move to Asakusa
Asakusa Nakamise Street / Try street local foods!
Nakamise Street is the most famous shopping street in Asakusa. The street runs for 250 meters on the main approach to Sensoji Temple and is lined on both sides with shops selling traditional souvenirs, snacks, and sweets.
Asakusa Sensoji / Visit the oldest temple in Tokyo
Sensoji Temple in Asakusa is the oldest and most famous temple in Tokyo with a history going back 1,400 years. This temple is dedicated to Kannon, the Buddhist goddess of mercy, and it is incredibly popular with millions of people visiting every year.
Ameshin, traditional Japanese candy shop / Let's try making a candy!
Ameshin, a group of candy craftsmen founded by Shinri Tezuka, is committed to upholding the tradition of Amezaiku, which is dying out due to a lack of successors, while at the same time bringing innovative never-seen-before creations into the world.
note: It's not private workshop. Other customers can join the workshop.
Dinner at a Okonomiyaki restaurant!
Okonomiyaki is a savory pancake and is made with vegetables, meat, seafood, and other ingredients, cooked on a griddle with flour-based batter and served with special sauce. While Kansai-style okonomiyaki is prepared by pre-mixing the ingredients and batter together before cooking, Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki is made by cooking the batter and ingredients in layers without mixing them on the griddle. Besides these two popular versions, similar dishes are found in other areas throughout the country.
Izakaya / Japanese style bar hopping!
Izakaya is a type of informal Japanese bar that serves alcoholic drinks and snacks. Izakaya are casual places for after-work drinking, similar to a pub, a Spanish tapas bar, or an American saloon or tavern.

Tokyo Tour Reviews
“Brilliant second trip with Toshi ”
Toshi suggested this as something we may enjoy and as we’d be looking at trying to get tickets arranged the trip through him. We were taken to a traditional, authentic and small sumo stable to watch morning practice and get a better understanding of the sport. It was something very special to witness and we thank Toshi for sorting this for us. Both trips we did we him were excellent. Many thanks again Toshi, our best wishes to you and your family Neil, Kirsty & Sam

Japanese Local Bar & Izakaya Hopping in Shinjuku or Shibuya
“Excellent evening exploring Shibuya with Toshi”
We booked this tour from the UK before travelling to Japan. Toshi gave us lots of information and recommendations to help with our trip as well as providing a great evening tour. The two places we went too where restaurants / bars we would not of found on our own. The food, service and drinks were excellent. Toshi is a great guy, very easy to talk to and share information about himself, Japan, its culture and things to do. We had a brilliant time, would absolutely recommend and arrange to see him again when we return to Japan. Thanks for the whisky recommendations and taking me to a place with a great and reasonably priced selection!
“Tokyo Tours”
My experience with Toshi was amazing. I couldn't be happier with his service. Really great guide, very helpful, punctual, informative and fun. He helped us get setup with our metro cards our first day which was extremly useful for getting around throughout our stay. He also found some great activities like local festival, SUMO, Shrine, Temple visits and night scene. He took great pictures of us and shared them with us for great memories. He also, recommended places and things to do for our own the rest of the days we were there. Helped us a lot in making the most of our first time in Tokyo. Definitely recommend him for your Tokyo experience!
