Our evening in Asakusa with Ema was honestly one of the highlights of our Tokyo trip. He has such a sweet and calming presence, and he made sure the entire experience felt slow, enjoyable, and perfectly paced. We tasted so many delicious dishes, each one better than the last, and his recommendations were absolutely spot-on. It felt less like a tour and more like walking around with a friend who truly knows and loves the area. Thank you, Ema, for such a memorable and heartwarming night in Asakusa. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide!

Great Market Visit and Food Tour
Our tour started in the morning and we visited the market. We learned so much and tried so many things. Jacob our guide was great and spoke perfect English. We had tuna sushi cut fresh in front of us (the best we have ever had). We tried fresh oysters, beef sashimi and many other things. The tour ended with a picnic to enjoy all of the the items we saw in the market. Great way to try many things.
