We were a group of 8 (including 3 kids), so not the easiest crew—but Hiro was amazing! He met us at our Airbnb and guided us through Tokyo, taking us to Senso-ji Temple (Asakusa), Meiji Jingu Shrine, Shibuya Crossing, and a few other stops along the way, all while navigating busy subways and crowded streets with ease. He always made sure everyone stayed together. Hiro...

Thank you so much for your kind review! It was a pleasure spending the day with your family. I’m glad you enjoyed visiting Senso-ji Temple, Meiji Jingu Shrine, and Shibuya Crossing, as well as some “secret” spots along the way. It was also wonderful to hear about your history with Japan. Arigatou gozaimasu, and I hope you make many more great memories here! Warm...
What a great time we had with Hiro on our trip to Tokyo. We had 10 students and 4 adults for the day tour of 6 hrs. He met us at our hotel and from there we went to the Meiji-Shrine, Fish market and the Sensoji temple. Hiro was so kind and helpful with lots of great information for each location. I highly recommend booking Hiro for your day tours.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review, Jolene and David! It was such a pleasure guiding you all around Tokyo. I’m so glad to hear that you enjoyed the day — visiting Meiji Shrine, the fish market, and Sensoji Temple with your group was a lot of fun for me as well. I truly hope your first visit to Japan was a memorable and enjoyable experience. Thank you again for...
Hiro was wonderful to tour with. His English is excellent and he moved at just the right pace for our family who was on day two and a bit jetlagged. He was knowledgeable about the sites and also helped us learn how to use the subway system, which was a tremendous help! He even took us to an authentic Ramen place where we would not feel like such tourists. He was easy to...

Dear Lynsey, It was truly a pleasure touring with your family! I am so glad to hear that the pace worked well for you-especially with a bit of jetlag-and that I could help make things like the subway system a little easier to navigate. I really enjoyed showing you around and helping you discover some of the more authentic sides of the city (including that ramen spot!). ...
Loved the tour. Me and my family with little kids. We went at our own pace, and our guide was very supportive, knowledgeable, great conversationalist, and knows good spots to see and visit. With this tour we were able to see the big sights and it flowed well.
