Elegí vivir en Japón toda mi vida por la gente que vive aquí. Me hacen sentir agradecida de poder vivir aquí. Cada día es una aventura más para mí. Más de 25 empresas japonesas, con sede en 6 prefecturas diferentes (Osaka, Tokio, Nara, Kobe, Saitama y Ehime). Mi objetivo es que los viajeros vivan en Japón a largo plazo para experimentar la emoción, la gratitud y la alegría que siento todos los días. Puedes encontrarme levantando pesas todos los días.
Scott our tour guide was great. We did not know what to expect and we were pleasantly surprised. Not only did we learn a little bit of Tokyo history, but we learned a lot of pop culture and current aspects of daily life. We were able to somewhat easily take the train from the cruise terminal in Yokohama. We were able to walk to the train station. Take a direct train and come out right exactly where Scott asked to meet up. I would highly recommend this tour. We were so impressed with everything. Scott lives in Tokyo and worked as a translator and I believe was born in the United States. There was no language barrier whatsoever and that made it really great as a tour participant. he also made it very clear he could help with any other issues or travel. and just wanted everyone to have a great experience. I would totally take another tour of his or any guru walk tour if we had more time!
We joined Scott’s free walking tour and were initially impressed by the warm welcome and his clear, fluent English. He also handed out KitKats as a fun little reward, which was a nice touch and it brings some dynamism. After the tour, he sent a very thorough list of recommendations via WhatsApp, which we appreciated! Unfortunately, the actual tour experience didn’t quite live up to expectations. Some of the stops were quite odd - walking through department stores didn’t add much to the experience and at one point, trash cans were treated as a highlight. There was also an optional coffee stop that created an awkward divide: some people grabbed drinks while others just stood around waiting. He also interviewed school girls in a park, which was quite akward… Overall, while there were some nice elements, the tour felt disjointed and lacked meaningful stops. Not quite what I was hoping for.
Scott did a great job. He gave a great insight into the modern day culture of Japan and went to a couple of spots we would have never went to without him. Also his openness to help and support with guides and recommend outside the scope of the tour was incredibly resourceful.
I really enjoyed this tour. Even in the cold and rain Scott did a great job of keeping us engaged. We went to some cool locations and learned about the history and pop culture of the Japanese. It went by so fast and a great way to start my visit to Tokyo. Highly recommend this tour.
