A personal tour of Asakusa - Very nice experience with Tour guide Nana through Asakusa! She took ample time to answer all our questions and took us to the authentic charm of the Asakusa neighborhood. There were only three of us, which felt very personal. The tour was perfect in length. Nana spoke perfect English and gave us insights into traditional Japanese culture. Recommended!

Wonderful family friendly tour - Nana was our tour guide and she was wonderful! So patient with our two children- ages 8 & 5, she answered all their questions and explained in ways they understood. She was very informative and often stopped to take group pictures.

Culturally enriching - Nana was amazing. She was very patient with our children. And she had lots of information about each shrine. She helped us learn how to pray and show respect. Nana was the best.

Hyggelig - Great tour with our guide Mari. Mari took us to different places had a lot of knowledge and soon became a “member” of our group. Thank you Mari. Kunnskap om historie og annet i Tokyo, Mari passet godt inn i vår gruppe med varierende alder på seks, så praten gikk lett. Veldig hyggelig 😀

Guiding in Asakusa - Samira was an excellent guide for us. Since my wife and I were the only tourist in the group we also hadthe opportunity to influnce the speed and to ask a lot of questions which Samira salways were able to give an asnswere to. This is our first visit toJapan and we were lucky to get Samira telling us all the secrets about Asakusa and the Japanese religions
