Recent review by Vincent G.:

Over the 5 tour days we had with Kaz we had a great time, lots of fun and an amazing experience throughout Tokyo, Nikko, Hakone/Mt Fuji and Kamakura. It was so great my family would love to repeat it. She always tried to find places to eat for my vegan daughter, so she could eat. She also tried to save us money with her recommendations for food and travel. Overall, could not be better and she felt like part of our family.

The tour was awesome! We went to Asakura temple & shrine, went to the Imperial Palace, Akihabara, and Nakano Broadway. She was very knowledgeable about the history of the various landmarks and sites. Plus she gave me information about other good places to go on my own. I highly recommend her as a guide! : )
