Wonderful day around Tokyo with Gulay

My son and I along with our friends had a wonderful time with Gulay exploring Tokyo. Helped us understand the nuances of the areas and showed us a lot. Also provided us some ideas for rest of trip which was helpful. Also able to get us last minute entrance to a MiniPig cafe which was Awesome.

Very accommodating!

Seden was great. We had a family group from 7 to 70+ with varying ability levels. She tailored the tour to our needs, and it made the tour that much more enjoyable. We loved the custom-made Cola! She was so patient and answered all of our questions. We would definitely recommend her.
