"It's my first time visiting Akihabara, but I have no idea how to have real experiences I saw in anime..."
"I really wanna have an Akiba experience but I'm running out of time..."
"There's something I wanna get, but have no idea how/where to buy..."
For those who have such demands, I offer the tour that you can finish within 5 hours!
After meeting at JR Akihabara station and a short introduction, we'll go around places.
As a native Japanese Otaku, I'm sure that I can give you the right information related to Akihabara.
Also, we'll go to a maid cafe that I recommend the most out of 10 kinds of maid cafes I experienced in Akihabara, which is not well-known but is a must-see in my opinion!
I recommend you prepare some wishlists of what you're looking for/where you want to go, so I can arrange the tour as you'd like!

5.00Yuki is a terrific guide. Knowledgeable, kind, friendly, funny. Although this tour was booked with my 20’s son’s enjoyment in mind, Yuki made absolutely sure that I had fun too and I really did. Yuki brought carefully chosen surprise gifts that delighted my son, a fan of survival horror games, before we headed out to a fully customized tour in the Akihabara District that encompassed anime and gaming in multiple ways. Some of the highlights were book and DVD stores, a huge capsule vending machine area with a fun drumming game, conveyor belt sushi by our request, walking around the lively Akihabara area and hearing more about the culture, strolling through many interesting stores including a food store with items from all the 47 Japanese provinces and ending up in a free video game bar. Wonderful! Yuki took many photos and video of us, something I often fail to do and even printed out a business card sized collage of the highlights at the end. My late husband worked in the anime field writing English language scripts and Yuki searched out manga versions of some of those shows, so it was especially meaningful for us to get to have those. Yuki really goes above and beyond. Since the tour is so fully customizable, he will have you covered, regardless of your interests. An unforgettable experience, I highly recommend doing this!
Best tour I've had!

5.00Yuuki was an amazing guide, easily the highlight of my trip. I had a great time: I found some hololive and anime merch i can't find back home, got to experience some great omurice i wouldn't have found on my own, and I had fun at the arcade and maid cafe. Highly recommend for anime and hololive fans!
Great tour!

5.00Yuuki is a very good guide who adapts the tour according to our desires and provides us with plenty of anecdotes about Akihabara and how the different shops work. We ended the visit with a drink during which we had the opportunity to discuss in particular about work in Japan and even politics. A great guide that we highly recommend!
An extraordinary visit

5.00I had such an amazing time on this anime tour in Akihabara with Yuuki-sensei! He is incredibly knowledgeable about anime, and it was so fun to geek out together while exploring the area. Time really flew by because I was enjoying it so much. If you’re looking for an anime tour in Tokyo, I truly recommend this one!

5.00Excellent personalised tour of Akihabara with Yukki (the anime ShiSho) who knew all the quirky, interesting places to visit! Honestly one of the best Airbnb tours I have been on, and couldn't recommend him for his friendly attitude. He even taught me many Japanese words during our tour ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
It was really a series of discoveries, learnings and inspirations.

5.00I had visited a few shops in Akihabara, but after participating in this tour, I was captivated by Yuki's broad and deep knowledge and explanation skills, and he explained the highlights and ways to enjoy all the shops he introduced me to in an easy-to-understand manner. The next time I go to Akihabara, I think I can enjoy it in a new way. Yuki's guide is the highest level of entertainment to suit the person!
