Yokohama tour from Tokyo by car
Joined 2024
This is Yokohama guide tour by car. I'm not sure how many other guides mention the summer in Japan is so hot and worse than you can imagine. Yokohama is the 2nd biggest city in Japan, with 3.8 million population. It's one of the popular areas for Japanese to live or stay. It's also one major port cities in Japan. You can see the traditional & modern arctectures in Yokohama area. I'll be responsible for everything from hotel pick-up, transportation to each point, and transportation to your hotel.

Meeting Point
your hotel or any place you want in Tokyo
Red Brick Warehouse
Yokohama Red Brick Warehouse is a key part of the scenery along the shores of Yokohama Port. the Customs Inspection House for Yokohama Bay's shipping activities in the early 1920's, these handsome red brick buildings have been converted into one of Yokohama's most popular family or date spots.
Chinatown
Yokohama Chinatown is the biggest Chinatown in Japan. A large number of Chinese stores and restaurants can be found in the narrow and colorful streets of Chinatown. It is a good place to have lunch if you like Chinese food.
Yamashita Park
Yamashita Park is a public park that stretches about 750 meters along Yokohama's waterfront, Bay area. It was founded in 1930 by filling the area with the debris of the great Kanto earthquake opened.
Hikawamaru
The Hikawa Maru was a cargo and passenger ship that crossed the Pacific Ocean on the Japan-Seattle route on the North American route for about 30 years starting in 1930. In 2016, she was designated as a national important cultural property as the only existing cargo-passenger ship built in pre-war Japan.
Sankeien
Sankeien is one of the famous Japanese gardens in Japan. There is a pond, small rivers, flowers and wonderful scrolling trails that make you think you are in Kyoto. Not only foreign tourists, but many Japanese also love this garden.
Landmark Tower
Landmark Tower is one of the most recognizable features of Yokohama’s bayside skyline. At just over 296 meters tall, it is the second tallest building in Japan. The top floor, named Sky Garden, offers you incredible 360-degree panoramic views of the city, Yokohama Port, Tokyo Bay, Tokyo City, and Mount Fuji on clear days.
Noge / Koganecho
After dark in Yokohama, I recommend the Noge area in Naka-ku, Yokohama. You can feel the retro atmosphere in the cityscape, which is packed with everything from old Japanese bars to various cafes, bars, and clubs. Koganecho has residences where many artists gather, and you can enjoy young Japanese art works this area.

Reviews
“What a great day!”
In his Mini Cooper, Yuji covered a lot of territory for us in just one day. He was informative,, and his English is well understandable. In fact he taught us some Japanese. The day passed quickly and he managed to find a superb lunch, catering to my food peculiarities. He was also very solicitous with and to my husband who has difficulty walking. Ha managed to tailor the tour to our needs and was flexible throughout. I would highly recommend him!

Dear Ken & Sue Thamk you for your review. I really enjoied spending time with 2 of you today. I changed the plan so that your husband, Ken, wouldn't have to walk much, but he still had to walk a little anyway. I'll never forget the smile he gave me and the big hug he gave me at the end. Thank you for sharing your wonderful time with me. I hope you enjoy the rest of your trip.
“Personal art tour”
I had a great day with Yuji! Before I booked we agreed on an itinerary of some museums in Tokyo and also in Yokohama. Communication before we met up was good and Yuji made me feel welcome, and he had also done some research, so we made a small detour to see a pop up exhibition as well. Yuji also took lots of pictures, which was nice, as a solo traveller you're rarely in your own photos. Yuji is an easy-going guide and he loves to drive his mini, which meant I was dropped back right in front of my hotel, nice after a long day. Thank you Yuji!

“Accommodating and Informative”
To be honest, I would not have navigated Tokyo as easily without Yuji-sensei's instruction. Showed me some great places with delicious eats and I learned a lot along the way. Very patient and relaxed individual. Went out of his way facilitate my interests.

Dear Jochen san Than you for your review and even, also call me "Sensei". I am so glad you could spend the rest of your stay without any serious trouble in Tokyo. I knew it is a pice of cake for you. Please, come back with your beautiful wife next time, and guide her & maybe me. Actually I was almost going to spend more time asking you questions about your work & your experiences instead of guiding you. Please, safe trip to home !!! See you again !
