“Amazing day with Aissam”
Our extended family of 6 (3 adults and 3 kids aged 8 to 10) had a BLAST with Aissam. Not only was the physical touring (public transportation + walking) seamless, he recommended fun, age appropriate activities and destinations that engaged all of us. Moreover, he has a lot of experience dealing with kids so was able to interact with them at their level in an educational way. Kids and adults all loved it. Thank you Sam for a great day!!

“Super guide francophone”
Nous avons passé une super après-midi avec Aissam, qui nous a fait découvrir Tokyo avec beaucoup d'enthousiasme. Il a adapté le programme à nos enfants (4 ans et 7 ans) en prévoyant des pauses et un passage par des attractions "kid-friendly". Je recommande Aissam comme guide!
Aissam E.
Merci beaucoup pour ce retour chaleureux ! C’était un réel plaisir de vous accompagner et de partager cette découverte de Tokyo avec votre famille. Je suis ravi que les enfants aient apprécié les activités et que l’itinéraire ait convenu à tous. Au plaisir de vous revoir pour une prochaine aventure au Japon !

*Bookings for cherry blossom season are full; if the date on the calendar is greyed out I am not available* 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
