“Great tour, great time, great value”
The tour with Mido was simply wonderful. Not like being with a guide, but like being shown around the city by a friend. Entertaining, exciting, and also educational. We immediately got along and had an absolutely great time. For anyone who wants to get to know Tokyo off the beaten tourist path, a tour with Mido is a must. Full marks—highly recommended!

Thank you very much for the amazing review ️️️️️ I truly appreciate you taking the time to share your experience. I’m really glad you enjoyed the tour and that it felt natural, friendly, and engaging rather than a typical guided visit. Showing Tokyo in a personal way and discovering places beyond the usual tourist routes is exactly what I love to do. It was a pleasure spending the day with you, and I’m happy we shared such a great time. You’re always welcome back in Tokyo—hope to see you again someday. Thank you so much for the recommendation!

“Hiring a relaxed friend for an adventure ”
I can’t say enough good things about Mido. He gave me the opportunity to see 300% more sights than if I’d tried on my own. He was a laid-back knowledgeable local with a no-pressure attitude about exploring. Mido is really good at this type of work, and it’s clear with the way he treats you and talks to you.

I always try to make my tours feel like exploring with a friend, so I’m glad that came through. You were amazing to guide, and I appreciate the good vibes and trust you gave me throughout the day. If you ever come back to Japan, I’d be more than happy to explore more hidden spots with you. Thanks again for your kind words!

“An engaging personalized tour with a "friend"”
Touring with Mido is like having a friend show you around their city. The tour was a great blend of hidden gems and tourist areas. Mido is patient and kind. We covered a lot of ground while waking at a relaxed pace. We learned so much about Japanese culture. He catered the tour to our liking and gave us awesome food/ shopping recommendations. We also felt very safe. We highly recommend booking Mido for your next tour.

I’m so excited to have a chance to show you around my favorite spots in Kanagawa prefecture. I was born in Kanagawa. I spent my whole school life, including university, here in Kanagawa. I worked as a high school English teacher here for more than 40 years. I love Kanagawa so much. We have many interesting tourist spots, like Hakone, Kamakura, Enoshima and Yokohama. I got my tour guide license in English in 2009. I am still an English teacher. To give an interesting and impressive lesson to young high school students, I’ve learnt and gathered many kinds of information. I also have a license to teach social studies, so I have a wide range of knowledge about Japanese culture and history. I’m sure to provide you an interesting tour.

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. That early curiosity grew into a lifelong passion for Japanese language, culture, and history. I hold an N2 on the Japanese Language Proficiency Test, a degree in Asian Studies from a Tokyo university, and I graduated from the Japan Visual Media Translation Academy. I’ve visited all 47 prefectures and explored a wide range of historical sites, shrines, and castles throughout the country. My background in Japanese history helps me provide context that brings depth and meaning to the places we visit—whether it's understanding a centuries-old temple in Kyoto, the story behind a castle ruin, or uncovering the historical layers of a Tokyo neighborhood. If you’re planning to explore Tokyo, here are some tour options to consider: One day in Tokyo? The Ginza Line Tour offers a great introduction to the city’s highlights. Two days? Pair the East Tokyo Tour and West Tokyo Tour to get a well-rounded experience. Interested in anime? The Anime Tour is flexible and can be tailored to match your specific interests. For those looking to go beyond the city, I also offer day trips to Nikko, Kamakura, and other nearby destinations. While most guests book Tokyo-based tours, I also guide in other regions—especially Kyoto, where I’ve visited every World Heritage Site. I regularly lead tours in Osaka, Nara, Nagoya, Hikone, and other locations easily reached by rail. Multi-day and custom tours are available on request. Full-Day Tour: 40,000 yen (8 hours) Full-Day Tour Outside of Tokyo: 40,000 yen + transportation Feel free to get in touch to plan a tour that fits your interests and travel plans.

Chiaki K.
Welcome to Japan! My name is Chiaki. I’m a government licensed guide interpreter, a wife and mother of two grown-up children. I’ve been living in Tokyo for 30 years so I know the area well. If you don’t want to miss popular “must see” places, wish to eat a variety of Japanese popular and delicious food, have particular interest in Japanese theatrical arts, architectures, gardens, tea ceremony and “kawaii” characters, or are tired of tourist spots and like to see the real life of people in Japan, I can help you. My goal is to help you to make your stay in Japan as memorable and fulfilling as possible. If I can serve you to make your special trip more special, it will be my pleasure.
