We thoroughly recommend Akira as a personal guide to Tokyo. He is friendly, engaging and has a great sense of humour and it feels as though you are discovering the city with a friend rather than a guide. Akira clearly loves Tokyo and he brings a personal touch to his explanations which give a great sense of what it is like to live in this huge and multi faceted city. We gave Akira some information about our interests beforehand, and he tailored a wonderful tour which included some well known places but more importantly some places which we would not have discovered were it not for him, and simply followed a guidebook. He also provided us with extra information and links to other places we might want to visit. Thank you Akira, you helped to make our visit to Tokyo informative, fascinating and fun.
Dear Christel, Thank you so much for the great review. I am so happy that you enjoyed the day with me. Guiding you and Rob was like guiding people who I met for the first time but known for many years. The weather was unpleasant that day and we had to change our itinerary, but something good happened that I found something in common between us when we started enjoying conversation at the coffee shop. After we talked enthusiastically about things we love such as Murakami, Beatles, Keb Mo, and etc, I started to have a feeling that it would be a fun day and I am so happy that the feeling was right. The rest of the 6 hours was like discovering the city with a friend rather than customers. All the places we went were places that I have visited hundreds of times however, being with great people like you and Rob, the sceneries never get me bored or tired but it bring me joy, fun, and new discoveries. Thank you so much for the great time. And also, thank you so much for paying respect to locals and its culture. I am looking forward to another chance to explore my loving city together. Sincerely, Akira
It was a pleasure to go around Malta with Cynthia. She is a very good guide, full of facts and very interesting explanations. She was a pleasure to deal with and you will not be disappointed with her tour, which she customizes based on your interests. She also advised us on local treats and places and I will recommend Cynthia to anyone visiting Malta
Not only did she tailor make an itinerary that was outstanding covering everything we wanted to see and even more. The tour ran like clockwork. Her English is perfect. She organised for us to visit the old Tokyo village and a fire ceremony which was one of the highlights of our trip. Such a lovely lady, easy to talk to and unbelievable knowledgeable and responsive. She took tons of photos of my husband and myself which was a thoughtful added extra.
Atsuko小姐是個很認真的在地導遊，我本來就對於金澤從幕府時代到明治時代的轉變很有興趣，但是並非所有疑問都能在網路上找到答案，幸好敦子小姐以日本人的角度，解答了我的許多疑惑。 敦子小姐本身的準備很充分，還帶了一本資料夾，以備補充說明之用，畢竟很多景點的說明並不是很完整。 當天我們覺得最好玩的，是去參觀金澤聖靈修道院聖堂，我太太是基督徒，對於天主教堂比較陌生，當天看到聖堂內的榻榻米座席，都覺得非常有趣，再加上整個聖堂沒有其他觀光客，有點像是到了一個很安靜的私房景點，非常棒。 這是我第一次拜訪金澤，本來以為金澤這種小地方，一輩子造訪一次就夠了，去過才發現，金澤很值得多次造訪，尤其我們非常慶幸沒有用半天的時間去走金澤城跟兼六園，因為這些地方太大了，正確的欣賞方法是在金澤小住一個月，然後一點點一點點地品嚐。 再次謝謝敦子小姐。
非常感謝你們參加我的半天遊並對我的評價。 你們非常熟識日本歷史、文化太令我吃驚了！我能夠跟你們一起度過了非常愉快的時光。 令我最高興的是你們喜歡上金澤。有機會再次見面！再次感謝你們參加我的半天遊！
