Using a portable WiFi is a great option and this was super reliable. The battery lasted for a good 10 hours with regular use. The unit got quite hot in our bags and we noticed towards the end of the first week that the cable was a little damaged which meant it didn’t charge properly. We had another with us so used that and it worked fine. As we were travelling around, only staying in a place for a day we didn’t feel it would make sense to exchange the unit or request a new cable as we had the replacement already but I’m sure one could have been arranged if needed. Very reliable service with the unit waiting in our room when we arrived with a return envelope included.

A very instructive tour , and fantastic experience . Not only we learned so much historical facts as our guide Taka was so knowledgeable , but we were also given a lovely tour of the area from alongside the river , taken for an amazing view at the top of the contemporary information building ( The design and architecture of it in itself very interesting ) . This was followed by a tour of very charming and authentic back streets in the vicinity . We learned so much and we were lucky to have Taka for ourselves as he did not have other bookings that morning . A big Origato Kata , you made a memorable moment of our time with you .

Came during the September tournament in Tokyo, so really only saw a warm-up of the amateur guys for 30-40 mins. Still got to take a picture afterward. Same price for some reason. I'd spend your money trying to get an actual ticket if a tournament is going on if you want to see them actually compete. We got a ticket for the tournament after this and had a much better ROI. This experience is best if you want to see Sumo up close. A lot more viewers than I expected crammed into a corner of the Stable practice area. Get there early so you can sit up front, otherwise views/pictures won't be as good.

If you're looking to escape the tourist hubs and get a real local insight into the neighbourhoods of Tokyo, Andy's bike tour is a must! I really enjoyed exploring the back streets and hearing about life in the different neighbourhoods we ventured through. The selection of food was both authentic and delicious, and the stop at the standing noodle bar for lunch was quite the experience. Andy does a great job making everyone feel welcome and connects to the group on a personal level. One of favourite memories from the trip, highly recommended!

Tour bus went around Tokyo to various places that were either inspired by, or inspired Ghibli movies. Absolutely beautiful scenery and archetecture! Guide was very kind and speaks amazing English.
