Starting from your hotel at 9:00 we will in 1 hour time arrive at Kamakura where there are historical temples, shrines and a great Buddha statue surrounded by evergreen hills and a long crescent sand beach. From Enoshima Island on the shore you may probably see Mt. Fuji. As the seaside town Kamakura is famous for its fresh seafood cuisines.

By Japan Railway you can go to Kamakura from Tokyo or Shijuku Sta. within one hour without changing trains. Kamakura itself is rather a small seaside town, but it is very popular as the place where the first shogunate (Kamakura Era) was located from 1192 for 1333. During such 150 years, unlike in Kyoto, they created their own cultures especially relating with Zen Buddhism. Every tour spot is within walking distance to the next. And if you are strong enough you can drop by Yokohama on the way back to Tokyo.

My wife and I had only one day to explore Tokyo. We were aware that navigating the intricate network of streets and subways could be a daunting task, so we decided to engage the services of a professional guide. This decision proved to be highly beneficial, as we were able to move effortlessly through each location with an expertly crafted itinerary. We successfully visited every major area we had hoped to see, and even more. I am certain that if we had attempted to explore on our own, we would have only been able to cover a fraction of what we accomplished with the assistance of our guide, Yasuro. It was a genuinely enjoyable experience spending the day with him, and we created some truly remarkable and lasting memories. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with Yasuro, who demonstrated thoughtfulness, patience, and kindness throughout the day.
Dear Mr & Mrs Dale C., Thank you very much for your generous review on my guide service. It was cloudy but a pleasantly cool autumn day. We visited historical and modern parts of Tokyo City namely Tsukiji market, Ginza Street, Imperial Palace Garden, Tokyo Station, Ahihabara, Shinjuku, Meiji-jingu Shrine and Shibuya. It is my pleasure if you could enjoy such a short time excursion. Please come back to Tokyo again. There are more nice places in and around Tokyo. Thank you again. Bon voyage! Best regards, Yasuro
We like the tour, Yasuro san came with the maps and explained everything, The weather was really hot and Mr Yasuro was really flexible to change the programme.
Dear Irina O. & family, Thank you very much for your generous review on my service. Yes, It was really hot day. But your daughter looked patient. And I observed that both of you loved her very much. Unfortunately, we could not go see Sensoji Temple, because you decided that it was too hot for your daughter. Please come back to Tokyo again when cherry starts blooming and it should not be hot. Finally, pay my respect your friends too. Thank you for everything. Best regards, Yasuro
I wanted to take a moment to share how impressed I was with the Mr Yasuro C., who assisted my daughter during her recent trip to Tokyo. From the very beginning, he made her feel at ease by meeting her at the airport and helping her navigate the subway system. His support didn’t stop there—he took the time to show her around and ensured she found her hotel without any issues. His friendliness, professionalism, and knowledge of the city made a huge difference in her experience. She felt safe, supported, and truly valued throughout her journey. I can’t thank him enough for his exceptional service. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable and caring guide in Tokyo, I highly recommend him!
Dear Cheski Baum, Thank you very much for your generous review on my guide service for your beloved daughter. I found she was very brave, clever and curious when I heard that she went to Ramen noodle shop nearby her hotel for the first night dinner, and, to my surprise, early in the next morning, she went to the Sengakuji Temple famous for the loyal 47 Samurais who dedicated their lives for their lord in the biggening of 18th century. We went around East side of Tokyo City, where there are many historical and traditional places like Imperial Palace Garden, Asakusa, etc. I suppose she can visit, by herself now, West Side of Tokyo City where there are more attractive places for young people as she already knows how to take trains and subways in Tokyo. Thank you again. Best regards, Yasuro
The guidance day with Yasuro was a must-do. It was a very smooth landing in this busy (and beautiful) Tokyo. Yasuro knows every corner of the city and was incredibly patient, adjusting to every request or need.
Dear Mr. & Mrs. Sivan, Thank you very much for the generous review for me. It was happy time for me to talk with you while taking lunch and walking thru streets and parks in Tokyo. And I learned a lot about the cultures of your country. As Kyoto is hotter than Tokyo, please take care of yourselves, and enjoy Onsen, hot spring, in Hakone. Thank you again. Best regards, Yasuro
