“Loved Yuji!”
We booked a tour with Yuji for our first day in Tokyo and had a great experience. He’s super friendly, communicated well, and did a great job catering to our needs. He helped us learn how to use the train system, brought us to some fantastic locations, and had us try certain off-the-beaten path things that we would never have considered. He also acted as our “personal paparazzi,” taking lots of photos of us throughout the day so we could focus on being in the moment. We highly recommend booking Yuji!

Dear Steven san, Thank you for your warm review !! I do appreciate it. I am glad that you enjoyed my tour. I always take natural snapshots from a creator's perspective, so this is the first time I've been described as a paparazzi! hahaha. I like that !! Please, enjoy the rest of your trip in Japan !

“More than just a tour – like exploring with a local friend”
Five stars! Our guide was exceptional and very flexible with our requests. He showed us a great mix of famous landmarks and 'off-the-beaten-path' locations. Highly recommended for anyone who wants a tour that is customized to their own pace and interests!

Tokyo,Now &Then
Tokyo is a modern metropolitan city built on an ancient Edo, where Tokugawa samurai government was settled. Even now we can find old relics of ancient Edo among truly modern Tokyo streets. Asakusa, Ueno and the Imperial Palace itself are some of the examples. Let’s explore Tokyo with me and find the soul of Japan.
