About Tour Guide Akira N.

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.

“Best way to get a head start”

We took a customised tour with Akira, had a couple of 'must haves' on the list and the rest he built a full day exploring parts of Tokyo. Worth every one of his five stars he was able to teach us culture, customs and a little language. Best of all he had the most awesome spot for lunch, won't forget that for a very long time. Highly recommend spending a day or two with Akira to guide and look after you.

“Unforgettable”

Very knowledgeable, polite and his English is great. Really helped me and my girlfriend’s first international travel feel less intimidating and welcoming.

“Great guide four our first trip to Japan!!”

Akira was a very good decision as a guide for our family's first full day, first trip to Japan! He was a life saver showing us how to use the transportation system and understanding Tokyo's complex environment. The trip was fully customizable and he showed us areas of traditional Japanese living to modern day Japan. He has great knowledge of Japan and its history, he also worked with our slow pace for the entire day. He took us to a very delicious non-tourist Japanese restaurant and the entire family enjoyed it, even with our picky eaters. Again, Akira provided a professional, friendly and fun trip that kick started the rest of our trip to Japan. I highly recommend his guidance for anyone traveling to Japan, for the first time or any time. Thank you Akira and Ryan says "King Cesar"!!! lol

Dear Marcello, Thank you so much for the wonderful review. It was so much fun to be a guide for the Gonzalez family’s first Japan trip in a jolly, relaxed, happy family atmosphere. I’m so glad we have something in common, we believe spirits, we love coffee, and we love variety of Tokusatsu (Thank you for reminded me of King Caesar. I haven heard that name for menu years…!). Thank you so much for treated me like the way do to your friendly neighbor, not like just a guide you hired. I had a wonderful time as much as you did. I am looking for another chance to explore the TokyoI love together. Sincerely, Akira
