About Tour Guide Akira N.

“Excellent orientation to Tokyo ”

Akira made our day very enjoyable as he personalised the tour for us. The discussions before arriving as to our tour were personalised to what we were wanting. Highlight of the day was our lunch in Sugamo, and Akira explained many Japanese customs and the transport systems that would help us to understand for the next 5 weeks touring around Japan. Highly recommend Akira.

“Enjoyable Walking Tour of Tokyo Neighborhoods”

We spent 3 days with Akira-san seeing a mixture of must-see highlights and residential neighborhoods. He tailored the tours to our interests and pace, and we had amazing meals and snacks. He has a serene and dignified presence, combining a calm demeanor with utmost professionalism. He made the entire experience feel effortless and enriching. Absolutely wonderful tour guide.

Hello Richard, Thank you so much for the wonderful review and thank you so much for having me for three days. I believe you could get a glimpse of Tokyo, and you could get an idea of what it is like to be a local in the city. I am so happy that we enjoyed our exchange naturally and I believe it all because of warm and kind personality that you and Suzan have. I am looking forward to another chance to explore my loving city together. Sincerely Akira P.S. Thank you so much for the bagful of delicious peanuts. I might be eating them until I get a nosebleed….!

“A memorable look into Tokyo life”

My siblings and I had a tour with Akira that brought us to some of the more well known and lesser known parts of Tokyo. From Shinjuku to Sugamo, we saw some beautiful gardens, shopped at local markets, and tried some delicious food. We learned a lot including how to make prayers and offerings at Buddhist temples and Shinto shrines, using public transit, and a couple Japanese phrases. Akira was a wonderful guide through all of it and was always willing to share his experiences or listen to ours. I will definitely seek him out again if/when I come back to Tokyo and will be recommending him to others! Domo!

Dear Reece, Thank you so much for the great review. I am so glad to know you all had a good time just like I did. Guiding happy, close siblings like you four was a lot of fun. It was nice of you treating me friendlily like your neighbor, in a way that made me feel easy to talk, and to listen. I hope the tour was informative and helpful enough to see my loving country through the eyes of local like me. See you next time! Sincerely, Akira
