Tokyo Private Tours

“Tour of Tokyo”

Melody, was an absolute joy to have as a guide. He accommodated our every request even extend our guided tour at the last minute. If you are looking for an intelligent and experienced speaker don’t go any further. Your challenge if you dare, is to go to more places we went in one day. Here is a list of sites we visited: • Harajuku (Meiji shrine, Takeshita street) • Shibuya (Shibuya cross, loyal dog Hachiko) • Asakusa (Nakamise street, Sensoji temple, izakaya, Sumida river) • Oshiage (Skytree and Solamachi mall) • Akihabara (Anime town) • Ginza (Art aquarium, ramen) Thank you Melody

Rick, thank you very much for your heartwarming review. Yes, we packed in many spots at your request, since you only had one day in Tokyo. We walked more than 8 miles in a single day ; ) I hope you were able to recover the next morning. We had so many interesting conversations and shared lots of laughs. I hope the rest of your travels in Japan—and in other countries as well—will be wonderful. Hope to see you again someday! Arigato Gozaimasu.

“A Masterclass in Navigation – Hakone Day Trip with Yoshi”

We had an incredible day that would have been impossible to coordinate on our own. Yoshi expertly navigated us through an impressive array of transport: the subway, Shinkansen, buses, the Lake Ashi pirate ship, the ropeway gondola, and even the local streetcars. Because Yoshi handled all the timing and transfers, we could focus entirely on the experience. We were treated to breathtaking, clear views of Mount Fuji from several different vantage points throughout the day. A major highlight was visiting the Owakudani volcanic area, where Yoshi made sure we tried the famous black eggs (Kuro-tamago) and the local ice cream. It was a perfectly paced, high-energy adventure that our whole family loved. Yoshi’s expertise and kindness made it a seamless 10/10 experience!

“Stress-Free Family Exploration – Yoshi is the Best!”

Yoshi is an exceptional guide and made our two-day exploration of Tokyo the highlight of our trip. Traveling with two children, including an infant, can be a challenge, but Yoshi made the entire experience seamless and stress-free. He met us right at our hotel and navigated the complex subway system for us, which was a total lifesaver. He was incredibly patient and kind. He even helped hold our baby so we could take photos and truly soak in the sites. Yoshi took us to several stunning temples while providing deep insights into their history and significance, and we thoroughly enjoyed touring the Imperial Palace. He also guided us through great shopping areas for small gifts and helped us discover numerous delicious local food dishes. We felt like we were exploring the city with a friend rather than a guide. If you are visiting Tokyo with kids, we cannot recommend Yoshi highly enough!
