I can't recommend Carol highly enough. She is an amazing local guide with vast experience of Tokyo and Japan. Our whole itinerary was customised including last min changes on the day. Carol is lovely and I had the best time seeing the city in her company!

“Great half day tour of Tokyo”
We had such a great time with our Carol! She was super fun, easygoing, and really knew her stuff. She was also super flexible and helped us out a lot when we ran into some transit issues, which we really appreciated. She made our first day in Tokyo way smoother and more enjoyable—highly recommend!
