One day to experience all we can at age 71 and 73

We are active seniors but I have a 11 week old right knee that I had not put a full mile at a time one it yet. I booked this guide with great hopes to be back to 100% with activity. Once we arrived we asked for some plan modifications with intermittent breaks. Nobuyuki (Sammy) did not skip a beat and had a wonderful day in the works for us that included travel to wonderful photo spots, we saw Mt Fuji, took a bullet train, and a mountain bus ride to a beatiful area where we could photograph rivers, bridges and hills. We cruised across a beautiful lake and took gondola up so high your ears popped to see a steaming sulfur hot stream. Lunch was fantastic with lots of easy walking and shopping along the way. I sincerely feel like we got the best tour of Japan we could have had with our short time allotment. To have someone take responsibility for getting a couple of seniors through the beautiful countryside and know that you are in competent hands for the entire duration can’t be short changed. I know we would have spent the day walking around our hotel area, probably not leaving a 2 mile area where with this guide, we felt safe and certain we would have GREAT memories. Thank you, Sammy!

Unforgettable Day in Tokyo

Noboyuki was an amazing tour guide for our day in Tokyo. He showed us so many "must-visit" sites for first-time visitors while also finding time to guide us to places that matched our unique interests. Thanks to his expert guidance, we covered so much more than we would have on our own. His knowledge about navigating the city was impressive, and he shared his knowledge of the city and its sites in a way that was easy to understand and interesting. Noboyuki was also very friendly and made us feel comfortable the whole time. Whether we were visiting busy markets or peaceful temples, he made the experience special and memorable.

Fantastic Experience

Sammy was a great host, taking us around some of the top spots in Tokyo on a whirlwind tour. With his local knowledge he was able to take us directly to some great photo spots we would never have found otherwise. It was really interesting hearing the back story to each location as we travelled and local train transit tips
