A fabulous experience

We would highly recommend this tour for the following reasons: Our guide, May was very lovely, friendly and extremely helpful. We experienced Japanese food never tried before as we were taken to areas of Tokyo not commonly experienced by tourist. All restaurant meals were delicious. A fabulous experience !
