Reviews from guests about our tours and locals
"Supergreat experience with Gerald! Showed us great foods and places. We deeply enjoyed the insides of Tokyo and its residents. Tanoshii!! thank you very much for this time we had together! You are very welcome to visit us in Switzerland, Gerald!"
"We had a wonderful time in Tokyo with Gerald. He was an exceptional host, a natural conversationalist, and a very knowledgeable guide. Gerald was able to develop plans on the fly as our son expressed interest in seeing certain sights, he was knowledgeable about the most viewed areas of the city while also knowing about some cool less popular spots in the city. Thanks Gerald, we had the best time!"
"Marc met us at our hotel, guided us across town to Asakusa and the temple. En route, we stopped at several other places off the beaten path. It was a great 3 hours."
"We originally booked a kickstart tour with Gerald, but quickly realized we needed much more time to align with our goals for the day. Gerald was very accommodating, and we determined that combining two tours was the easiest way to make this happen within the platform. Please see my adjacent review of our day with Gerald. He is the best!"
"Gerald is an incredibly knowledgeable, thoughtful, and fun person to spend a day with! He was very flexible to craft a day that aligned with our interests and adapted as we went along. He is also capable of going at whatever pace you prefer. Our preferred pace was fast and Gerald happily charged ahead with us, and we covered a lot of ground and saw so many amazing sights. Along the way, Gerald shared endless insights into the local culture and history, which added so much depth and texture to our tour. The overall experience was amazing, and was a favorite part of our trip to Tokyo. It was like spending the day with a good friend, and we cannot recommend Gerald more highly. "
"My wife and I thoroughly enjoyed our first day in Japan with a walking tour with Marc. He is a wonderful guide- very knowledgeable of important historical sites in Tokyo that should not be missed. Marc really helped us get oriented to using the metro and trains in Tokyo and showed us how to understand the schedules. We had amazing sashimi at Tsukiji and went to an older section of the city by request to see artisan crafts. Marc is fun and easy to talk with and has an interesting background in design, fashion and cooking. We highly recommend Marc for his tours within Japan"
"My wife and I enjoyed a wonderful street food tour with Sena. We met her in Kichijoji- walked the streets together sampling favorite foods- visited specialty stores and found lots of treats to bring home. Sena is easy to talk with, has lots of suggestions for places to see and really enjoys helping people make the most of their time in Japan. A wonderful guide and new friend. Highly recommend her tours. "
"Seden was very flexible as I navigated different parts of Tokyo. She was also very resourceful by providing great information for my visit."
"We asked Gerald to explore a few of the less “touristy” areas of Tokyo. He took us to beautiful local spots and gave us a great insight into living in Tokyo. We highly recommend Gerald - friendly knowledgeable and a lovely guide! "
"We had a great time on our tour with Ai. She took us through Shibuya, Harijuku, and Shinjuku and we took our time seeing shrines as well as the major attractions. It was a great time enjoying the areas and learning about Japanese culture. I highly recommend taking a tour with Ai. "
