5.00Nicolas Kumano was our tour guide and he was amazing. If you like hearing about the Imperial Palace and its history then this tour is for you. We are from Florida and Nicolas spoke English. He was extremely knowledgable of the Japanese culture. You will walk about 1.5 miles which isn't a lot. He also helped us get a taxi at the end. Thank you Nicolas!!!

5.00The tour was great! I strongly recommend to anyone who wants a break from the bustle of areas like, Shinjuku or Shibuya. The garden was not overly crowded on the day of my tour, but definitely a worthwhile site to visit! It was relaxing and peaceful to stroll around the beautiful and peaceful imperial garden. Our guide, Shin, was an exceptional guide. He was articulate in presenting the interesting history of Japan and imperial family. I certainly learned a lot. Thank you, Shin!
Great tour
