What to Expect

On this tour, you'll visit a Shinto Shrine, Japanese garden and Buddhist temple. You'll enjoy traditional Tokyo.

I’ll meet you at Harajuku station.
We’ll go to Meiji Shrine. Meiji Shrine has bountiful nature and it’s an oasis of serenity. Inside the precincts, you may forget that the place is located in Tokyo.
Then we’ll move to Komagome by JR. We’ll stroll around Rikugien garden. Rikugien garden is one of the most beautiful Japanese gardens in Tokyo.
The garden is beautiful especially in autumn when there are many colored leaves.
After that we’ll go to Sensouji temple in Asakusa. Sensouji temple is the oldest temple in Tokyo. I believe you’ll enjoy the hustle and bustle of Asakusa area.
If you'd like to buy some traditional Japanese souvenirs, Nakamise shopping street is one of the best place to go!

Hello, I'm Yoko. I was born and brought up in Ashikaga, Tochigi prefecture (80 km north from Tokyo) and I've lived in Tokyo for more than 20 years.
I love traveling, both overseas and inside Japan. After I visited other countries and saw many local cultures there, I realized that Japan has a variety of unique cultures with a lot of tourist attractions.
I hope you enjoy your stay in Japan. I'm looking forward to seeing you soon!

Hi Yoko, We truly appreciate all you did for us regarding our last minute change of tours for both days as well as your ability to accomadate our special requests. We thoroughly enjoyed your expertise. The tip you gave us regarding how to transfer 2 different subways in Kyoto was invaluable. We would definitely try to contact you for future tours when we get to see your beautiful country again. My wife is thinking about referring you to her coworker who may be interested in traveling to Tokyo in the near future.

Yoko:

Dear Cheng-i, ?Thank you very much for taking your time to post a great review. I’m very happy to hear that you enjoyed Tokyo and I’m relieved to hear that you didn't get lost in Kyoto. I really enjoyed the 2 days with you and your family and I’m very impressed with all of your thoughtfulness. Thank you very much for giving me such a great opportunity. I hope you’ll come to Japan again in the near future and I'm looking forward to seeing all of your family again. Yoko
