About Tour Guide Grant A.
Important note: I am currently not able to take new customers after the end of March, 2026.
My name is Grant, and I’ve spent over a decade living and exploring Japan. Originally from Omaha, Nebraska, I first came to Japan as a high school exchange student in Inuyama, a historic castle town in Aichi. My love for Japan began early—sparked by childhood games like Pokémon that were released in Japanese before English. That early curiosity grew into a lifelong passion for Japanese language, culture, and history.
I hold an N2 on the Japanese Language Proficiency Test, a degree in Asian Studies from a Tokyo university, and I graduated from the Japan Visual Media Translation Academy. I’ve visited all 47 prefectures and explored a wide range of historical sites, shrines, and castles throughout the country. My background in Japanese history helps me provide context that brings depth and meaning to the places we visit—whether it's understanding a centuries-old temple in Kyoto, the story behind a castle ruin, or uncovering the historical layers of a Tokyo neighborhood.
If you’re planning to explore Tokyo, here are some tour options to consider:
One day in Tokyo? The Ginza Line Tour offers a great introduction to the city’s highlights.
Two days? Pair the East Tokyo Tour and West Tokyo Tour to get a well-rounded experience.
Interested in anime? The Anime Tour is flexible and can be tailored to match your specific interests.
For those looking to go beyond the city, I also offer day trips to Nikko, Kamakura, and other nearby destinations.
Full-Day Tour: 40,000 yen (8 hours)
Full-Day Tour Outside of Tokyo: 40,000 yen + transportation
Feel free to get in touch to plan a tour that fits your interests and travel plans.

“Thank you so much for an amazing day!”
From the moment he met us in the lobby, my children were at ease. His competence and love for all things Japan shone through the entire day. His knowledge of Japanese history was a special treat. It’s one thing to visit this or that site, but a concise, entertaining account of the historical context adds a depth that makes the experience far more rewarding. In addition to showing us significant sites, he taught us how to navigate public transportation on our own and even introduced me to the amazing world of Japanese whisky! I’m already trying to gather a posse of friends to return to Japan for some serious whisky touring - hopefully with Grant as our guide again. Thank you!

“Guided tour of East Tokyo”
A family of five (kids aged 7, 11 and 15) had an excellent day being guided around East Tokyo by Grant. Grant was very flexible in adjusting the tour to meet our expectations and extremely knowledgeable. Highly recommend.

Shopping in Ginza for Tokyoite use in their daily lives & Handmade chopsticks experience
The biggest advantage of having me as your private guide is that I can simulate life as if I were a local. For example, we can show you the tools and fashions that Japanese people use in their daily lives. You will be captivated by the delicate and hospitable lineup of Japanese products. And don't worry about getting lost in the complex train lines; you can explore Tokyo like a local, using the subway and other means.
