Yuki is a good guide for us, told us about history and we saw all the area
Great tour! Toshi was very informative and kind; I had a wonderful experience!
Such an amazing experience! Couldn't have known the rich history of the shine without this great guided tour; was very informative. Yoshi was so sweet and answered so many questions!
Nice tour, Yoshiko was so nice and answered all our questions
Wonderful experience and having the private tour allowed us to ask as many questions as we liked. Would definitely recommend for the price! Yoshi was very kind and extremely informative!
Such a fantastic tour with Toshi! We had another tour with her yesterday, so when we found out she would be our tour guide today, we were so excited! Such a beautiful shrine and memorable experience. Thank you Toshi!
Himiko was incredibly kind and welcoming, making me feel warmth and friendliness even while I was traveling in a foreign country. As it was my first time visiting Asakusa, I was a little nervous at first. However, chatting with Himiko quickly put me at ease. Her enthusiasm and positive energy made me feel as if I were spending time with a friend. This was truly an unforgettable experience for me, and I sincerely hope I'll have the opportunity to visit and experience it again in the future. Thank you for the wonderful memories! Himiko非常親切,讓我在異國中也能感受到友善跟溫暖,第一次來到淺草有點緊張,但在跟Himiko聊天過程中感受到熱情和活力,就想朋友一樣,對我來說是份難忘的回憶,希望日後還有機會再次前往體驗!

It was a great tour!!! Amazing guide
Great value, guide was very informative, friendly, and historical knowledgeable. A wonderful and educational experience!
Nana is a fantastic tour guide. I highly recommend!
It was a very lovely and simple tour but I learned a lot from our tour guides (and main tour guide, Nana). They were very friendly and the tour overall was knowledgeable. It was worth taking part in the tour.
Amazing experience. The tour guide, Nana, was friendly, fun, and taught us so much. Incredible!
Great introduction into the Shinto Shrines. Meiji was beautiful and Yoshi was an excellent guide. Very willing to answer questions
It was a wonderful experience, very rich in insights into Japanese spirituality, culture, and life in Tokyo in general. Nana is a very kind and warm person who makes everyone feel at ease. I highly recommend this experience to everyone.
An excellent tour where I learned a lot.
What an amazing time! I love how in depth our guide was. It’s so nice to see people with deep knowledge who can give accurate information and instruction for foreigners to be respectful in such sacred areas. I came during a hard time and I felt very lifted afterwards
The photograph is super cool, we loved it, highly recommended.
The best photographer, we loved the photos she took of us, we highly recommend her.
Thank you for making such a good memory! I have so happy memories!
It was fun, and I'm really glad I had that rare experience with Santorum.
