Japan Tour Reviews

Outstanding, Flexible and Authentic Tour

During my stay in Japan I had the honour to spend a half day tour with Melody. We had a fantastic time at a maid cafe, where Melody was able to teach a lot about the different styles of maid cafes in Japan. As I have very limited Japanese he was able to help me talk with the maids and ensure I had the best possible experience. As Melody is quite popular there we found that staff were frequently coming to chat and create a very warm environment. Aside from the maid cafe, we also went shopping through Electric Town and music shops in Ochanomizu where I found a fantastic deal on some equipment. Melody was extremely helpful with these and did some research in advance, it was truly an above and beyond experience. The tour was very flexible, accommodating and felt like spending a day with a good friend. Nothing felt too structured or sanitised, so I was able to have a very natural and authentic experience. During the tour we also came across other places for me to visit later in my trip. Having learned a lot from Melody I was able to confidently visit a maid bar we went past in Akihabara, and it was absolutely one of the most fun nights in my entire life. I cannot recommend Melody highly enough. Please be sure to book some time with him to make the most out of your visit.

Wonderful tour

The guide provides excellent experience. She was knowledgeable, friendly and well organised, making every visit enjoyable and informative. The itinerary was thoughtfully planned, allowing enough time at each location. Virginie was very attentive to the group’s needs. We were 4 French Canadians of 65 years old. She speaks very well both French and English. Thank you again

Private Tours in Japan

Learning about Japan has never been easier with our local, expert tour guides leading the way, from a tour through Okayama, to the inner gems of Shikoku.

Ready to take on Japan’s sites and go beyond the usual? Kurashiki's Bikan Historical Quarter is a beautifully preserved Edo-period district, and with a knowledgeable tour guide, you can encounter traditional architecture, willow-lined canals, and charming shops. From historical context, to share stories about the area, it’s time to see the land of the rising sun the right way.

To see a side of Japan not commonly noticed, talk to a local tour guide about peaceful pockets of relaxation like Iya Valley, a rugged setting with high cliffs, vine bridges, and traditional thatched-roof houses waiting to be explored.
