Best Tour Ever

Kahoko is very, very good at her job. I don't think I have ever had a better tour guide. Her thoughtfulness and genuine love for Japan shined through every time she shared details about our destinations. It takes a special person to do this type of job, and Kahoko does it with her whole heart.

Kahoko K.

Thank you very much for another kindest review. It was really encouraging and gave me another motivation for the future tour. You are making such a terrific couple full of smiles and love. I had such a memorable lovely time with you. I hope you come back again soon. Until then, please stay fit and healthy!

Una tranquilla passeggiata a Tokyo

Kahoko, e’ stata una guida attenta e rispettosa dei nostri ritmi un po’ rallentati dal caldo. Si è da subito mostrata disponibile a cambiare itinerario a seconda dei nostri desideri. Consiglio.

Tokyo tour-Day 1 and 2

Kahoko was an excellent guide. We only had a few days in Tokyo and she was able to fit all that we wanted to do and see. She was friendly, knew the city very well and spoke good English. She even brought water for us and made sure we were well hydrated. She went above and beyond. We were very happy with our experience.

Kahoko K.

Thank you very much for the sweet review! It is very encouraging and meaningful for me. I had such wonderful time with two of you . Even though it was extremely hot, you were always pleasant and cooperative. It was a great pleasure for me to have been able to support you even a little. Probably, you enjoyed your rest of journey. I hope you come back to Japan some day soon. There are more places to visit here. Until then, please stay fit and healthy. Take care!
