. We visited Tsukiji Fish Market and Sensō-Ji in Asakusa. Our tour guide Haruyo is very knowledgeable about the places, very open and candid, speaks great English and is delightful to spend time with! She answered all of our questions, suggested great options and we had so much fun.

Fish market and shopping in Tokyo - Hiroko was a fantastic guide. She checked in with us before our tour started. She wanted to know what we wanted to do and catered our day to our needs and wants. She helped us understand the Japanese culture. She helped us learn a little Japanese. She took us to great restaurants, and we experienced a wide variety of foods. We also went shopping. She taught us to navigate the train stations too. We can’t say enough good things about her.
