We had a wonderful time - this is a beautiful area of the city. Kozi was a great guide! The temple was market were very interesting yet the gardens were so unexpected in this pocket of the city!
Guide was friendly, knowledgeable, had a great sense of humor and taught us so much about the history of the tsukiji market and the Buddhist temple and Shinto shrine in addition to the garden and tea house. Loved every minute of this tour, extremely valuable for the cost, would recommend and would be back to do it all over again next time!
Our tour guide was extremely friendly and helped us navigate Kyoto.
Very interesting tour with Fujii. He went out of his way to personalise the tour which was just for the 2 of us. He knew a lot about the Buddhist temples where we started and we enjoyed the food market and gardens.
Absolutely wonderful tour! Masumi is an excellent tour guide who shares history and current knowledge! Genuinely wonderful time! Thank you!
Very informative, walked around the market, and the gardens. I enjoyed this tour with my family a lot would definitely recommend to do in the morning time!
We enjoyed our leisurely experience walking with our friendly tour guide Miyuki. She was informative, pleasant and catered to our interests.
I really enjoyed being able to visit both Tsukiji and Hamarikyu Gardens. At Tsukiji, I had a great time sampling sushi, wagyu beef, and fresh fruit—it was a delicious experience that left me completely full! To walk off the meal, we took a pleasant stroll to Hamarikyu. The walk was just the right length, and it felt refreshing. Suddenly, a spacious garden appeared in the middle of the city, and I was struck by how uniquely “Tokyo” that contrast felt. It was a memorable and fulfilling experience.
Our guide Erica was friendly and kind. Although we were expecting more explanation and information, we were satisfied with having someone local who knows the way around. Erica was also nice enough to take us to the train station for our next stop.
Shin is an excellent guide!! We had a private tour that he adapted to what we wanted and we felt super comfortable with him at all times. I 100% recommend getting to know and touring Tsukiji with him and with this tour. As he said “a very nice experience with friendship” so we are leaving Japan with a new friend!!
They first asked us what we wanted, and then we were able to enjoy the gourmet food of Tsukiji. We enjoyed the Wildlife Preserve and Takhini Hot Spring tour and also we were very happy to see Aurora on our last night. Hamarikyu was a big and wonderful area. Thank you very much.
We had a great visit with Miho who is very patient and attentive. She gave us a lot of advice. It's very nice to make a visit with 4.
