“Initial Japan tour in Tokyo with Nubuo as guide ”
Nubuo Or Konosan as he introduced himself met me at the hotel in excellent time and navigated us easily through the complex Tokyo subway system. He introduced systems useful for future personal excursions . He provided historical information with his private hard copy slide type notebook which was my requirement in choosing a guide . Overall we saw about 6-8 major places which were prechosen via Gowithguide communication system . Overall I really appreciated my first Tokyo experience with Konosan as my guide.

“Covered a lot of ground! ”
We had a good day! Saw many different neighborhoods, but it was super crowded - not his fault. He did best to keep us together despite the crowds and constant moving around. Eoudl have appreciated more history about japan. My only complaint.
Nobuo K.

How about an enjoyable walking in Tokyo?
There are lots of sightseeing spots in Tokyo. I will arrange a customized one-day tour based upon your requirements so that you could enjoy your stay in Tokyo. We can discuss and decide places to visit effectively for a limited amount of time. One example is shown here as follows, but I'm sure I will take you to some of my best selections so that you could enjoy both of traditional and modern culture. I can arrange an appropriate lunch restaurant based upon your requirement.

Tokyo,Now &Then
Tokyo is a modern metropolitan city built on an ancient Edo, where Tokugawa samurai government was settled. Even now we can find old relics of ancient Edo among truly modern Tokyo streets. Asakusa, Ueno and the Imperial Palace itself are some of the examples. Let’s explore Tokyo with me and find the soul of Japan.

Tokyo half day tour for 1st time visitor
Let's walk around Tokyo and make once in a lifetime memory. I made this tour for first time visitor to Tokyo to cover "Must see" spots in most effective way. I listed 9 most popular tourist spots in Tokyo for your convenience. All you should do is to select some locations from the list. (The number of locations you can visit in half day will depend on where they located ) I'll make an optimized route to go around these place and propose it to you!
