About Tour Guide Leandra I.
I’ve called Japan home for seven years, embracing everything from Tokyo’s vibrant urban energy to the tranquillity of the countryside. Before becoming a guide, I explored Tokyo like a curious long-term traveller, uncovering unusual temples, quirky landmarks, hidden backstreets, local live music venues, rural mountain villages, and one-of-a-kind cultural gems. My passion lies in crafting immersive journeys that dive deep into Japan’s heart, sparking a sense of wonder and escape that makes travellers feel worlds away from home.
I’m excited to guide you through the Tokyo labyrinth. This city is endlessly fascinating—so layered and dynamic that even with a lifetime here, you’d only scratch the surface. I’ll show you how to navigate it like a local, as mastering the transport system isn’t as tricky as it seems, and I’ll help you gain the confidence to explore Tokyo on your own while we focus on the city’s hidden treasures.
Together, we can visit parts of Tokyo most travellers overlook—the nostalgic charm of the Shitamachi, the hustle of salaryman districts, the neon-lit buzz of cyber Tokyo, and tranquil local power spots. Let’s discover the city’s hidden depths and create memories that will last a lifetime!

“One day tour of Tokyo”
We had an excellent day thanks to Leandra. She is a brilliant guide, having come up with an itinerary that met our requirements in full. We experienced the culture and sights of the city and made great use of the inexpensive public transport train system. Nothing was too much trouble, Leandra was flexible in adapting the day to our needs, taking good care of us. One of the highlights for us was a wonderful lunch in a sushi restaurant. The food was amazing and so was the price, it was such a reasonable cost. We were also very lucky to see a traditional wedding taking place. We enjoyed our day so much, thank you Leandra for being such good company. Tokyo exceeded our expectations.

She was also super patient as we were a large group (8). Her deep understanding of the city’s culture and history, along with her thoughtful recommendations, truly enhanced our experience. We felt so welcomed and well taken care of. Highly recommend Leandra to anyone visiting Tokyo!

“Unforgettable first night in Tokyo”
I had an incredible experience on my first night in Tokyo thanks to Leandra. She was not only knowledgeable and friendly, but also went above and beyond, she discovered there was a jazz festival happening in Ikebukuro the same night and offered to take me there at no extra cost. It was an unexpected bonus and truly made the night unforgettable. She also helped me get acquainted with the train system and even helped me get a new battery for my camera, which I appreciated so much. The jazz bar we visited had the best live jazz I’ve ever experienced, an intimate and vibrant venue with some truly amazing musicians and great drinks. We ended the evening with some of the most delicious sushi I’ve ever had!! It was the perfect blend of music, culture, and cuisine. Highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to experience a different and unforgettable side of Tokyo. Thank you for making my first night in Tokyo so special!!
