About Tour Guide Leandra I.
I’ve called Japan home for seven years, embracing everything from Tokyo’s vibrant urban energy to the tranquillity of the countryside. Before becoming a guide, I explored Tokyo like a curious long-term traveller, uncovering unusual temples, quirky landmarks, hidden backstreets, local live music venues, rural mountain villages, and one-of-a-kind cultural gems. My passion lies in crafting immersive journeys that dive deep into Japan’s heart, sparking a sense of wonder and escape that makes travellers feel worlds away from home.
I’m excited to guide you through the Tokyo labyrinth. This city is endlessly fascinating—so layered and dynamic that even with a lifetime here, you’d only scratch the surface. I’ll show you how to navigate it like a local, as mastering the transport system isn’t as tricky as it seems, and I’ll help you gain the confidence to explore Tokyo on your own while we focus on the city’s hidden treasures.
Together, we can visit parts of Tokyo most travellers overlook—the nostalgic charm of the Shitamachi, the hustle of salaryman districts, the neon-lit buzz of cyber Tokyo, and tranquil local power spots. Let’s discover the city’s hidden depths and create memories that will last a lifetime!

“Fantastic guide! ”
I'm a travel advisor and I arranged with Leandra to guide my clients for 3 days in Tokyo. Leandra was amazing with communication both with me and with my clients on the ground. We all stayed in touch via WhatsApp, with me hovering in the background if needed. My clients said, "Thank you so much! We had such a wonderful time with you and exploring Tokyo. We will be back and contact you for sure."

“Tokyo Adventures ”
Lea was amazing. She checked in about my kids interests & found lots of wonderful places to shop and have fun. She explained the travel system & helped us get our fast train tickets for all our trips. We had delicious ramen & Gyoza for lunch. She went above & beyond messaging me more info about our travels over the next few days. My kids thought she was super cool & after a long day of travel the day before that was a game changer.
