Why not go for drinking with me?!


Golden Gai is the biggest bar-hopping area in Japan. There are about 300 bars in the area. However, it is often hard for beginners to tell which one to enter.


No worries! As a local bar hopping master, I will take you to the best shops.

Moreover, I can talk to you like your old friend. Let's have a great chat and make the night unforgettable!

Reviews

Melody is an excellent guide.

Very pleased with Melody as my guide. He has great knowledge of Tokyo, it's history and culture. He is also a very good person. I highly recommend him.

Fabulous start to our Tokyo adventure

Melody Suzuki was an excellent guide, and showing us around Tokyo on our very first day with the best thing we did. We felt safe and relaxed walking around, navigating the trains and finding the best places to eat. He was an absolute hit with our 21 year old daughter sharing an interest in anime and visiting Electric Town! I would recommend to anyone visiting Tokyo to do this city tour on their first day.. made the next 5 days easy. Thank you so much Melody .. sayonara, until our return.

Gabby, thank you for the excellent review! I’m glad being able to navigate you on the first day of Tokyo. We walked around many spots and had such a fun time! Yes, Electric town Akihabara part was especially impressive. Great to see you and all of your family..arigato and sayonara. See you next time!

Tokyo with teens

I was traveling with three teenagers and wanted our trip to Tokyo to showcase the very best of what the city has to offer. We booked Melody twice during our stay, and even before we arrived, he shared plenty of helpful suggestions and tailored the itinerary specifically to our interests. His recommendations were spot-on, and his attention to detail made the experience truly special. As a guide, Melody was incredibly considerate and fantastic with the teens — they absolutely loved him and couldn’t wait to see him again after the first day. I can’t recommend Melody highly enough. Not only did he give us an amazing introduction to Tokyo, but he was also remarkably patient and flexible when the teens wanted to adjust the plans mid-tour. It was clear that he genuinely wanted us to have the best possible time. You won’t find a better guide than Melody. Highly recommended!

Lill, thank you for the heartfelt comment. Your kids are amazing and I was the other teenager there lol. We really enjoyed every moment from shopping mall, Gundam, ramen, VR, anitouch, Ninja cafe, FUGLEN, temple, maid cafe, cuspule toy, arcade to teamLab! It's the greatest honor to be a part of your precious memory in Tokyo and already miss you a lot. Looking forward to meeting you all again someday. Take care!
