We had a wonderful experience in Yokohama with Yuki. He was very informative being a native of Yokohama and took special care of me, by slowing down the pace because I was recovering from Respiratory illness. My pace was slow and I would often stop for a picture of nature and he would patiently wait on me. We enjoyed his kindness the most. Recommend highly. Sandi & Chip from Hawaii
Dear Sandi Thank you very much for your review. I'm very happy to know you appreciated my tour. Thank you for taking my tour of Yokohama. Yuki
Thanks Yuki for a great first day in Tokyo. Yuki picked us up from our accommodations and clearly explained where we’d go and how we would get there. We visited Happo-En, the Imperial Palace Gardens, Asakusa and at the end Yuki delivered us to the SkyTree where our tour concluded. We had a delicious lunch which he recommended and everything went smoothly. It was a good introduction to Tokyo and using the train system. Yuki’s enthusiasm and knowledge was valuable. Highly recommended. Thanks Yuki!
Dear Rachel Thank you for your review You described it quite well so nothing to add Thank you again for taking my tour And enjoy your trip in Japan Yuki
Even though I had limited time, I had an incredible experience with Mr. Yuki as my tour guide in Tokyo. His deep knowledge of the city's history and culture made each site visit fascinating. Mr. Yuki's enthusiasm and passion for his work were evident, and he went above and beyond to ensure a memorable and enjoyable tour. His friendly demeanor and excellent communication skills made the entire experience seamless and enjoyable. I highly recommend Mr. Yuki to anyone looking to explore Tokyo or other cities with an expert guide.
Dear Carlos Thank you for your review I m glad you have enjoyed your stay in Japan Thank you for taking my tour Yuki
A beautiful journey to an ancient city with a great history. A tour of the places of our choice, an amazing experience of Shinkansen bullet train travel. Yuki had prepared detailed information for each stop with pictures, which he presents on a tablet. Great, very clear. Thank you, Petr and Eli
Dear Petre Thank you for writing the great reviews on all of the tours you took. Food is very important in my tour and you are a perfect guest for my tours. You ate ramen, sushi, Kobe beef, Chinese dishes, pork cutlet, and cooked Fugu with excellent sake. I'll take you to taste raw Fugu next time. Yuki
