“A memorable and meaningful day in Tokyo with Akira”
Spending the day with Akira was truly one of the highlights of our time in Japan. From the moment we met him, it was clear we were in good hands. He is kind, warm, incredibly knowledgeable, and genuinely thoughtful in how he tailored the day for us. We began at the beautiful Meiji Shrine, where Akira thoughtfully guided us through the customs and proper etiquette, allowing us to experience the space with greater understanding and respect. That moment set the tone for the day. We had already seen a number of the tourist sights, so Akira designed a route that let us explore quieter neighborhoods and local gems that gave us an appreciation of Tokyo’s culture and daily life. He shared history and stories in a way that was engaging, and was always happy to answer our many questions. Whether we were walking through peaceful streets, browsing small shops, enjoying amazing coffee, or having some of the best melon we have ever tasted, everything felt easy and intentional thanks to Akira’s presence. Akira also took fantastic, candid photos along the way. We left the tour feeling more connected to Tokyo than we would have without Akira, and were incredibly grateful to have met someone who was so easy to talk to and clearly loves his city. Thank you, Akira, for a wonderful day we won’t forget. We hope to explore more with you next time we return to Tokyo!

Kuni was the best. Took us to some great places I never would have found on my own. I’m already planning my next visit and will definitely want to do this again.
