Traditional and Modern One-day Tour in Tokyo
Best recommended tour for the first-time visitor to Tokyo. Tokyo is a unique city with various traditional and contemporary attractions. Let’s create your personalized time in Tokyo by discussing the places you want to visit. You should plan a tour of different sites, such as Kamakura and Hakone, along with my other plan. I am based in Tokyo, but I would happily arrange your tour.
Visit Kamakura, the 13th century capital of Japan!
Kamakura was the capital of Japan from the late 12th century after the Heian period in Kyoto. You can enjoy the Samurai—time temples and shrines with the Big Buddha. You can also visit Plum Wine Lab to create your plum wine by selecting the type of plums, sugar, and liqueur. You can bring it back as a souvenir
Let's explore the traditional and modern sides of Tokyo.
I don't know if you think something is different in Japan, but I suppose it is because it is based on a unique discipline called Shinto. Let's explore what makes Japan unique by visiting several unique sites in Tokyo. This trip includes several sites you feel are unique, and I am happy to explain what makes Japan different from Western cultures. I am based in Tokyo, but I am happy to arrange any kind of tour even to Kyoto and Nara. Just contact me for further details!
Half-Day Asakusa Goshuin Tour (Temple-Shrine Red Seal Rally)
Do you understand the difference between a temple and a shrine? You can explore the Japanese religious tradition by touring and collecting the Goshuin at the temples and shrines in the Asakusa area. It is very recommended for those who want to know the background of Japanese culture.
One-day Scenic Tour to Hakone from Tokyo
Let's enjoy the scenic beauty at Hakone Hakone, a scenic site, is only 1 hour away from Tokyo by train. It is also a popular spot for Tokyoites to spend a weekend or one-day trip. Why don’t you spend your free time at Hakone, where you can enjoy Lake Ashinoko and a volcano in a day? It is highly recommended to book with my other tour plan, "Traditional and Modern One-day Tour in Tokyo," as you can fully enjoy your Tokyo stay within a limited time.
Half-Day Business Meeting Plus Alfa.
I am experienced with business interpreters. After serving as an interpreter for your business meeting, I can take you to the nearby historical/cultural spots of your choice. Please feel free to reach out to me for more details.

Visit Kamakura, the 13th century capital of Japan!
“Great Guide Atsushi, Great Day in Kamakura!”
Atsushi met us at our hotel in the morning and arranged all transportation and communications. He is very professional, kind, knowledgeable, accommodating, and can appease any request. The sights in Kamakura were amazing and the weather was a beautiful day. He took us to an excellent restaurant for Soba and our stomachs were very happy! Given that we were on a tight timeframe that day, Atsushi ensured that we made our train back to the airport on time and escorted us along the way. When our train stopped due to an issue, he assured us that we would make our later flight and provided alternative solutions. Fortunately the train resumed and all went according to plan. Atsushi is a man of great character and we recommend him for your tour.

I am very thrilled that you two enjoyed a tour in Kamakura. Although I had limited time and could take you to only a few places, I believe you will be back in Japan soon, and I hope to see you again!
“Highlights of Tokyo with excellent guide”
Atsushi is very friendly and helpful and well organised. He showed us a lot of Tokyo in just one day. We saw Schryns and Temples and of course typically market. We walked a lot and at the end we where tired but happy.

It is my pleasure to spend time with people like you, and I believe you thoroughly enjoyed your stay in Tokyo. I hope your cruise will be happier than ever and you will return to Japan someday.
