Quite simply a MUST for anyone!

This is a fascinating tour of the museum delivered by Bianca. Yes, you could visit the museum yourself, but with Bianca as your guide and storyteller she delivers an impeccable tour that brings the town of Fukgawa to life! You finish the tour more enlightened about the way of life of ordinary people during this period. It is outstanding, the best tour we have done anywhere in the world!

An immersion to the daily life of common people

The tour is a cozy and intimate visit to the life of the common people during the Edo period, understanding the routine of the simple workers of that time by visiting their houses, shops and public spaces.

Great tour

Thank you for the informative and interactive insight into the life of Japanese people in XVII-XIX century. If you're interactive in history, my recommendation!
