Thank you so much for joining our regular tour on Sep. 9th. There were 15 guests from Germany, Canada, Philippines, Spain, Israel, and the US, and divided into three groups. It was a sunny and hot day like a summer coming back again. Everyone looked tired a little bit, so we tried to have a break sometimes in the shade, with a drink or an ice cream, ha ha! We also welcomed a one-day trainee student as a guide from a high school in Tokyo. She felt nervous because that was her first experience as ...

We would like to appreciate all of those who were energetic enough to join our tour this afternoon. We meet 12 guests from U.S.A., Canada, Germany, Switzerland, New Zealand, and Philippines. Although there were thick clouds in the sky, the weather cooperated with us. We could almost do without our umbrella!! Just like other countries, this summer was "a tough experience"for us. The heat went up so high with continuous typhoons... but we could find some elementsofthe upcoming autumn this day. The...

7th of August is Risshu in Japanese calendar, which means beginning of autumn. In contrast to the implication of the name, we had another day over 33 degree on 11th of August. It is our big pleasure that we welcomed 18 guests from US, UK, Singapore, Spain, Portuguese, and China. We spent a good time together on such a hot day. As always, we started from Tokyo station, and we walked through tall buildings. It is fascinating to see mixture of modern and historical sight at one glance. We carefully...

It has been an unusually hot summer. Despite the heat, tourists continue to visit Japan to enjoy holidays. On our tour to the East Garden of the Imperial Palace on August 4, 15 guests from 9 countries joined us. Thank you so much. It was another hot day with high temperature up to 35 degrees, so we chose to walk and stay in the shades of trees as much as possible, took longer rests at air conditioned rest houses to reduce the risk of heat stroke. We were healed by the gentle wind coming through ...

Luckily, scorching heat seemed to sooth down after lasting for 20 days. But what came next was an "unpredictable typoon". We fixed our eyes on the weatherforcast anxiously but were happy to draw a conclusion that we would be able to conduct our tour at the last minute since the storm would not hit us during the tour and the transportation was in usual operation. Despite such a weather condition, it was our huge pleasure meeting each of our guests. We had an AM tour and an PM tour this day and we...

During the tour we chose to do our guiding In the shades, like under the trees or inside a rest house. Fortunate...
