Hello,
My name is Akira.
I am certified national guide interpreter.
I have been living in Tokyo for more than 30 years.
I love walking in the city with no particular plan finding trasures in the streets such as nice ramen noodle restaurants, cafes, funny billboards, and most of all, narrow alleys that remind me of good old days.
I will help you enjoying the days in the city fully and making your vist memorable one.
I am looking forward to seeing you soon.
“Tokyo Neighborhood Experience”
Akira did a great job taking us to local neighborhoods and parts of Tokyo that we wouldn’t have found on our own. We had a very nice day tour with him. We would recommend for anyone who wants to see more of Tokyo like a local.

Dear Karla, Thank you so much for the great review, which is a good year-end-present to conclude the year 2024. I am so glad you enjoyed the day with 100% local vibes, like I did. I am looking forward to another chance to explore my loving city together. See you next time! Sincerely, Akira
“Excellent experience!”
My family (3 young adult children and myself) spent our second day in Japan with Akira. It was a wonderful day, not only seeing and learning about some great spots, but also learning to navigate the city and clarifying some of the customs that we were worried about. We are 8 days into our trip now and every day the kids mention him. Our favorite spot of the day was Meiji Jingu. We highly recommend booking a tour with Akira, and we will definitely use him again the next time we are in Japan. Thanks for a great day, Akira!

Dear Andrea, Thank you so much for the great review. I had a feeling that I was guiding wonderful people and that it was going to be a fun day when Eric and Isaac came to me and say hi at the lobby. I am so happy that the feeling was right one and we all had a great time. You must be proud of your children. They are all great and beautiful human being. I’m looking forward to another chance to explore my living city together. Sincerely, Akira PS. I’m so glad that we agreed that the controversial last episode of “Attack on Titan” was great.
“100% worth it”
My husband and I highly recommend Akira. His English was flawless, he took us to places that were interesting to us (we provided general likes and dislikes ahead of time so he could provide recommendations), added some interesting commentary, and helped us find good food. He was knowledgeable, friendly, and really looked out for us to make our only day in Tokyo the best it could be.

Dear Nikki, Thank you so much for the great review. Also, thank you so much for the good sushi that we had, and thank you so much for the opportunity to discover joy of bird watching. I will take my binocular out from my closet to enjoy observing beautiful birds in gardens in my neighborhood this weekend. I’m looking forward to another chance to explore my loving city together. I hope you enjoy wonderful holidays. Sincerely, Akira
