Great tour & tour guide

Joyce_W, Aug 2023

We had a great day with our guide Sumiko & Toshi our driver. We got to see all the sights we wanted to visit in Kamakura & had a wonderful traditional lunch. We were not rushed, even though it was a holiday with large crowds. We learned so much from Sumiko about Japanese history & the sites we visited. They went above board by picking us up with our luggage, dropping the luggage off at our hotel in Yokohama & than continued on with the tour to Kamakura & back to Yokohama to finish the tour. I highly recommend this company !

Thank you for your wonderful review even though you are busy with your cruise tour. I hope this was a good start for you. Your cup noodle making is a hilarious idea! Sumiko and Toshi

Wonderful tour with great guide and driver. Highly recommend.

We had a wonderful tour with Matsashi and Tak. The Japanese garden was beautiful, making our own udon was fun and all the other stops were great as well. Tak did a great job driving us around and Matsashi was an awesome guide. He speaks English very well and was easy to understand. He shared history and other relevant information with us and was very flexible with the tour. Truly a good experience.

Memorable day trip for entire family

Susan_S, Jul 2023

Our tour guide and tour were absolutely amazing and exceeded our expectations. She worked with us prior to our tour to coordinate the best spots to visit which helped us maximize our day. She was extremely knowledgeable, professional and so interesting. We would highly recommend this excursion.

disappointing trip

Nic_P, Jul 2023

Looked like an interesting trip but guide lacking a lot of knowledge. Felt as if he was not familiar with the area or information on the things we visited. He was filling time as well, when clearly we were not interested or wanted to move on. Would not recommend as a tour guide going forward.

Response from Host, Jul 2023

Thank you for sharing your feedback on your recent tour in Yokohama. We appreciate your candidness and apologize for any dissatisfaction you experienced during the trip. We take every comment seriously as it helps us improve and ensure a more fulfilling experience for our valued customers. We want to clarify that the guide you had is indeed knowledgeable about the area where he lives. However, we understand that the tour did not meet your expectations, and we want to sincerely apologize for any inconvenience caused, by the limited time for preparation of our tour guide. He also had to adjust the itinerary due to restrictions on the reservation time of the facility. Additionally, the unforeseen changes in the lunch venue contributed to time constraints, leading to a rushed feeling during the tour. We deeply regret any lack of explanation or moments where you felt that your interests were not fully met. Rest assured, we will address these concerns with our guide to ensure that future tours are better managed and more informative. Your valuable feedback is a big help in improving our services, and we hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back for a more memorable experience in the future. Best regards,

Worth the price to get a professional guide and driver!

Despite stormy weather we visited the Odawara Castle, the great Buddha, the shrines of Kamakura and we enjoyed a delicious lunch in Enoshima. The trip was well worth the cost. Our guide, Elina, spoke great English and was very enthusiastic, talkative and knowledgeable about the culture. Thank goodness we hired a driver as well! With the wind and rain, I felt much safer having a professional take us everywhere in a private van. We greatly enjoyed the day and covered a lot of ground

Response from Host, Jun 2023

Thank you so much for your kind comment Catherine! I have to admit that this tour was a very special one for me as well. Fighting "the winds and tides" in Odawara Castle and Kamakura City with two stout-hearted knights like you and Max really felt like following in the footsteps of samurai warlords, physically and also mentally ^^. I hope you and your family (including your valiant boss ;) will come back soon for new exciting adventures!!! In the meantime, I will update my anime culture with the personalized list I got from Max! Congratulations on your graduation Max! Arigatôoô to both of you !!

Thank you for am amazing tour of Kamakura!

Jessica_H, Sept 2022

My team and I went on a great tour, led by Taiji. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly and professional. Our day was filled with exploring temples and shrines in Kamakura, with a nice surprise making our original Cup Noodles at the Cup Noodles museum. We capped off the day with breathtaking views at the pier and dinner in Chinatown. Thank you for a memorable experience. Look forward to seeing you again for a tour of Tokyo next! :) Warm regards, Jess

Response from Host, Oct 2022

Thank you very much for choosing our service. It was a great pleasure taking your team to one of our historical cities where the Shogunate system started about 800 years ago visit Hokokuji, Kotokuin, Hasedera temples, and Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine. We were lucky to be able to all sit at the counter and watch the chef's performance at the sushi restaurant. Have you already tasted your own cup noodle? I still haven't eaten mine, thinking to enjoy this weekend. I'd be more than happy to guide you on your next visit and explore new things together. Kind regards, Taiji
