We fully enjoyed walking around the main streets and of highlights of Shibuya with Sena. The area is vibrant and crowded, Sena guided us to the most iconic spots like the Shibuya crossing, we saw it from above and did the crossing in person. We visited some nice comercial areas all reachable from the train station underground. We walked around the old streets were authentic small food booths are located. We went sake tasting. Sena kindly recommended and drop us to an excellent restaurant that served great sushi. We highly recommend Sena.

Unforgettable Tokyo-Tour with Sheilina
Our tour through Japan turned into a truly tremendous adventure — all thanks to the one and only Sheilina! From the very first moment, she radiated an friendly, warm energy that immediately made us feel welcome and incredibly well taken care of.
Sheilina was the embodiment of attentiveness, kindness, and genuine care. She consistently went above and beyond to make sure every detail was perfect. Her helpfulness knew no bounds, her sense of humor was absolutely delightful, and she always had our happiness at heart. It was crystal clear that she wanted nothing but the absolute best for us, and she worked with true dedication to ensure our satisfaction at every step.
One moment that deeply moved us: even before the tour officially started, Sheilina went out of her way to stand in line at the incredibly popular donut shop “I am Donut” — just to bring us a treat from one of the most sought-after spots in town. That act of thoughtfulness truly touched us.
We are endlessly grateful to Sheilina for her warmth, her loving energy, and for turning this tour into something truly magical. With her caring heart and sparkling personality, she gave us an experience we will never forget.
