Thank you to all the guests who joined us at the East Gardens of the Imperial Palace tour.



It was once again an exceptionally hot day. We did our best to choose routes with shades and made frequent stops to cope with the heat. According to the news today, 2025 was the hottest summer in terms of average temperature since 1898 when the records began. I would like to remind our guests to take care during their stay in Japan because it doesn’t look like it’s going to get better any time soon.
As we made our way to the East Gardens, one of our guests told me how she would choose walking tours by local guides whenever possible. I totally understand, as I do the same when I am a traveler. It makes me feel that I get a better understanding of the places and its people. Hopefully our guests feel the same way with the Tokyo Free Walking Tour, and I find it encouraging that many of the guests do multiple tours with us.
