I strongly recommend Rainbow Tours and Katsumi Kamikawa. I enjoyed very much, a half day tour to the temple (a must) and if time allows, I recommend visiting also the old, treditional Japanese house. Katsumi is a great tour guide, speeks excelent English and provides a lot of infomation on the Japanese culture and history.

I am quite the planner, so I started looking at a tour to do during a long layover months in advance...so glad I did. Our guide, Katsumi, was personable, spoke perfect English, and so knowledgeable that we felt like we really experienced the Japanese culture in just 7 hours. Getting out of the airport and back in was a breeze...so... More

I reccommend doing a tour with Rainbow Tours with Katsumi Kamikawa as your tour guide if you have some time to spare while stopping off at Narita airport in Japan. Katsumi is a great tour guide and also a great story teller who knows a lot about the area and can discuss many topics concerning Japan. He will give you... More

Rainbow tour Net - Would not use them again. See tips instead. - Tour guide was not great. - Company seems a bit hit and miss. Pros - booking via email was easy - pickup was easy - Katsura speaks excellent English, well organized - on meeting him it seemed likely we made a good choice...but... Cons - Sadly after... More

I was traveling solo and had an 8 hr. layover in Narita. Having no interest in spending it at an airport, I booked this tour at the last minute. Katsumi met me right on schedule in his very clean van and we took off for the temple. I am not really interested in temples, pagodas, etc but this one proved... More

I've been to Japan and transited Narita many times since the late 1970's. I was facing a 24-hour layover in Narita before heading for NYC. Booked the Narita Hilton (quite good) - and through a link on Hotels.com found Narita Rainbow Tours - what a find. I wrote Kamikawa Katsumi of my timetable and interests (exploring/photography/markets/countryside). Katsumi responded quickly. After... More

A friend and I recently had an 8 hour layover at Narita between long flights. On a whim, we contacted Katsumi on Saturday afternoon before our Sunday morning arrival. Within 2 hours, our tour was confirmed. When we landed, I received an email from Katsumi saying that he was watching our flight info, and knew that we had arrived early,... More

Katsumi is great... very personable, well informed. I enjoyed taking his tour and recommend using his service if you want a hassle free tour of Narita

We had a one night stopover in marital on our way from Sydney to Vancouver and contacted Katsumi to profuse us with a short tour of the sights around Narita. Wow what a great experience we had. Katsumi is so knowledgable and friendly. We saw enough to say we will be back and bring friends seeking Katsumi's help again in... More
