I am looking forward to seeing you soon.

“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

“Perfect Way to start our trip”
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.

“Perfect Day with Akira”
We had a fantastic experience with our tour guide, Akira, on our first day in Tokyo! He was punctual and professional, setting a perfect tone for the day. His deep knowledge of the city’s history, culture, and neighborhoods gave us such a rich and meaningful introduction to Tokyo. What truly stood out was how personable and engaging Akira was — it felt like we were exploring the city with a local friend. He was thoughtful, flexible, and made sure the tour suited our family’s interests and pace. Akira showed us some of the more local neighborhoods of Tokyo and we appreciated seeing how locals live away from the touristy areas. It was the perfect way to start our time in Japan, and we’re so grateful to have had Akira as our guide. Highly recommend!

Dear Melinda, Thank you so much for the great review. I am so glad that you felt that the tour made a good introduction of Tokyo. And also, I am so glad that you felt you were exploring the city with a local friend because that is exactly what I am always hoping for. I hope you got the idea of what it is like to be a local in the city, through walking in the neighborhoods, observing locals in the streets (in the subways), and exchanging with locals for the rest of your Japan trip. It was so much fun and interesting experience to guide nice people like you, Jeffery, and your wonderful two sons, Clay and Ryan. I can easily predict that you will have a great time in Japan because this country love jolly, thoughtful, and respectful people with happy vibes like Kollingers. I am looking forward to another chance to explore my loving city together. Sincerely, Akira
