Amazing Experience for the Value~ Foreigner Friendly!
For the value, it’s unbeatable. You get an awesome tour guide who speaks English and Japanese (we had Kiyoko who was so friendly), and a bus for your group to see some sites and get historical context from the guide

Good starting tour for Tokyo
Cool tour to get some informed info around Tokyo. The shrine is a little to busy to get around in the allotted time and felt more focused on the shops which definitely did not help the time factor. Kuniko was a great guide even gave tips for rest of stay in Japan
