“Tokyo Highlights ”

Melody was absolutely amazing and made our day in Tokyo one of the highlights of our trip. We were a group of seven, including two kids, and we walked over 25,000 steps exploring the city. Despite the long day, Melody never lost his energy or enthusiasm. He truly went above and beyond for our group and even stayed past our scheduled nine-hour tour to make sure we had the experience we wanted. He was knowledgeable, patient, friendly, and genuinely cared about making our day special. I can’t recommend Melody highly enough. If you’re coming to Tokyo and looking for a tour guide, I would strongly recommend booking with Melody. We would absolutely choose him again on our next trip to Tokyo!

Our itinerary included Senso-ji Temple, Kaneiji Temple, the Saigo Takamori Statue, the Moon Pine, Shinobazu Pond, Ueno Toshogu Shrine, best ramen for lunch, a Pokémon card specialty store, anime shops in Akihabara, Tokyo Station, Onitsuka Tiger, trains from KITTE, the Imperial Palace, Omotesando, Takeshita Street, the Hachiko Statue, Shibuya Scramble Crossing, and LOFT. We basically packed two days’ worth of sightseeing into just one day! Your kids had incredible energy, and I had such a fun time exploring Tokyo with all of you. Thank you again for a wonderful day!I truly look forward to seeing you again in Japan!

“Excellent guide even in troubled weather ”

We booked with Melody for a Hakone tour at the last minute due to a canceled tour with another guide. It turned out to be a very positive twist of fate. Melody asked questions and made recommendations to give us a great custom tour. The weather turned very bad, with storms and heavy rain. But with Melody's guidance,we still had a very pleasant, albeit wet day. He never once complained or suggested we cut the tour short. He was a trooper who did everything he could to makes it as fulfilling a tour as possible. He also has a very good grasp of history and is very willing to share and educate his clients. Thanks again Melody. I'm sure this is a tour neither of us will forget.

Eddie, thank you very much for the wonderful review! Meeting you both was such a wonderful surprise. We visited Owakudani, Lake Ashi, the Hakone Checkpoint, and Hakone Shrine. The ropeway ride in the rain and storm was quite an adventure! For lunch, we enjoyed tonkatsu, hitsumabushi, and seiro-mushi. I will never forget such a unique trip and the wonderful day we spent together. I sincerely hope you make many more amazing memories during the rest of your time in Japan! Until we meet again!

“Amazing first day in Tokyo”

Our tour with Melody was fantastic. We are a family of four (with two young adult kids) traveling to Japan for the first time. Melody took us on a tour our first full day in Tokyo and it was amazing. He had excellent communication leading up to the tour day. We created a general plan for the day but he was very flexible during the actual tour day. He adjusted and tailored the tour to our interests and his expertise. He was very knowledgeable, very friendly, and made the whole day an extremely fun and memorable experience. He was very generous with his time and incredibly helpful. We will all cherish our time we spent with him. I can’t recommend him highly enough. I only wish we were able to spend more time with him. Thank you Melody!

Rodney, thank you very much for your heartwarming review and beautiful pictures! We had such a wonderful day together. In Asakusa, you bought authentic kimono and ukiyo-e prints, and in Akihabara, we enjoyed capsule toys and anime figures, and even visited a maid cafe. And of course, the ramen, gyoza, and beer were amazing! We also visited Meiji Shrine and Takeshita Street. As someone who loves art myself, I was truly impressed by your family’s passion for art. Even now, thinking back on the memories we made together brings a smile to my face. Until we meet again, I wish you and your wonderful family all the best. Take care, and I hope to see you again someday!
