Mondays, Tuesdays, and Saturdays are not available for tours as I am working part-time on those days.
Please do not message me about a driver; my tours focus on the Tokyo subway and rail-accessible locations.

“8hour Layover tour”
I had a 14 hour layover at Haneda and booked an 8 hour day tour with Grant. He is a fantastic guide, friendly, fun and very knowledgeable. No matter if it’s about Japanese history or a random train passing by, be assured he will be able to provide you with additional information. Grant navigates the public transport system like a pro making sure you won’t waste any of your precious time. He accommodated any wishes I had and basically fully customised the tour to my needs. It was a great day and surely there would be no way for myself to even see and experience half as much on my own, money well spent!
“Deep knowledge”
Grant is very knowledgeable of his tour materials and very friendly and kind. He speaks a bit softly, and if you use his services in large groups, you may need to take charge of not losing anyone as he walks fast.
“Great private tour with a local”
The Ginza line tour was a great introduction to the Tokyo metro line. In our first day in Tokyo, Grant showed us around Tokyo using Ginza subway line.He adjusted the itinerary per our request. He showed us how his favorite food spots and stores. We visited many attractions including shopping in Shibuya. If you want a tour that felt like having a friend showing you around town, this is it!
