"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!

Incredible guided shopping tour through Akihabara

5.00Yuuki took us on an amazing tour through Akihabara and ensured each member of our family found special items we wanted. For the kids, Yuuki helped with anime cards and figurines, manga, and toys that are special and they will treasure forever. We never would have found these on our own and he helped get us directly to the right places in the stores. We would have been totally lost and overwhelmed otherwise! Then he took us to a whiskey and specialty food spot, followed by a shopping street where my mom and I found unique chopsticks and tapestry to take home beautiful artwork. Yuuki made the day an absolute highlight of an already incredible trip to Japan. Thank you, Yuuki!
Interesting details

5.00I wildly enjoyed the tour from Yuka! He's got a good grasp of Anima and has told us a lot of interesting things about Japanese otaku life. For example, when their taste changes, there are special shops where you can sell your merch.
An absolutely fantastic tour!

5.00I joined this tour alone and enjoyed it a lot. Yuuki-san was a very good listener, and also very good at talking and explaining things. He understood well what wanted to see, and he chose the best places for me. I felt he really analyzed my interests and made the tour special. I also liked that Yuuki-san communicated with me sincerely and always faced me with a warm attitude. I felt very comfortable during the whole tour. I’m very happy I joined this tour. I really recommend it!
Great tour with a knowledgeable guide!

5.00I had an excellent day with Yuuki-san, he helped me find my way through stores that I would have been lost searching through without him. This was the perfect tour for someone trying to find that hard to find item or place. I will not hesitate to book a tour again if I ever get back. Thank You Yuuki

5.00Amazing experience for my first time in Japan! Yuki was an incredible guide — friendly, knowledgeable, and truly passionate about anime and retro culture. He showed us awesome hidden spots, classic anime locations, and vintage shops I never would’ve found on my own. If you love anime or just want a unique Japan experience, this tour is a must. Thanks, Yuki!
Time of our LIVES!

5.00Do yourself a favor... And IMMEDIATELY book this tour with Yuki! This was our first time in Tokyo, and my husband is a huge anime fan so we knew that we wanted an expert to show us around Akihabara. Our main goal was that we wanted find the best spots for anime figurine shopping, and play arcade games... And Yuki showed us the best spots around! We bought so much, he even helped us find a good place to buy a suitcase and helped us pack up all of our gear. He was SO much fun, and we agreed that we'll show him around Seattle when he comes out our way. Thank you for such a fun tour -- ありがとうございました!

5.00Yuuki is an incredibly friendly and engaging tour guide! He has a vast knowledge of Otaku and anime culture, and is a great conversationalist. He really cares to know what interests you have, and knows exactly spots to bring folks for certain fandoms, or just seeing interesting sights!
