Very good - I went solo on this last minute! And damn i was impressed. Shuto was my travel guide and he went above and beyond, truely, during the tour to get to know me and show me around tokyo. I saw and learned things i would never know and he made my experience well worth it.

Great tour! - I has a list of sights I wanted to see in Tokyo. And read that this tour had many of them covered. I thought its much better to have a guide explaining everything than doing them on my own. Thankfully, I couldn’t be happier. Mary was great. She was insightful, patient, very well aware of the Japanese culture and know the history of the country. I was also lucky to be the only one that day! So it was like a private tour! I totally recommend doing this tour with Mary!

Good for first-time visitors - The Tokyo Small Group Tour with Guide exceeded expectations! Our guide (Coral) was fantastic—extremely knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about sharing Tokyo’s history, culture, and local insights. The itinerary was thoughtfully planned, giving us a well-rounded view of the city. The small group size (7 people) made it feel intimate and allowed for personalized attention and flexibility. The guide’s recommendations for food and shopping were also spot-on. This tour is perfect for first-time visitors or anyone looking to deepen their understanding of Tokyo. I would highly recommend it!

Excellent day tour - Highly recommend this tour. Perfect if you only have a short time in the city and want to see as much as possible. 15km of walking and two train trips over 7 hours. Our guide, Aki, went out of his way to make sure we had a great day. We saw a nice mix of historical, religious and modern day attractions. We learnt a lot about Japanese history and tradition and thoroughly enjoyed the day. Possibly one of the best city walking tours we have done.

Fantastic experience - My gf and I had the pleasure of doing the full day Tokyo tour with Aki in December 2024. Aki was a wonderful guide, perfect English, a font of knowledge and great fun to boot... also a very good photographer, which my gf definitely appreciated and utilised! Logistics were excellent, from initial meet up to navigating around the city and good lunch recommendation. The tour itself was fascinating and being a very small group, Aki was able to show us lots of cool spots we'd never have found on our own. Will recommend to anyone we know coming to Tokyo. Dave and Steph.

A day in Tokyo - Big THANKS to our incredible guide, Aki! He truly made our day in Tokyo unforgettable. Aki took us to so many hidden gems and unexpected places we never would have discovered on our own. Every stop was a delightful surprise, filled with unique charm and history. His deep knowledge of Tokyo’s culture and traditions made each moment even more special. Aki’s friendly and thoughtful approach ensured we had an authentic and memorable experience. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide—thank you, Aki, for showing us the Tokyo we never expected to see!”
