It was a joy to share the city's highlights and their historical significance with you. I'm glad you found my company enjoyable and that I could answer all your questions.

The Perfect Tour Guide

Arnold was a great tour guide and tailored a schedule to everything I wanted to see in Tokyo. He was accommodating especially when I made the mistake of when I was arriving in town. We did message beforehand to determine what I would like to see during my visit in Tokyo. He definitely knows where the best places to go are. I had the chance to see the anime district, Nintendo store, temples and shrines, along with the shopping and eating in Shibuya, Akihabara, Harajuku and Omotesando. He definitely made this visit fun and I highly recommend using him as a tour guide for Tokyo.

Hi Matt, I wanted to extend a huge thank you for your wonderful review! It means a lot to me that you enjoyed exploring Tokyo together and that the itinerary suited your preferences. I'm glad I could make your visit memorable and fun. If you ever find yourself back in Tokyo, please don't hesitate to reach out. Safe travels, and wishing you all the best! Warm regards, Arnold

Just like a local friend showing you his hometown

Arnold is like a good pal trying to figure out what I would like to do while visiting Tokyo. We had many exchanges of ideas before the tour, and he also addressed other random questions I raised (from suica card, which telco has better coverage, where to get Japan limited sneakers etc). He knows the story of places we visited, took me to a nice sushi restaurant in Tsukiji fish market with a shorter queue, gave suggestions to my IG moments, and walked me to the dinner place even beyond the booked hours. I am glad we managed to explore Tokyo together, and grateful I secured his only slot in June (based on his high rating). Fluent in English and Japanese, can speak conversational Chinese, cat lover and accommodative. That’s a good pal you would like to hang out when you are in Tokyo.

Hi, I'm Ritsuko, a national licensed tour guide. I was born and raised in Tokyo. As Tokyo is a city of many faces, I hope you will discover your hidden gems during the tour. I love to wander around the shops and places downtown and one of my hobbies is to find daily-use products made in Japan. So I can select unique souvenirs for you within your budget! I am football-mad and have been to every FIFA World Cup except one tournament since 1998. I also love to go island hopping in Asia. That's why I have been to over 30 countries.

Tokyo Tour Guide - Grant A.

Hello! My name is Grant, and I’ve spent over a decade living and exploring Japan. Originally from Omaha, Nebraska, I first came to Japan as a high school exchange student in Inuyama, a historic castle town in Aichi. My love for Japan began early—sparked by childhood games like Pokémon that were released in Japanese before English. This passion led me to pass the N2 Japanese Language Proficiency Test in 2018, study at language schools across Japan, and graduate from the Japan Visual Media Translation Academy. I’ve traveled to every prefecture in Japan, often using unlimited rail passes to explore castles, historic sites, and regional specialties. I hold a degree in Asian Studies from a Tokyo university, and my extensive experience living in Tokyo has made me an expert on the city’s transportation system, hidden gems, and affordable eats. With over 30 visits to Kyoto, I have deep knowledge of its historical sites and the broader cultural landscape of Japan. I studied at Japanese language school in Kyoto. I visited all the world heritage sites in Kyoto and have a lot of knowledge on the history of Japan. I can provide tours of Kyoto or places outside of Tokyo for an additional transportation fee. Tour options: Half-Day Tour: 20,000 yen (4 hours) Full-Day Tour: 40,000 yen (8 hours) Full-Day Tour Outside of Tokyo: 40,000 yen plus transportation expense
