Private tour "My favorite Tokyo"
Joined 2016
Tokyo is simply magnificent. This is the definite metropolis that you can't know what really it is just through tour books. Tokyo is a place where the modern technology, and Japan's unique old tradition, myth coexist harmoniously. This tour is made mainly for the first comers who have few idea of what will be like traveling Japan.

About Tour Guide Mitsuru(mark) S.
KON-NICHI-WA (Hello) I’m Mitsuru (Mark) Sakai .
I was born in Hokkaido, the north part of Japan.
I moved to Seattle, USA when I was five and the name MARK was given by my classroom teacher then. It was also when I started to learn English, though it was a kid English, still I may using.
I came back to Japan when I was eleven and I experienced difficulties adjusting to new circumstances.
It was tough one.
Though, It forced me to notice the differences and similarities between the two countries.
Definitely these experiences became my precious back bone to be a tour guide still today.
My favorite subject is Japanese history especially regarding Shintoism, Buddhism and samurai-culture.
Also, since I studied architecture in university, I' m happy to introduce you our unique buildings and structures on the way.
However, my most favorite thing above all is to make your trip ever enjoyable.
I’d like to make you feel relaxed, safe and secured.
I wish I could see you someday soon..
Thank you.
Mitsuru Mark Sakai.
National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter.

(38 reviews)I am very pleased to see that you were satisfied with my tour. I was worried about the weather with the typhoon approaching, but I am relieved that we were able to complete the tour safely. How was the rest of your trip? I was concerned that the typhoon, which lingered near Japan for quite some time, might have affected your travel plans afterward
“Great morning in Tokyo”
Mark was a great tour guide for our party of 9 including 5 kids ages 10-17. He met us at our hotel and took us to the Fukagawa Fudo Buddhist Temple to see the Fire & Taiko Drum Ceremony. It was an incredible experience. We then visited Kiyosumi Garden and ended the morning at Fukagawa Edo Museum where we learned about housing during the Edo period when Samurai ruled. Mark kept the kids engaged while giving us an interesting tour. We would definitely hire Mark again!
