This was just the most amazing afternoon tour of one of the most historically robust areas of Tokyo. Hiroko was my tour guide who took me on a journey through time describing in detail the evolution of Asakusa and Yanaka though the centuries and various period eras, seamlessly connecting them to the settings we visited. It all lent a real tangibility and connection that made me feel I too had become part of the history we immersed in if for only a day. Hiroko is of the most personable nature and I felt very much in company of a best friend who went to great extents to make the tour both special and forever memorable. I highly recommend this tour to anyone seeking to learn more about local Japanese history from an intimate and detailed perspective.
