We'll explore Akihabara, the best place to experience Japanese anime culture! Since there's so many shops, if you are looking for anything specific, let me know and I will take you to the place that has the best variety of the items you are looking for.
The best Maid Cafes are all in Akihabara! We can either grab a drink or enjoy an early lunch at one of Japan's most popular Maid Cafes.
We can go for more shopping for anime merch, or if you aren't looking for any anime merch in particular, another option we can do is go to the many game centers and enjoy arcade games, try the gatcha games or the capsule toy games, or try getting plushies from the claw games! Also, in some stores, they have retro games from the 80s or 90s, which is attracting a lot of game fans around the world!
If you didn't choose to have a meal at the Maid Cafe, we can grab lunch (ramen, sushi, or your request)

“So much fun! ”
Ayaka met us at our hotel perfectly on time and was immediately warm and engaging. Nothing was too difficult for her and we saw way more of Tokyo than we imagined we could see in one day. She was very knowledgeable about the cultural sites as well as some of the more obscure things we wanted to see, like the pigment store, skate park and an impromptu look at the Fender flagship store. She was patient and her English is exceptional. We had a really delicious lunch too and stopped for matcha when we needed a break. I couldn’t recommend her highly enough and will definitely ask her to guide us again when we come back. Yay Ayaka! Thank you so much.
“Best tour guide :)”
