What Is a Private Tokyo Cherry Blossom Tour Like? A Licensed Guide's Report
The guests were visitors from Oceania, and it was their first time in Japan. Since they had lived in Oceania for a long time, they spoke clear, easy-to-understand English. The weather was calm with no wind, and although the blossoms were the early-blooming Kanhizakura variety, they were able to see the cherry blossoms they had long hoped to see, and I believe they were very satisfied. For lunch, I took them to "Asakusa Umaimon Azuma," which offers a wide range of options, and they were very pleased. The guests were cheerful and friendly throughout, and they were easy and pleasant to guide.

Hi, I am Nobu, a National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter (English).
I have been an English guide in Tokyo area since January 2017.
Tokyo is a wonderful city, and you may enjoy this city by yourselves.
Even so, I recommend you go around with a guide, especially if it is your first time visit to Tokyo.
A good guide will help you to understand about Tokyo and Japan as well as how to use convenient but complicated public transportations more effectively.
I am glad if I can help you to make your tour more enjoyable.
I am looking forward to meeting you in Tokyo soon!

Pleasant Intro to Tokyo
Nobu was an experienced and informative guide. It was a great introduction to Tokyo – a busy and vastly interesting city. We learned about Japanese history and toured some of the major sites including the Imperial gardens, a Buddhist temple, a Shinto shrine, and the bustling Shibuya Crossing. Nobu helped us get familiar with the subway system and explained some of Japanese cuisine. We greatly enjoyed our tour and recommend it to others!
