Great customized tour with my older dad - Wonderful customized tour with Take. He helped accommodate my older age dad and ensured the sites we needed to see. It was rainy and so we adjusted as necessary. We were very pleased.

Tokyo day trip - It was great walking tour exploring history and heritage of Tokyo. Our guide Makoto San was very helpful taking care of our group and guiding us through busy routes and making kids comfortable. Meiji shrine and asakusa were great and it was mixed with vibrant takeshita street. Makoto San took great photos of us too :)

Perfect introduction to Tokyo - This experience was worth every penny. Meg was kind, knowledgeable, and accommodating. Her knowledge of Tokyo and Japanese history made this tour a must do. She helped us navigate the public transportation system on our first day in Tokyo. She taught us basic Japanese phrases and made us enjoy our time in Tokyo - both the tourist and off the beaten path spots. We can’t say enough thanks! Arigato gozaimasu!

Worst tour guide ever - Our experience with this tour guide was disappointing. He didn’t provide much background or history about the places we visited—mostly just pointed things out with short comments like “crab” or “wasabi.” We also didn’t get to see as many sights as expected because we kept stopping to eat or look around without much structure or guidance. The most concerning part was when he boarded a train with my two 18-year-old daughters before realizing that my husband and I were still held up at the gate. We couldn’t see where they went and didn’t know if they were on the train or went down the hall to another platform. My daughter called us in a panic, telling us to get on the train. We boarded with seconds to pair and eventually reunited 30 minutes later when we all got off. It was a stressful and poorly handled situation that made us feel unsafe and frustrated.

Terrible - The tour guide was terrible. He barely spoke English, he showed as what looked like typical tourist traps as main attractions, he didn’t know anything about Japan History and when we asked about it he replied something else. It was our first day in Tokyo and unfortunately our first impression was truly disappointing since we did not have someone to show as the city properly. Our guide was Tetsu.
