About Tour Guide Etsu I.

Hello! I’m Etsu, your friendly local guide in Tokyo.


I specialize in bar-hopping tours, taking you to lively izakaya bars and hidden food stalls to enjoy authentic Japanese flavors.

If you love delicious street food, healthy Japanese dishes, or sake tasting, you’ll be in the right hands.


I also guide visitors to famous landmarks such as Tokyo Tower and Skytree, and for anime fans, I’m happy to show you around anime-related museums and shops.


To make your trip smooth and stress-free, I can meet you at your hotel, escort you on the subway, and bring you back safely—so you can relax and enjoy the journey.


We can also create a custom plan: for example, sampling local food and drinks, visiting historic shrines, and experiencing Tokyo’s vibrant nightlife all in one memorable tour.


If you’re curious about Japanese food culture, healthy eating, or simply want to explore Tokyo in a fun and authentic way, please feel free to contact me. I look forward to welcoming you!

Important

When you meet me, I recommend you leave your large luggage, such as suitcases, at the hotel in advance. This will make it easier for you to enjoy the tour without the burden of heavy bags.

Wonderful guide to Tokyo!

We asked for a foodie and shopping tour of Tokyo and spent a lot of time near Shibuya (I think). It started to rain heavily during our tour so we went away from outdoor markets and down into some gorgeous shops instead. After the rains we went up to tour food stalls. Arrive hungry for your tour!! Etsu was well prepared, flexible, charming, easy to talk with, and energetic. We enjoyed the day she prepared and her personality and I absolutely recommend her!

Thank you very much for your kind words and for coming all the way from your country. Despite the rain, I truly appreciate that you joined me and enjoyed all the tours. You, your husband, and your son were not only very friendly but also energetic and positive. That is why I was so happy to know that you were satisfied with this plan. I am very much looking forward to seeing you again in the future.

Great Dining Experience

I thorougly enjoyed spending 2 evenings in Tokyo with Etsu as my private restaurant guide, and it was a genuinely outstanding experience. We explored different areas of the city, including Ebisu and Yurakucho, which gave a great contrast of atmosphere. From relaxed neighbourhood dining to more vibrant, lively streets. Etsu curated the experience beautifully, introducing me to excellent local food and venues I would not have discovered on my own. What stood out most was her ability to easily converse in English and balance professionalism with a very natural, easy-going style. She was knowledgeable, attentive, and highly organised, while also making the time feel relaxed and enjoyable. Etsu has a great sense of what I was looking for and I felt very well looked after throughout. I would highly recommend Etsu to anyone looking for a personalised and authentic Tokyo dining experience.

Thank you for your wonderful comment. I am so glad to hear that you enjoyed my tour. In spite of your business outfit, I was surprised that you walked, walked, and walked a lot. Also, one of the most interesting things for me was that we talked about tax returns. Since you are an accountant, I learned a lot of things. On the first day, it was raining and a sudden change of the plan was needed, but you understood well, and I was glad to see that you had fun. On the second day, unexpected things happened, such as the restaurant being closed, but you smiled. Thanks to your behavior, I could research and find another place without rushing. I will remember that we drank beer for tasting. There was a calm atmosphere, right? It was so wonderful to drink and talk there. If you have a chance to visit Japan again, let me take you on a more exciting tour!

Pleasant trip for first timer

Etsu was an amazing guide in Tokyo. She picked me up directly at my hotel, which made everything very easy, especially since it was my first time in Japan. We visited Tsukiji Market and Tokyo Skytree, and she made getting around Tokyo simple and pleasant. We also stopped for matcha ice cream and had a few meals along the way, unagi, dango etc. I had a fantastic time and would absolutely recommend her to anyone visiting Tokyo for the first time. Thank you!!

Thank you for your comment. I was so happy to guide you and enjoy girls' talk. Also it was precious time for drinking beer together. You were so cute and had a great sense of humor. Also, you looked like you were having fun, especially when you were browsing the Soramachi area. If you have a chance to come again, let's go bar hopping at night. I am looking forward to seeing you again. Once again, thank you for coming all the way to Japan.
