“Amazing 3 days tours in Tokyo with Akira”
Akira was our (myself and my wife) private tour guide in Tokyo for 3 full days. He is a great tour guide, his english is excellent and very clear to understand. Akira took us to all the major tourist sites but also included special hidden places and local neighborhoods to get a feel of the Japanese lifestyle in Tokyo . Akira is very knowledgeable, friendly and easy going and we highly recommend him. Thank you again Akira

(299 reviews)Dear Elie, Thank you so much for the great review. I am so happy to know that you had great three days with me, like I did. I hope what I showed you during the tours, and what I said about my people and culture, will give you an idea of what Japan is like, and I hope they gave you good introduction for your rest of the days in the country. It is always my pleasure and joy to be a guide for wonderful people like you and beautiful Judy. I'm looking forward to another chance to explore my loving city together some day. Sincerely, Akira
“**Rating: 5 stars** - Highly recommended for families seeking a personal and immersive experience in Japan.”
Our family's first journey to Japan was transformed into an unforgettable experience, thanks to Akira's exceptional guidance. From the moment we set foot in the land of the rising sun, we were greeted with an array of **amazing fruits** that tantalized our taste buds, a testament to the dedication of Japan's farmers. A culinary highlight was undoubtedly the **Horse Mackerel Sashimi**—fresh, succulent, and expertly prepared, it provided a genuine taste of Japan's renowned seafood cuisine. Exploring the quaint and **beautiful small areas** where locals live, shop, and eat, we felt a warm embrace by the community, witnessing the authentic Japanese way of life. Above all, Akira's thoughtfulness shone through in his attentiveness to my mother and young son, ensuring their comfort and enjoyment every step of the way. His ability to accommodate our family's needs, from the youngest to the eldest, made our tour not just a trip but a treasure trove of memories. We are deeply grateful for Akira's hospitality and the rich cultural tapestry he helped us explore. Our hearts are full, and our minds are already dreaming of our next adventure in Japan.

(299 reviews)Dear Hugh, Thank you so much for the five stars review. I am so glad that you and your beautiful family were greeted with an array of "amazing fruits". I don't know who said that "you get what you give" but as working as private guide for 8 years, being with lots of people from different countries with different cultural background, I believe the saying is very true observing people like you and your beautiful family with love happy vibes. I witnessed the way you see the world with no strong preconceptions, the way you treat people (whom you know or strangers), and the way you behave with respect, brought you the "amazing fruits" of Japan. It made me smile remembering the moment your beautiful son enjoyed exchange with local grandma at the restaurant, your mom (with warm heart) fascinated by local fruits shop, and wonderful mom and dad enjoying full bloom of azalea. Thank you so much for having me and letting me be a part of your unforgettable experience. I am looking forward to another chance to explore my loving city together. Sincerely, Akira
“Fantastic Personal Tour of Tokyo ”
Akira provided an awesome tour of Tokyo!! We visited Yanaka, Sugamo and Shijuku where we observed the lifestyle of common people of Tokyo today. We had a delicious Teishoku (Japanese set meal) for lunch at a restaurant in very local atmosphere. A great day with Akira!!
