Very nice experience but very overpriced - The experience of having a picknick under the Sakura trees was amazing and Marc did a fantastic job securing a spot for us. However, this tour is extremely overpriced. To pay more than 400 euro for a lunch is just tooo much and we even had to pay for our own metro-tickets. Big fail for Viator, but would hire Marc back privately without a doubt!

Great tour, but trees weren’t in bloom yet - Unfortunately, the cherry blossom bloom was late this year because of the cold weather. My tour guide went out of his way to find the few blooming trees, and added some additional stops to make up for the lack of blooming trees.

Well done! - The best part of my experience was the lovely, knowledgeable guide, Kyoko. Given the constant rain and the chilly weather which led to cherry blossoms not blooming she was quick to improvise and we spent a lovely time covering alternative activities which weren’t even on my list. Thank you, Kyoko
