Best way to see Tokyo!
Caffrey was a wonderful guide! This is the absolute best way to enjoy a day in Tokyo. Having a private car was a more leisurely way to see several areas of interest comfortably and safely without worrying about getting lost! Caffrey gave us plenty of time to explore each of the areas we requested and was so friendly and kind. Highly recommend!!
