I can’t recommend Hal highly enough. She was an outstanding guide and provided very interesting insights that illustrate the deep affection she has for her home town. I’d give this tour 6 stars if I could.
Dear Gary, Thank you for your lovely review! It's a great honor to receive such a comment from an architect like you. Having a insightful conversation with you was a rich moment for me as well. Thank you so much for coming to the tour. Our architecture tour group offers other area's tour such as Ginza, Ueno and Tokyo open air architecture museum, so please consider joining them when you come to Tokyo again! I am hoping to see you again! Hal
I was interested in visiting the Nakagin Capsule Tower and this tour was the best way to view the interior of the building. That in itself is a very unique experience and is a fascinating insight to this inventive type of architecture. The tour lasted an hour and was incredibly informative. The guide was great and spoke perfect English, and was able to talk in depth about the architecture and history of Japan.
Dear Ian, Thank you so much for your kind review! It was great talking with you about the tower. It always make us happy to meet someone who can understand the value of this building and trying to know more about it. Your visit definitely made one step closer to the tower preservation and we appreciate all your cooperation. Hoping to see you again in future! Yuka
My family and I definitely loved learning more about the Nakagin Capsule tower. I chose to do this tour because I'm an architecture student and the capsule tower had been coming up a lot in a few of my classes, so I wanted to know what it was all about. My mom and my sister, however, were only learning about the building for the first time. Our tour guide, Mari, taught us all something new about the tower, and we even got to it from the inside! All in all, a great experience with a great tour guide, and I would recommend it to anyone!
Dear Ophelie Thank you very much for your comment. I am really glad to hear that three of you have enjoyed the tour. There are many attractive architecture in Tokyo to see！ J'espere que vous reviendrez. Sincerely yours. Mari
My partner and I enjoyed our private tour of the Capsule Tower interior. The guide was friendly, the English was good and useful information was provided.
It was my pleasure to make this visit to the special capsule building which may no longer exist in the near future. The unit was purposely renovated to restore the original character in the 1970s and brought my memories back. The guide is professional and have a wide knowledge in architecture, we had exchanged the build topics between Japan and my place.
Thank you for taking capsule tower tour with me. I have enjoyed our conversation much. Hope you are enjoying traveling Izumo province. Bet you have visited the main hall building of Izumo Taisha (出雲大社) which is about 25 meter high. However it is said that original main hall height was about double of the present height. I hope you will Google the ancient structure of Izumo Taisha. Yoshi
