Tour guide Tsubasa was excellent! He explained everything very well in English and we saw a lot in a short period of time.

Aiko was a wonderful host! She was very kind and fun to talk to! On our half day, we went first to Meiji shrine in Shibuya, which was gorgeous! The information Aiko gave us about the history of the sake barrels and wine barrels on the way in, as well as the Torii gate being a gift from Taiwan, was very interesting! I would have liked just a bit more time there to look around.
We also saw a ton of neat stuff on the bus on the way to the Imperial Palace, which was very neat. The statue of the samurai was interesting, and Aiko told us the meaning behind the horse's position on the statue (that it has one leg up because the samurai lost the battle, but did not die). The imperial palace was so pretty with the bridges and moat in front. Having said that, since we couldn't get close, I feel like we could have spent less time here and more at Meiji Shrine.
Finally, we went to grab some matcha! I liked the fact that they had a variety of matcha items to choose from, and the matcha place was very close to the Senso-Ji temple, where I purified, prayed, and collected yet another goshuin.
The tour description was very clear that we begin in Shibuya and end at Senso-Ji temple, which was great for my goshuin collecting. However, I did wish that they had had information in the description about having a gluten free lunch available. I may have booked the full-day tour if I had known that I would have been able to eat, as being celiac in Japan is such a challenge. Having said that, I'm not sure the half day tour was QUITE worth the price I paid, even though it WAS a good tour.
Overall, Aiko was a great tour guide and I would recommend this tour as a great sampling of some of the great sites in Tokyo!

Even though it was very rainy, Angie was sweet and kept us entertained throughout. She was knowledgeable, knew details and also gave us enough time to be by ourselves. The matcha experience was great.

We didn’t think this tour was worthwhile. At Imperial Palace you only see a bridge and not even taken to the free open gardens of the palace. This stop was pointless. The Meiji Shrine was excellent as was Asakusa. But the guide shared very little history about Tokyo or Japan or the locations. We expected to learn more about the culture and sites we visited so this was disappointing.

This tour was very average. I appreciated not having to take the subway to all these places. We were picked up in Ginza and driven to the Meiji shrine which was gorgeous. I could have spent a morning here. Then we took a drive to the Imperial Palace. Then a drive to Asakusa for matcha. The first half of the trip we briefly saw two items of interest but our guide spent most of the time counting us and ensuring us we wouldn’t be left behind and repeatedly reminding us of the upcoming stops, despite having been given a written out itinerary with photos. Would have loved to hear more about what we were seeing on our drive, history of Tokyo etc. For $100 Canadian each I expected a bit more than the tour and one cup of matcha.

I was expecting nice explanation but most of the times they were just a couple of sentences and then free time to roam around, which I could've done without a tour.
