“7 hour Hidden Pop-Culture and Offbeat Spots”
As described, Jaime met my wife and I and our two kids (18 and 21) at our hotel in Tokyo and was an incredible guide for the entire day. Jaime has a very unique offering with this tour as it covers areas not popular with tourists and it caters great to our kids interests. Jaime was super accommodating and did a great job of engaging with our kids to learn their preferences and cater tour accordingly. Happy kids (yes still our grown "Kids") makes happy parents. Lunch was at the Ikebukuro NIKU Gekijo and it was excellent. Complements to Jaime for having great taste in food. Those picky eaters in our group gave it a thumbs up! My wife and I enjoyed the Japanese clothing brands and even went back later in the week to make some purchases. Kids found all sorts of Anime and Action Figures. If you're in Tokyo and need to find places off the beaten path, this is the tour for you. I have never used a guide before but will from now on. Jaime made my day stress free and efficient by not having to plan the day in a place that we don't know and having to get lost. Domo Arigato Jaime!

“Jaime is an awesome guide!”
Jaime is a rare combination of professionalism and playfulness. His knowledge on Tokyo history, art, architecture, food, and Japanese culture seemed boundless. Jaime met us at our hotel on our 1st day in Tokyo. We had a previously conceived rough itinerary...and Jaime filled in gaps with other sights. We had a great time!! He is a charismatic and thoughtful person....and he's got s great sense of style as well.

“Tokyo Highlights Tour”
This tour with Jaime was absolutely wonderful. Coming to Japan was my trip of a lifetime, but I was still quite nervous because my Japanese still isn't great and I'm not usually the biggest fan of big crowds. Jaime was extremely patient with me and helped me warm up to the big city atmosphere that Tokyo offers. Coming from a much smaller city where I usually drive myself everywhere, taking the train and and navigating on foot for long periods of time took some getting used to. This tour with Jaime was a great training session (lol), and helped me build confidence to take on Tokyo on my own for the rest of my trip. If you want a guide that knows some of the best spots in the city and can customize the tour according to your interests, Jaime's your person! (And if you're looking for some great matcha, Jaime's the one you need to pick x2!!)
