Brazilian Family in rainy Tokyo
It was unfortunate that it sometime rained heavily in two days the family spent in Tokyo. Nevertheless they fully enjoyed the tour. First shopping. They bought cosmetic products in Mega Donq, second handed Kimono in Harajuku and the figures of Monster-Hunt in Akihabara and Shibuya. Then they ate authentic Sushi in a traditional restaurant at Tsukiji Outer Market and finally could learn the life style of the common people at the middle of 19 century in Tokyo (called Edo at that time) at the museum. In spite of rain, their visit turned to be unforgettable.
Family from UK enjoyed visiting local temples and Goshuin collection.
Family from UK enjoyed Tokyo on Aug 3 & 4 before cruise, Aug 3 for younger side to visit Harajuku and Aug 4 for parent`s side to visit older place of Asakusa visiting two Buddhism temples. Two teenage daughters have been loving Goshuin from the beginning of their stay in Japan.
Young Australians Look Good in Kimonos
I guided two Australians to “Tokyo City i” in KITTE. Here they could try on kimonos for free. They looked great in their kimonos. After getting dressed, they tried their hand at origami, paper-folding. Everyone had fun making "kabuto" helmets.
The four British families that Takashi guided enjoyed talking with the monks at the temple. We received a message of thanks from them.
Today has been unforgettable. Thank you for allowing us to attend your family temple.
We received a message of thanks from a Belgian father and daughter who were guided by Masahiro from our association.

French Family Very Happy with Japanese Sushi
I took a French family of four to Sushizanmai, a conveyor-belt sushi restaurant in Tsukiji. They were delighted with the fatty tuna (o-toro) and medium-fatty tuna (chu-toro). They made sure to note the restaurant's name and address, saying they would definitely return there if they ever visit Japan again.
