Are your kids into anime so much and find it hard to balance adult and kid tours in a day? Here is your answer. Anime Spot is not Akihabara anymore. There is a new place where the really anime fans are coming to which is Ikebukuro. For adults let's explore the Japanese temple and offer your prayers and for kids let's go to the huge animation store and amazing aquarium!

About Tour Guide Yoshie Y.
Hi, I’m Yoshie.
My hobby is traveling and I like to meet new people. Not only every part of Japan, I also traveled to many countries. Especially in Australia, I spent one year on a working holiday. I like to step into nature, and I also like to explore hidden gems in the town.
Japan has a long history of 2,000 years and has lived in a nature-oriented culture. As a local, I would like to share interesting Japanese culture with you. Join my tour, and let’s explore Japan's fascinating culture and beautiful sights together as a family!
I specialize in family-friendly tours, making sure that both parents and children have an enjoyable and memorable experience. As a mother, I know what kids love and enjoy in Japan. I want to show you and your family “Omotenashi”. This is Japanese hospitality. Be prepared for special little surprises for your children and yourselves. I want to show you the Japan that I know and love.

“Yoshie is the only guide you need in Tokyo”
We booked the Shinjuku tour with Yoshie and it was an amazing experience. She was very friendly, accommodating, and flexible. Yoshie gladly adjusted the tour to meet our requests. She went out of the way to take us to a location we needed to visit and adjusted the tour to accommodate the party's energy level. She was great at explaining the cultural and historical significance of the locations we visited. Yoshie was also very patient and happy to answer the many questions our group had, be it related to the tour or general questions about traveling within Japan. We created many great memories and saw amazing sites thanks to Yoshie. I confidently recommend her as your tour guide for any upcoming trips to Tokyo.
