Meebi was a terrific driver and guide who took us to all the sites that we wanted to see in Nikko.
He was on time and made the effort to give us heaps on information about the area and safely dropped us back at the hotel after a wonderful day.
Highly recommended.

Zaini's happy when you are happy.
I traveled with my 2 adult daughters. The day was everything we could have hoped for. Zaina, our guide and driver, arrived on time in a comfortable Toyota Land Cruiser. Plenty of room for the 3 of us. The drive to Nikko from Tokyo was a scenic 2.5hrs, with 1 rest stop. The day visiting the Temples, Nikko National Park, waterfalls and sights on the way was superb. I highly recommend this tour.
