About Tour Guide Leandra I.

I’ve called Japan home for nine years, embracing everything from Tokyo’s vibrant urban energy to the tranquillity of the countryside. Before becoming a guide, I explored Tokyo like a curious long-term traveler, uncovering unusual temples, quirky landmarks, hidden backstreets, local live music venues, rural mountain villages, and one-of-a-kind cultural gems. My passion lies in crafting immersive journeys that dive deep into Japan’s heart, sparking a sense of wonder and escape that makes travelers feel worlds away from home.


I’m excited to guide you through the Tokyo labyrinth. This city is endlessly fascinating—so layered and dynamic that even with a lifetime here, you’d only scratch the surface. I’ll show you how to navigate it like a local, as mastering the transport system isn’t as tricky as it seems, and I’ll help you gain the confidence to explore Tokyo on your own while we focus on the city’s hidden treasures.


Together, we can visit parts of Tokyo most travelers overlook—the nostalgic charm of the Shitamachi, the hustle of salaryman districts, the neon-lit buzz of cyber Tokyo, and tranquil local power spots. Let’s discover the city’s hidden depths and create memories that will last a lifetime!

“A great day with Leandra!”

We had a great day with Leandra, our second day in Tokyo. After an easy pick-up at our hotel, she kindly introduced us to the complicated metro system. With her help we arrived in the Asakusa area and wandered along the local shops and discovered the history at Sensoji Temple. We then continued to Ueno Park and visited historic statues and impressive temples. Through an open air street market we arrived at our lunch location where Lea ordered a delicious variety of Japanese food. We then decided to amend the original itinerary and spend the remaining time in the Tokyo National Museum, particularly with the highlights on the second floor and a special exhibition of Hiroshige works. All along we heard a lot about recent developments in Japanese society and culture. Great thanks to Leandra for providing a wonderful perspective of Tokyo and being sich a pleasant guide, both stimulating and flexible for us curious visitors from Europe.

“Our Trip To Japan”

Leandra was absolutely amazing. We were privileged to have her for two days and saw everything we expected to see and more. Leandra has great knowledge of Tokyo and was so nice to have a guide that was fluent in English and Japanese. She guided us with great ease through the extremely busy city and crowds. Some of our highlights were going through Shinjuku Station and a photograph by Hatchi’s monument. Leandra was very patient, pleasant and very easy to deal with. We ended our tour with an amazing Tapinyaki dinner at the hotel which was also amazing. We would highly recommend her to anyone who is unfamiliar with Tokyo, first timers for an easy guided tour and by the end of the day you feel like you accomplished what you wanted as well as learned to navigate somewhat yourself. Don’t hesitate to hire her as well can’t say enough about her… you’ll be glad you did. We are planning our next trip there and we will be arranging to use her services again.

“Evening tour”

We enjoyed our second tour with the same guide, and once again, it was an outstanding experience! Our guide was just as knowledgeable, friendly, and professional as the first time. Their passion for sharing the local history and culture made the tour both interesting and memorable. We were so happy with our first experience that choosing the same guide again was an easy decision, and we were not disappointed! We highly recommend this guide to anyone looking for a wonderful, informative, and enjoyable tour. Thank you again for another fantastic experience!
