Jason Joel was freaking amazing. We learned so much about Tokyo as we are first timers in Japan. He was super entertaining and we had so much fun!!!!! We would definitely book through JJ again!!!

A morning with Moto at the market

This was one of our favorite tours of the entire trip. We met our guide, Moto-san, at Turret Coffee, which is on the Michelin Guide. We then walked to the market and had a traditional Japanese breakfast. After that, we walked and shopped the market, collecting samples, snacks and fish for our lunch. We had ice cold oysters, roasted black soybeans, tuna from the Tuna Princess and more. We stopped at the top of the market for our lunch which included how to grate fresh wasabi, fresh pickled vegetables including the beautiful baby aubergines. One of the best treats was Moto chronicling our day with photos that were shared with us.

A delightful and well worth experience.

The Asakusa Twilight Tour was well worth the time. Ray, our guide, covered the interesting historical points of interest as well as those of modern Asakusa. Rays assistance in helping my wife who is blind and in a wheelchair, catered the tour to suite our needs. The evening meal was an interesting experience for us both. Our photos will recall many happy times. Thanks Ray and Arigato.

Culinary and history education

Dianti was our guide. He was very personable and knowledgeable. We learned a lot about the various types of Japanese cuisine/dishes but also the culture and history associated with the foods. Would highly recommend this tour.

Great guide and interesting destination

Jacob was an excellent host and guide for our trip to Mt. Fuji. Unfortunately the mountain wasn't visible because of clouds but he had arranged enough other interesting things to make it worthwhile. We toured the Mt. Fuji museum, a shrine, and a sake brewery. The day started with self-heating bentos, which is a miracle of technology, and ended with delicious yakisoba from a famous eatery. Jacob was also very helpful in directing us to our destination after the tour. His english is excellent so we had no trouble conversing and learning about the region.

Asakusa Food Tour

The only mistake we made with Arigato was not contacting them earlier in our planning. We had no idea how much easier, smoother and relaxing the whole trip became after Arigato took over. They have access to places and events you'd, or your group, would never find and experience going there on your own. The attention to details they employ after listening to what You want to do and see is incredible (from pick up to drop off). Don't spend hours on line reading bias travel ads. Go first class - contact Anne and the team, its absolutely worth it!

Takashi “Tak” (Arigato Tours) was an amazing host & guide. We truly enjoyed our time with him and the restaurants and food he chose was delicious. We recommend him to all who wish to have an English speaking guide and want something to remember. Well done “Tak”! Hope to join you again in the future for another great experience.

Did a Kyoto food tour with Tak as our guide and it was easily one of the highlights of our whole Japan trip. I was traveling with my grandparents and he was great with all of us, patient, funny, and clearly knows Kyoto inside and out. He took us to spots we never would have found on our own and had a story or some history for everything we passed. He even took photos of us throughout the night and sent them all afterward, which was a really nice touch. By the end it felt less like a tour and more like being shown around by a friend. Highly recommend asking for Tak if you book with Arigato!

Great Kyoto Sake Tour

We did the Kyoto sake tour and had a great time with Laiana! She was very informative and provided some nice touches as we walked around the neighborhood. We learned a lot and would recommend this tour to anyone visiting Kyoto.

Yukiko was just fabulous. A great guide that not only is very knowledgeable but also quite entertaining and carries a certain warmth to her character that puts you at ease. Arigato Travel is blessed to have her and thank you again for being our guide throughout the matcha tour.
