One Way Shuttle Van Transfer, Tokyo⇔Hakone Area
People used to have said that time is money. That's true.
Jet lag is what makes pleasure travel a disaster. That's true too. The best way to heal jet lag is to have a good sleep.
Unfortunately, recent shortage of active taxis are serious here in Japan, especially in some airports. when you arrive in the busiest time zone, you might have to wait for one hour just for a sedan type taxi. If you have several pieces of baggage, you would need van type vehicle. Eventually you should wait it for tow hours. That's a disaster!!!
In order to avoid these situations, Global Guide&transport Service has started transfer service for international visitors. We carefully select best drivers who might not speak fluent english, just a conversation level. But they are experts of driving knowledge. Our drivers can instantly choose the best route, when there is a terrible traffic jam. We are really excited to hear from you.

Half-Day Edo Tour with Asakusa Traditions, and Hidden History
In this tour, I will guide you through not only Asakusa's famous landmarks but also its lesser-known sides—stories and places that even many Japanese people don't know. I believe that to truly understand Japan’s history and culture, it's important to explore both the light and the shadow.
Having worked with many tour guides, I’ve noticed that most focus only on the “good” side of Japan—saying how wonderful everything is. While I love my country, I also think it's important to show a complete picture, including the difficult and complex parts of our past.

Each tour is private—only one group per session—so we can communicate freely. Feel free to ask questions at any time. I look forward to exploring Asakusa with you!
