Tokyo Private Tours & Local Tour Guides

“Tokyo Highlights ”

Melody was absolutely amazing and made our day in Tokyo one of the highlights of our trip. We were a group of seven, including two kids, and we walked over 25,000 steps exploring the city. Despite the long day, Melody never lost his energy or enthusiasm. He truly went above and beyond for our group and even stayed past our scheduled nine-hour tour to make sure we had the experience we wanted. He was knowledgeable, patient, friendly, and genuinely cared about making our day special. I can’t recommend Melody highly enough. If you’re coming to Tokyo and looking for a tour guide, I would strongly recommend booking with Melody. We would absolutely choose him again on our next trip to Tokyo!

“Personal, helpful and accommodating”

Gulay was a great guide for our first visit to Tokyo. She listened to what we wanted to see and do and took us on a great intro tour of Tokyo. She was very helpful with information and assisting us to get our Shinkensen tickets as well. Highly recommend to anyone wishing for a private, personalised tour!

“Exceptional, educational, fulfilling, cultural experience all in one day tour of Tokyo!”

We were so very fortunate to get to spend a very full day with Toshihiro-San as he shared his extensive knowledge of Japan, and of Tokyo in particular! He is also very aware of tour guests background and cultural differences as he has also traveled well internationally himself. Our focus was on the eastern side of the city in a complete exposure of the most important sights the city has to offer. We learned about the cultural history from his deep knowledge and understanding as a long time resident and guide. Toshihiro-San is very dedicated to making sure his guests are comfortable, able to move as fast or as relaxed as they wish. He is very patient, and good at adjusting the activity, and the plan based on what is important to his tour guests. From the history, the important temples, special sights that are central to understanding and learning about life in Tokyo, or just the best lunch spot or place to sit and rest, Toshihiro-San is ready to make the day very enjoyable and memorable. We could not have asked for a better first day introduction to Tokyo! Thank you Toshihiro-San for a great day visit for making us so comfortable, and for having been such a kind gentlemen to now call a friend. We will look forward to a return visit with you as our expert guide to life in Tokyo and Japan. You have accomplished your goal for us to make our trip much more trouble free while enjoying a cultural exposure and teaching us how to move around using the subway system. Until next time we visit, very best to you, we wish you all the best!

Thank you for the brilliant tour review, Fred-san and Irma-san. I think that you are a really fortunate people because it was not raining during the tour in spite of bad weather forecast. Before the tour, you informed me of a lot of information on your background and interests. I could make an appropriate tour plan easily. You have a good sense of humor. I would like to say one objection on your comments. When we met at your hotel first in the morning, I said “Oh, you look like much younger than your age”. And you said “Oh, I found that this tour guide is a liar”. But it was a my honest feeling. You have traveled various countries in the world. Conversation with you were interesting and fruitful for me. You quickly understood the uniqueness of Japanese culture and life style. It was fun for me to explain features of Japan as a guide. You created an amiable atmosphere as if I introduced Tokyo to my friends. I think that I am lucky. Thank you very much again. I am really relieved as you gave me wonderful comments about the tour. I appreciate your attitude to try to experience Japanese local life style including lunch. After you stay at Tokyo for several days, you will visit many ports in Japan. I am sure that you will enjoy the rest of days in various cities after you are more familiar with Japanese life. Have a nice trip!
