Thumbs up - The day was raining and we had no idea what to expect. Koki was awesome. They took so much care to provide blankets and a tarp over our legs so we would not get wet. Koki was soaked but had a smile the whole time and gave us some great insights of the places he took us. Would highly recommend.

Thanks Asami san! - Extraordinary experience with Asami san! Took a 45 min course on a sunny day and it was really worth it. Asami san kept chatting with us and introduced us the history and culture of the temple and the surrounding area. Really a fun and enjoyable tour!

A passionate and beautiful rickshaw driver - Today's weather was a bit cold, and it looked like it might rain. Because of this weather, we were not very excited about this trip. So we left Asakusa and thought, "Maybe I should choose a rickshaw..." and chose a rickshaw. But this situation changed completely when we were approached by our rickshaw driver, Suzuki Akinasu. Her passion blew away the weather and taught us the beauty of Asakusa that we did not know. Even though we were foreigners, she patiently taught us one word at a time. We talked in detail about the height of the Skytree, the unique shape of the Asahi Beer headquarters, and the history of Nitenmon. Originally, we could not see the Skytree very well, and it was a cold and boring situation, but now it doesn't bother us at all. She also agreed to our request to take photos and take pictures. What a fun person. On the way, she also told us in detail about the pilgrimage sites of Kochikame and Demon Slayer. The flame of passion in my heart was lit again. Afterwards, we bought some ningyo-yaki, yokan, and souvenirs, and enjoyed Asakusa until 3pm. Thank you so much to the beautiful Aquinas!

A fun, worthwhile touristy quick experience. - Yes, I know, taking a rickshaw ride in Japan is a bit cliche, but being only 30 minutes, this is a fun, touristy cliche. Our guides were super-friendly and knowledgeable about several of the area buildings. We booked a quick ride before visiting Senso-ji Temple. The timing worked out perfectly. I think choosing only 30 minutes is the best option as the novelty would wear off quickly beyond that.
