- TwiggyJu0 contributionsGuided walked tour with Suita NaomiWe just did a 4 hour walking tour with Suita Naomi. I must say it was well worth it. First of all we picked up our suca cards and then navigated the train system to the Sensoji temple Naomi explained all the history the oldest temple in Toyko. Lots of great pictures. Then onwards to Sumo and Japanese swords. My husband loves all that. So we went to the Samurai sword museum. Really is worth a visit if you like swords. We also visited the Japanese garden Kyu yasuda where we witness a wedding. All in all I loved it and Naomi gave us a lot of information to absorb. I would definitely do it again..Written 4 October 2024
- Y9841HPpeterg0 contributionsTokyo ExperienceSammy was amazing! He gave us a true insight into the history of a number of temples and shrines we visited. He showed us the beauty and tranquillity of the Hama-rikyu Gardens where we enjoyed a matcha tea. We had lunch with a view and visited the hustle and bustle of Shibuya. Sammy provided us with printed information about the sights we visited. Sammy also took the time to reach out to us before we arrived, to get a feel on what our interests were, so he could cater our tour for us. I must also say that Sammy took some amazing photos leaving us with memories of a beautiful introduction to Tokyo.Written 4 October 2024

- chrislI8632KE0 contributionsAbsolutely great time.We had a great time on our full day tour. Chizuko was a great host and made a wonderful plan to hit everything we wanted to see. Sadly on the day we arrived it was raining and made doing everything a challenge so on the fly she was able to help us find great indoor alternatives. On top of that we even went to a bunch of the outdoor spot when the rain was lighter. All in all a great experience.Written 3 October 2024

Thank you very much for your kind message! I am delighted to hear from you. I thoroughly enjoyed hosting all of you, of course. It was my pleasure to showcase both the modern and historical aspects of Kobe. I found some different points of views which catch foreign tourists' interest about Japan. Once again, I really appreciate your heartfelt words.
