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
