Overall tour was good but was surprised that it was not the tour to the Samurai Museum since it was stated as the title of the trip. Miss Mayuko is very friendly and attentive.

A quick way to see some highlights of Nagoya city
My husband and I enjoyed the tour very much. Our local tour guide (so sorry I couldn’t recall her name) was very caring and informative. She made Nagoya castle more meaningful with all the little details and stories. She also helped us to take some amazing photo with cherry blossom. And she took us around with subway and bus which you can see how Nagoya people go about their life. Toyota museum was amazing too. Highly recommend!
