The first maid cafe was started in Akihabara.

Nowadays, there are around 200 maid cafes alone in Akihabara.


Maids will welcome guests of all genders, generations, and nationalities, but some have difficulties in English communication.

No problem. I can help you talk to them!

The good news is that I was a manager at one of the largest maid cafe chains and led 40 maids.


Other Otaku activities are also included in the tour.

Hopefully, all anime, pop idol, and gadget Otaku can enjoy the tour!

Tour of Tokyo

Melody, was an absolute joy to have as a guide. He accommodated our every request even extend our guided tour at the last minute. If you are looking for an intelligent and experienced speaker don’t go any further. Your challenge if you dare, is to go to more places we went in one day. Here is a list of sites we visited: • Harajuku (Meiji shrine, Takeshita street) • Shibuya (Shibuya cross, loyal dog Hachiko) • Asakusa (Nakamise street, Sensoji temple, izakaya, Sumida river) • Oshiage (Skytree and Solamachi mall) • Akihabara (Anime town) • Ginza (Art aquarium, ramen) Thank you Melody

Rick, thank you very much for your heartwarming review. Yes, we packed in many spots at your request, since you only had one day in Tokyo. We walked more than 8 miles in a single day ; ) I hope you were able to recover the next morning. We had so many interesting conversations and shared lots of laughs. I hope the rest of your travels in Japan—and in other countries as well—will be wonderful. Hope to see you again someday! Arigato Gozaimasu.

perfect day

I had an absolutely amazing day with my tour guide, Melody, in Tokyo. He took me to the famous fish market where we had incredible sushi, followed by some of the best, most authentic ramen I’ve ever had. He also showed me a maid café and many other unique spots around the city that I never would have found on my own. What really made the experience special was how Melody treated me like family. From start to finish, I enjoyed every single minute of the day—nothing felt rushed, and everything felt personal and thoughtful. You truly can’t beat that kind of hospitality. I highly recommend Melody to anyone looking for a tour guide in Tokyo. If you want an authentic, memorable experience with someone who genuinely cares about your time, he’s the one.

Rayan, thank you so much again for your incredibly kind and heartfelt review! I’m truly happy to hear that we had such an amazing time in Tokyo and that you enjoyed the fish market sushi, authentic ramen, and unique spots like the maid cafe. It means a lot to me that you felt comfortable and welcomed, and that the tour felt personal and relaxing—this is exactly what I aim to provide. Spending the days together and sharing Tokyo with you was a real pleasure, and your words about being treated like family genuinely touched me. Yes, we are family! Thank you again for choosing me as your guide despite your very busy schedule. I truly appreciate it. I hope to see you again someday, either in Tokyo or elsewhere in Japan!
