Tour Important Information

It's a private tour only for you! That means you can change the itinerary freely & flexibly.

We'll use public transportation and walk a lot, so be sure to wear comfortable shoes.

I recommend you to have some Japanese cash. International credit cards are unavailable at ticket machines for trains and subways and at some small local shops.

If you are going to enjoy shopping, it would be better to take your passport with you because you can get tax-free by showing your passport under certain conditions.


[What to expect]

Tokyo is an exciting city with lots of nice spots. But it would be a bit difficult for first-time visitors to go to several places using the convenient but very complicated transportation system. You can count on me! I'll take you destinations efficiently while giving you information about each spot's background, history and Japanese culture, customs, traits, religions, art, everyday life and so on. Let's enjoy exploring Tokyo together!

About Tour Guide Jolly S.

Hello! I'm Jolly, government-licensed guide with over 10-year experience of guiding foreign guests from around 40 countries. Are you looking for a friendly and knowledgable guide to talk with a lot? Are you interested in history and clues to understand Japanese culture? If you say "yes", why don't you join my tour?

Tokyo is a wonderful city having various aspects. With its 400-year history, Tokyo has a lot of traditional spots like splendid Buddhist temples and serene Shinto shrines. You can also find beautiful traditional Japanese gardens. On the other hand, Tokyo never stops changing. Every year new spots emerge and trend-conscious people enjoy visiting sophisticated shopping districts. Various types of amusement are available from digital art museums to cat cafes. And another very important point is Tokyo is full of delicious food!

I love Tokyo and I'd be happy if I could help to make your stay in Tokyo more enjoyable. I'll take you various spots including both traditional and modern ones according to your requests. I really like to talk with my guests about various topics like Japanese culture, religions, history, art, food, everyday life of Japanese etc...

I'm looking forward to seeing and guiding YOU soon!

A Terrific Tokyo Two-Day Tour with Jolly

Several months before our trip to Japan in March, 2025, my wife and I scheduled a two-day tour of Tokyo highlights by mass transportation with Jolly. She was extraordinarily responsive to my inquiries and sent us a proposed itinerary for our consideration and comment, offering to make any changes we desired (the plans were so well curated that we never needed to make any modifications or suggestions for other or different venues to explore). Jolly was punctual in meeting us at our hotel both days and organized our tours in a sensible manner to make the use of the Tokyo metro as efficient as possible. She is remarkably knowledgeable as to the sights we visited and provided interesting information in English we could clearly understand (unless Kon'nichiwa and Arigato constitute fluency, my Japanese is woefully deficient). Jolly ushered us through the subways effectively, always sure to let us know the number of stations on the train until our next stop so we would not inadvertently stray. Most important, though, Jolly is a lovely and warm person and we greatly enjoyed spending time with her, talking about her family, daily life, favorite foods, and interests. My wife and I are grateful and consider ourselves incredibly fortunate that we chose to tour Tokyo with Jolly. I am confident that you will as well.

You were all very kind, polite and intelligent, and I myself quite enjoyed talking with you about various topics deeply. I cannot help smiling whenever I see a picture with you at the history museum, remembering joyful memories. Again thank you very much for choosing me as your guide and sharing your precious time with me. Take care and stay happy, healthy and charming! Arigato!!

Wow! Thank you so much for your warm review!! I really appreciate it. You’re so kind and I love your fun-loving attitude, always looking at the bright side. I was so glad you liked that small history museum. I was so happy to be able to guide such a wonderful lady. Again thank you so much for sharing your precious time with me!

Perfect for 1st time visitors!

Jolly was an exceptional guide! She is warm, friendly, informative and very helpful. She allowed us to customize our itinerary like going to a cat cafe and shop at different shops. We never felt rushed or unorganized. She knows Japan, and made us feel welcome while still being very professional. You are in good hands with Jolly! Highly recommend.

Thank you so much for your heartfelt review! I felt sorry about my mistake on the train ticket although you kindly mentioned you’d never felt unorganized. You’re super kind and tolerant. I feel very happy to hear you seem satisfied with my tour. I myself quite enjoyed experience with you like a kind of a digital zoo museum and making a customized cute stamp at Harajuku! Again thank you for sharing your precious time with me. I wish you and your family a happy & wonderful new year!!
