This tour takes you to the places you chose from a wide variety of sight seeing spots only Tokyo can offer. Some of them are: Tokyo Skytree, Asakusa Sensoji Temple, Shinjuku Gyoen Garden, and Akihabara. Also, please don't hesitate to tell me what you would like if you are more interested in non-touristy spots, such as Used Bookstore Street in Jimbocho or secondhand clothing stores in Shimo-Kitazawa. In any case, I will customize a perfect tour for you!!

“An incredible day out with Junko!”
Our day with Junko in Tokyo was one that we will never forget! She took us to some amazing sites, showed us how to use the daunting subway system and was fantastic company throughout the entire day. Could not recommend her highly enough! For us, it was definitely one of the highlights of our trip.
