Kagurazaka, a hidden gem town walking
This is a half-day tour exploring of the Tokyo's oldest and most beautiful feudal lord gardens, Koishikawa-Korakuen and the neighbouring town. Kagurazaka is sometimes called "Tokyo's small Kyoto" or "Paris in Tokyo". It is a very attractive town, which combines both an old and international atmosphere. You may have a chance to hear traditional songs accompanied by a shamisen, a traditional Japanese instrument when you stroll the back allies. There are more than 100 restaurants and bars.

“ Great Tour of Tokyo Highlights ”
Michiko was very knowledgeable and catered our itinerary to my location/preferences on the day of. I feel like I really got to know the city after travelling around with her. We visited so many major places in one day! I strongly recommend her.

“ Full day tour in Yokohama and Full day tour in Tokyo ”
Michiko is very professional, diligent, on-time in appointments, very mindful of itineraries set, and she mindfully catered for our preferences and requirements. She is able and very willing to help. She is most valuable with the type of work she does as a private tour guide in that she is fluent in English, knowledgeable of Japan’s historical events, and very focused in her work. We would not have been able to visit the touristy and interesting places within the two days we were in Yokohama and Tokyo if Michiko was not with us. We highly recommend her. Domo arigato gozaimasu, Michiko! Cheers! Celle and Jun
Michiko M.
Dear Celle and Jun, Oh, wow! What a nice review you gave me. Your review made me happy that I am working as a guide. I had a pleasant time with you two. I hope you will come back to Japan. Best regards, Michiko
