Great Tour Experience - Frequent travelers who enjoy private tours. The trip to Nikko is one of the best we have ever been on. Imran was right on time and arrived in a luxury van. He was knowledgable and pointed out significant attractions. The tour was ten hours and I've never been on a tour that covered so many attractions. They went above and beyond to make it a memorable day. I highly recommend The TokyoTravel.

All day tour of Nikko with driver and guide with Thetokyotravel - We originally signed up for a English speaking driver for all day tour of Nikko with Thetokyotravel, before our trip was offered a guide for a fee. Imran was the guide and he made the tour exceptional and complete with his knowledge. We were a party of three and their touring vanwas deluxe and comfortable. I would highly recommend Thetokyotravel.

Above and beyond expectations - The tour delivered far more than expected. This was our first experience with a private tour and we would definitely book with this group again. They went out of their way to ensure we were comfortable throughout the trip, made the effort to understand our group’s interests and they even added a hidden gem stop at the end of the tour because of our interests. This was definitely one of the highlights of our trip to Japan. A couple of notes: Bring cash- many of the stops only accept cash, so you’ll want to make sure you have enough. Don’t schedule something for after this tour, as traffic back to Tokyo can be unpredictable and it’s not something the tour can control.
