You can visit must-see spots of Tokyo very efficiently in a day.
As Tokyo has well developed and precise public transportation systems, you can visit those spots by using public transportation and walk. The geography of Tokyo is not so easy for first commers because of complicated networks of road as well as the networks of trains and subways. English signs are not sufficient sometimes.
If I can assist your trip as a government licensed guided interpreter, your trip in Tokyo will become very smooth and enjoyable. You can visit important places within a day very efficiently with explanation of the background and the history of the places and facilities. If you have some other requests apart from the standard itinerary, I will try to cope with it flexibly. Ask me anything you want to know about Japan. I would like to communicate with you as much as possible.
Weekdays are available depending on my schedule.
