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.

“Personal Tokyo tour ”
I had an incredible experience touring Tokyo with Akira. From start to finish, he was professional, knowledgeable, and went above and beyond to make sure I had an unforgettable time in the city. He tailored the day to my interests, whether it was exploring hidden gems, trying authentic local food, or diving into the cultural side of Tokyo. His knowledge of the city’s history and neighborhoods made the whole experience feel like hanging out with a local friend who really knows their stuff. How organized and thoughtful he was — never rushed, always flexible, and full of great recommendations even after the tour ended. If you’re looking for someone to truly elevate your time in Tokyo, I can’t recommend him enough. Worth every yen!

Dear Zachary, Thank you so much for the great review. I am so glad that you enjoyed the tour just like I did. It was so much fun to guide wonderful young people like you and Rob. Thank you so much for a chance to realize that there was a time I was at your age enjoying wandering Shibuya and Shimokita, browsing thrift shops, vinyl shops, having delicious ramen in alleyway restaurant. I have to confess that I thought you were "tough guy" kind of person when we met at the lobby, but I found I was TOTALLY WRONG soon after we start walking and exchanging conversation on this and that. I found you and Rob are modest, generous, and kind gentlemen who always pay respect to locals and their culture. I hope you'll enjoy this Japan trip fully and the trip will be memorable enough to make you come back to this country again. I am looking forward to another chance to explore my loving city together. See you next time! Akira

“Excellent Tour ”
We had an excellent tour with Mr Akira. He was knowledgeable and the customized itinerary perfectly matched our interests. We were traveling with our 20+ daughter who is into fashion and Mr Akira was able to show her some great spots so much so that two days later she went again. Akira-san, doumo arigatou gozaimasu

Sincerely, Akira

Akira was warm, welcoming, and intentional. This was our first day in Japan and his tour helped us acclimate to the transit system and local culture. His English was excellent and easy to understand. Great food and great sites. I highly recommend you book your next tour with Akira.
