Half Day Tour in Tokyo

We had such a wonderful experience on our Tokyo half-day tour with Shin as our guide. He was incredibly professional, patient, and had such a kind spirit that made the entire tour enjoyable for our group. We especially loved his history lessons and the way he explained the significance behind the different shrines and temples we visited. His humor and storytelling kept the tour engaging and fun throughout the day. Shin was also very patient with our group, especially whenever we wanted to stop and take pictures. He never rushed us and made sure everyone was comfortable and enjoying the experience. One of the highlights was being introduced to local cuisine and getting to experience a more authentic, local side of Tokyo. Overall, Shin was an amazing host and guide, and we would highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Tokyo!

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
