Hightlights of Tokyo in 1 day
Only have 1 day to stroll Tokyo? Let's join this tour! You can visit "must see" spots in Tokyo.
To start we visit Tsukiji fish market, the biggest Fish market. You can see busy market with lots of fresh seafood. You can also try foods you have never seen on street or at a restaurant. If you would like to try foods there, I recommend you to have small breakfast before you join the tour :)
After the fish market, we go to the Meiji Jingu shrine, one of the biggest shrine in Tokyo. If you are lucky, you might see traditional Japanese wedding there. After the shrine we stroll Omotesando and Harajyuku shopping area. We have lunch there or in Asakusa later.
In the afternoon, we visit Asakusa where Sensoji temple and Asakusa shrine are located. There are many shops called Nakamise so you can enjoy shopping and getting typical Japanese souvenirs. If you need more shopping after the tour, you can stay in Asakusa! (If we have enough time, we can go to Kappabashi district with many kitchen tools and fake food displays)
At the end of the tour, I will show you how to go back to your hotel or how to get to your next destination.

Tokyo Tour Reviews
Kaori was a great tour guide and a perfect way for my wife and I to start our vacation in Tokyo. She picked us up directly at our hotel which was absolutely worth it (and she dropped us off too). Once we got on our journey she showed us how to use the Tokyo Subway, and took us around to all of the sites mentioned in the tour (Tsukiji market, Meiji Shrine, etc.). Her vast knowledge of history combined with her friendly personality and perfect english made our tour very enjoyable. It also allowed us to get a great feeling for Tokyo and we were able to craft the rest of our trip after knowing how to get around, and what the different sites offered. One suggestion would be to walk around Omotesando which is a great shopping district, we would not have known about it without Kaori.

I was in Japan in August and booked with Kaori for 1 all day in Tokyo. She was very nice and helping us with getting the taxi and help my son with buying a toys in pokemon center. Her english was excellent. We have to shorten the tour, because my mother in-law was very tired because of the heat and her shoes was hurting her feet, but otherwise it was a great tour. Thank you Kaori for a great tour.

We only decided to book a tour guide at the very last minute , and Kaori was very prompt and helpful in her replies. After confirming our reservation, she went out of her way to accommodate our special request, which was to rent Yukata for the whole family and witness the Star Festival celebration which was on our first morning/afternoon in Tokyo. After finding out that there is no Yukata available for rent for our younger daughter, Kaori searched and found a shop that sells Yukata in her size, and offered us this option instead. All this was done prior to meeting us in the morning, and we are so happy she did all her preparation well in advance despite the SUPER short notice !! She also took us to have brunch at Tsukiji Fish Market and the kids loved everything (especially the Cod Fish and IKURA). During the day she patiently explained and guided us on the Tokyo Metro, which can be quite bewildering for first time tourists, and this really helped us a lot to navigate the subway on our own for the next 9 days. Overall, we are really satisfied with Kaori as our guide and would not hesitate to recommend her to our friends and families in the future. Arigato Gozaimasu Kaori :)
