About Tour Guide Ai M.

Hello! Thank you so much for your interest in having me as your tour guide.


I have guided over 200 tourists for the past years, as a guide of the bar hopping tours, hidden gems tours, and private tours. "Tokyo Hidden Gems", a community I made has over 400 members.


I have been fortunate enough to have opportunities to visit 33 out of 47 prefectures in Japan since I was a child, thanks to my parents who are passionate travelers, which has raised my interests in traveling and let me work in the tourism industry after graduation. I have experiences of working at a stylish hostel, and at the largest travel agency in Japan.


As one of the young tour guides, I can show you not only historical spots but also trendy spots based on the subculture of ordinary young Japanese people.


I love art, design, fashion, vintage clothing, taking photos with my film camera, and coffee.

If you are looking for someone who knows well about good vintage clothing stores/ cozy cafes, or interested in traveling throughout Japan, please feel free to let me know!

Tokyo Part 2

After a great first evening trip with Ai, she excelled again on Day 2 with a full day tour across some highlights of Tokyo, with the flexibility to change things at a moment’s notice. One of the best tours we’ve ever had. Thank you again. GoWithGuide = GoWithAi

A great first day in Shinjuku.

As first time visitors to Japan, planning a trip can be a bit daunting. In planning the trip, I was impressed by previous reviews for Ai so asked if she was available to offer an introduction to Shinjuku on our first day; something that would suit a family of four, from 15, 19 to 50’s. Ai delivered a fantastic tour for a few hours around Shinjuku. She kept things interesting for all of us and showed us places and bars/restaurants that we’d never have found on our own. A superb start to our trip. Thank you Ai.

Thank you for your wonderful review! I'm delighted to hear that you enjoyed your first day in Shinjuku with me. It was a pleasure showing your family around and introducing you to some hidden gems. Your kind words motivate me to continue providing engaging and memorable tours. Thank you for choosing me as your guide! Warm regards, Ai

Shinjuku, Harajuku, Shibuya highlights Tokyo tour!

After traveling In Tokyo Japan and all around Thailand with a number of different Guides with My wife and I and our 2 kids ages 12 and 15 we have decided that our most memorable tour was with Ai. She was very flexible and met us in the lobby of our hotel to start our tour. Before we headed out for the day she asked us if there were any areas of interest or stops other than the ones we had already planned with her. During the day she was able to answer all of questions and was very knowledgable of the places we toured. With Ai 's help were also able to get quite a bit of family pictures. We had also picked out a popular lunch spot for sushi in which she booked a reservation for that we were unaware that a reservation would be necessary. The waiting time was very long when we arrived but we were able to walk right in to our table. Our family also enjoyed the snake cafe, Senso ji Temple , shopping ,government building with views and experiencing the train system with her knowledge of the routes and ticketing process. Just cant say enough about her pleasant personality it was a tour of a lifetime that I and my Family will never forget. Sincerely, The Statham family

Thank you for your heartwarming review! It was a pleasure guiding you through Tokyo and I'm thrilled that you enjoyed the tour. Your kind words about my assistance and knowledge mean a lot to me. I'm glad the sushi reservation and our time at Senso-ji Temple and on the trains were memorable! Your feedback motivates me to provide the best experiences for my guests going foward. Thank you again for choosing me as your guide! Warm regards, Ai

Best recommended tour for the first-time visitor to Tokyo. Tokyo is a unique city with various traditional and contemporary attractions. Let’s create your personalized time in Tokyo by discussing the places you want to visit. You should plan a tour of different sites, such as Kamakura and Hakone, along with my other plan. I am based in Tokyo, but I would happily arrange your tour.
