“Tokyo Must See Tour”
We had a very nice tour with Virginia B. She was pleasant and shared all her knowledge for each of our stops. We took many different trains and did lots of walking. We did not feel rushed and able to enjoy the sights at each location.

“Beaucoup, à notre rythme”
Virginie a su adapté les visites à notre rythme, à notre âge. Elle proposait des pauses pour reposer nous jambes. Très apprécié. Avec elle nous avons compris comment fonctionnait le réseau du métro. Les incontournables de Tokyo: ses explications, sans être interminables, étaient suffisantes pour susciter notre intérêt. Elle répondait à nos questions avec franchise. Virginie nous avons vraiment apprécié notre journée avec toi. Merci. Sylvie et Alain 05-04-2025.

Other Popular Off the Beaten Path Tours in Tokyo
Excursion off the Beaten Track in the Suburbs of Tokyo
We will explore the western suburbs of Tokyo in this tour. If you are looking for something different from the crowded tourist attractions in the central part of Tokyo, you will enjoy exploring the western suburbs of Tokyo. I recommend this tour not to first timers but to repeaters who have been to famous places in Tokyo. You will discover traditional spots in the beautiful environment of the suburbs. Weather permitting, lunch in a local restaurant can be replaced by a picnic lunch in a park.
The unbeaten tracks of Sumida and Koto Wards (5 hour excursion)
Sumida and Koto area was part of the eastern peripheral of old Edo with many second houses of feudal lords which typically had splendid Japanese gardens. Visit and stroll two gardens that have been retained to this day. Also included are visits to a memorial park related to the Kanto Earthquake of 1923, a historic Buddhist temple related to Sumo and the Fukagawa Edo Museum.

Japanese Gardens and Tokyo Life: Bunkyo City Customized Tour
Bunkyo City is in the heart of central Tokyo, just north of Chiyoda City where the Imperial Palace and Tokyo Station are. The city is Tokyo’s typical residential and academic area where I was born, grew up, and live now. We'll move around the city with a Bunkyo City Community Bus, B-guru ( “beagle”, the mascot character of the bus), and visit Edo-Tokyo Japanese gardens and other calm and pleasant sites. You'll also catch a glimpse of Tokyo citizens’ life during the tour.
