Tokyo Private Tours & Local Tour Guides

“Second Tour as Good as the First!”

With Tokyo being so large and diverse we decided to partner with Melody for a second day. After being overwhelmed with his knowledge and enthusiasm the first tour, I was looking forward to another day of his guidance and wisdom to take us through Tokyo. Once again Melody did not disappoint, if anything he overdelivered. The tempo of the second day was a bit more modest. Rather than run from point to point, we traveled at a modest pace, with Melody always inquiring what we would like to do and see. First up was the Tokyo Government Building, with a 360 degree view of the city from the 45th floor. A must to do, especially if you play the piano (You'll understand if you go). Next was shopping in the Daikanyama neighborhood, with a tour of the Tsutaya Books, a must see. Then Melody took us to the most incredible lacqerware store, Yamada Heiando, an absolutely have to go to if you are looking for elegant gifts. Afterwards we shared a lunch at a restaurant that was clearly known only by locals, excellent and ridiculously inexpensive. From there Melody took us to a museum in a department store that was a goldfish exhibit! Who knew? But Melody did and it was a sight to see. A little more walking and shopping and sadly our day was over. What can I say? Melody is the ultimate in tour guides: knowledgeable, passionate about making your day extra special, and just a wonderful person. Don't tell Melody this, but if he charged double his services would still be a steal. So put on your bank robber mask and steal Melody for the day. It will be the best decision you make for all of your Japan trip.

“Shusaku Fabulous Tour!”

Shusaku was the perfect host! He made our night so much fun. What a great way to sample Tokyo's night life with a local.
