10:00 AM

Meeting Point

Your Hotel in the 23 wards or closest train Station

- Depending on your hotel location we can meet at Shinjuku station, your hotel or directly at Shibuya. Depending on your location, we can also add the 43rd floor of the Tokyo Metropolitan Government building into the tour as well. This is a “wow” factor for the kids seeing a 360 degree view of Tokyo and seeing how massive Tokyo really is. Also we can do an orientation to help you family navigate the transportation system here and also how to use Suica/PASMO cards. I play a game at a convenience store: If the kids can buy a treat using Japanese then I buy it and let them keep it.

Shibuya

See the famous Shibuya crossing and Hachiko Dog. If there are teenagers in the group then they may love to see famous fashion shops.

There is also the Pokemon/Nintendo shop, claw machines at games centers and a toy capsule shop that the kids will love.

Tokio Food Mall is also right next to the station if you would like to pick up Japanese food to enjoy in Yoyogi Park.

Harajuku Takeshita Dori

Youth culture is on show here with the lively Takeshita street. We can enjoy crepes, long potatoes and giant cotton candy.. Also a wonderful cat cafe ( Some of my guests prefer to not go to the animal cafes in Harajuku for ethical reasons. I completely understand. I’m happy to take guests to other animal cafes upon request but the cat cafe is the only one that I’m personally ethically ok with in regards to animal welfare).

Yoyogi Park

The lively and beautiful Yoyogi park in Tokyo. Located right next to Meiji Shrine. This can also be a drop off point to enjoy lunch and wander around. Depending on the season we can see Autumn leaves or the beautiful cherry tree blossoms.

Meiji Jingu

The famous Meiji Jingu where we will walk to the temple and teach you how the Japanese pray. This is where I play a Japanese game with the children whilst also explaining the historical significance of this amazing, sacred place to the adults of the group.

Optional : Shinjuku Station and Godzilla head

The busiest station in the world. Some of my little guests are fascinated with trains so this is an option for them . Also there is a big Godzilla head on the side of a building that some of the little ones have greatly enjoyed seeing.

Ending Point

Drop Off Hotel or Train Station or Yoyogi Park. It’s completely dependent on where is the best place for your family.

About Tour Guide Dan C.

Hi I’m a friendly Australian living in Japan for 20 years. I work as a Kindergarten teacher here so I design my tours to be very Family Friendly: stress free for the parents and exciting for the kids. I particularly love to make little packs filled with goodies for the kids so they can experience what Japanese kids do. I want my guests to experience a real Japan and I love teaching Japanese to the little ones. * Children with special needs and/or mobility issues are especially welcomed. I can make accommodations and plan a tour based on their unique needs.

We loved Dan- Highly recommend!

We had so much fun with Dan! He's fantastic with children and was the perfect guide for our first day in Tokyo. Dan helped us with everything from getting Suica cards and navigating the Metro, to how to properly bow at temples. He's awesome, fun to be with and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend!

Learn Japanese while touring Shinjuku, Harajuku and Shibuya

Dan was wonderful with our 5 and 9 year old children. He asked about their personalities prior to the tour and customized his tour to fit them. He was full of information for the adults and at the same time entertaining for the children.

Felt like traveling with a friend

Dan was amazing. He went above and beyond in planning and fulfilling a bucket list trip to Tokyo. Dan, not only listened to my ideas, bought offered great suggestions and fulfilled a must see trip list in Tokyo. He was fun, engaging and made you feel like an old friend. Would definitely recommend!!!
