Super interesting and entertaining tour with Maki!

Published on Nov, 2024

Super interesting and entertaining tour. Our wonderful guide Maki explained the history of Kamakura and cultural facts very clearly and showed us many interesting and beautiful places. She helped us take nice photos and answered all our questions very nicely. I 100% recommend this Tokyo Localized tour with Maki!

Amazing tour with lots of insights and interesting information, in a casual nice way

Published on Nov, 2024

We went on this tour because we already have taken a lot of other tours with Japan Localized and we really enjoyed them all. Our guide Maki was so friendly and had so much interesting knowledge and stories to share with us that we weren't aware of how much we saw until we checked the step counter of our watches. It is really worth to take this tour, and we got a lot of nice pictures to remember this trip thanks to her.

Great Tour

Published on Nov, 2024

Tatsuko was so wonderful! She gave us great explanations of what we were looking at, had a wonderful sense of humor, and was very patient when we wanted to look around in shops. It was a lovely way to experience the area, and a huge help for putting the sights into a cultural context. Highly recommend :)

Amazing tour about japanese history and culture with Maki!

Published on Oct, 2024

We had an amazing tour filled with japanese history, religion and culture with our guide Maki today. She was an amazing guide, always positive and very knowledgeable. We could ask any question imaginable and time was flying whilenl chatting with her. She took more time than was originally planned and even brought small gifts. The tour is fairly new and we had a private tour as we were the only ones. We got to Kamakura via train very easy. I highly recommend to do this tour if you want to learn about Japan's history and customs!

Great tour and background to the sights
