Tokyo Tour Guide - Leandra I.

I’ve called Japan home for seven years, embracing everything from Tokyo’s vibrant urban energy to the tranquillity of the countryside. Before becoming a guide, I explored Tokyo like a curious long-term traveller, uncovering unusual temples, quirky landmarks, hidden backstreets, local live music venues, rural mountain villages, and one-of-a-kind cultural gems. My passion lies in crafting immersive journeys that dive deep into Japan’s heart, sparking a sense of wonder and escape that makes travellers feel worlds away from home. I’m excited to guide you through the Tokyo labyrinth. This city is endlessly fascinating—so layered and dynamic that even with a lifetime here, you’d only scratch the surface. I’ll show you how to navigate it like a local, as mastering the transport system isn’t as tricky as it seems, and I’ll help you gain the confidence to explore Tokyo on your own while we focus on the city’s hidden treasures. Together, we can visit parts of Tokyo most travellers overlook—the nostalgic charm of the Shitamachi, the hustle of salaryman districts, the neon-lit buzz of cyber Tokyo, and tranquil local power spots. Let’s discover the city’s hidden depths and create memories that will last a lifetime!

Kanagawa Tour Reviews

Odawara Tour

We had a great experience working with Yuka to arrange a custom tour from Tokyo to Odawara Castle. She was incredibly helpful in organizing all the details, including our bullet train ride, making the entire process smoothly. The tour itself was fantastic! We learned so much about the history of Odawara Castle and truly enjoyed exploring the Samurai Museum, where we saw fascinating displays of samurai armor. It was a well-planned and enjoyable tour, and we appreciate Yuka’s effort in making it such a great experience. Thank you, Yuka!

Thank you for your good comments. I enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Odawara Castle and views from the top of donjon with you. I'm happy to talk with you two and you had an experience of the bullet train ride.

Great tour with Seigo san

We had a great time with Seigo san during our trip to Yokohama. We had fun time and enjoy a lot at Redbrick Building, Daikoku PA and Umihotaru. In fact, it was Seigo san give us suggestion to visit Umihotaru and we end up enjoy a lot with the beautiful sunset there. Seigo san also take good photos for us. We really recommend Seigo san and will definately look for him for our next trip to Japan again. Sharing here some good photos taken by Seigo san.

Catherine san, Thank you so much for your wonderful review. I’m delighted to hear that you enjoyed visiting Yokohama’s Red Brick Warehouse, watching the sunset and Fujisan from Umihotaru, and exploring the Daikoku Parking Area car meeting. I, too, had an amazing time spending the day with you and your two wonderful sons. Thank you also for sharing the two fantastic photos. They will always be a cherished memory. I look forward to seeing you again! Warm regards, Seigo

Wonderful first of three days with our amazing guide, Seigo!

My wife and I have just returned from a wonderful trip to Japan that was highlighted by 3 glorious days in and around the Hakone area. This trip was made so wonderful and memorable as a direct result of having Seigo as our guide throughout. We were fortunate to engage Seigo for a 3 day tour of Kamakura, Hakone and Mt. Fuji, and each day provided highlights and memories that will last forever. This is a Day one review only as there is much to describe! Seigo arranged to meet and greet us upon our arrival into Tokyo at Haneda airport and we immediately began seeing and learning and experiencing all that the area had to offer. We started with a coastline drive past Yokohama and towards Hakone via Kamakura, which was an unexpected treasure. We visited the Great Buddha of Kamakura where words fail to describe its impressive size and beauty. We arrived just prior to sunset and got to see the Great Buddha in an exceptional light, and even were in time to explore the inside of it to marvel at the genius of its construction. Seigo was extremely informative of the history of the Great Buddha and took many pictures of us! From there we traveled to the Islet of Enoshima for a quick visit of this seaside town. We can easily understand how both Kamakura and Enoshima are destinations unto themselves worthy of a future visit. After a quick stop at a local 7-Eleven (requested by us) for snacks and use of a local ATM, we traveled to Hakone Gora to our hotel, again learning about the greater Hakone area from Seigo. All along the way, Seigo shared his knowledge from having grown up in the area and provided tips and suggestions to make our planned 3 days together memorable. Based on our suggestions and thoughts, Seigo was able to revise the plans for our visit to meet our personal requests. When arriving at our hotel, he was able to make arrangements for some of our other planned activities for us with hotel staff. A wonderful introduction to Hakone area!

Howard san, I appreciate the heartwarming reviews. Thanks to you and your wife, I also enjoyed our three-day tours. What made me the happiest was that you said you'd had a lot of fun visiting and seeing what you had expected and visiting my recommended places such as Kamakura and Enoshima. I hope you return to the area and explore it more. Seigo
