Backstreet walk and eat tour after a full day tour

I previously rated my experience but it deserves another mention. The weather in Tokyo was terrible so Tim suggested we wait 24 hrs and combine our tours. After a full day my wife was tired but Tim was still excited to show me the backstreets of Tokyo. After a brief rest the two of us headed out to his favorite bars and he really showed me a great time. I had my first eel, sake, and shaved fish on bamboo shoots and it was delicious. We wandered through the neon lights and backstreets of Tokyo as Tim described the culture and took me places I probably would have missed on my own. It was a fascinating look beyond the typical tourist areas as we saw hundreds of small, intimate bars and gathering places with no more than 5-6 seats. I felt privileged to be able to experience this and I can’t say enough about Tim’s knowledge and experience. Since we both spoke English as our native language he was able to explain everything in great detail. It was truly a memorable night and at the end we swapped coins to remember our journey. I think Tim went above and beyond what I would have expected from a regular guide.

Amazing guide

Speaks good English, know the town well with many uncrowned space. Great photographer

Great Day With Haruo

We had a wonderful day with Haruo in Tokyo! He was incredibly patient and flexible, especially when we had to change our original plans due to the rain. He was very open and eager to learn more about our culture, and at the same time, we could ask him anything about Japanese traditions, culture, and daily life. It was a truly enriching experience — thank you, Haruo! He’s not only the best tour guide, but also the ultimate videographer when it comes to making you look like a celebrity while crossing Shibuya Crossing!

Haruo T.

I appreciate your kind and heartwarming words. I had a great time with the tourists who were so interested in our culture and history. Especially the questions you asked me were so interesting that they induced more deep and profound explanations. Also thank you your patience and cooperation for bad weather and crowdedness. At the end of the tour I felt like strolling around Tokyo with my friends. Take care and keep in touch.
