"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!

5.00What a great afternoon! Our guide Yuuki took time to personalize the afternoon for us to go around and do the things that were important to us and our son. We only had three hours before we had to move onto something else, but he made the most of our time. He took us to grab some lunch at a great place and then showed us so much of the anime and gaming area. He took time to play some video games with us and take our son to a car shop so that he could pick out specific Pokémon cards he was looking for and helped him acquire those. he also made sure we were able to hit the shopping locations that had the specific items her son was looking for. At the end of our tour he made sure we were in a taxi, headed to the correct destination. Thank you for a wonderful afternoon that checked all our boxes.

5.00Yuuki is amazing at crafting the perfect tour for your interests. He knows the best places to go based upon which anime or games you prefer. He also helped us shop and find many things only sold in Japan. He is an excellent guide and his English is very strong. He even takes pictures and videos which he sends you at the end of the tour. If you like Anime and gaming, I can’t recommend this tour enough.
Perfect private tour!!!

5.00This was a fantastic experience! Tailored to our special needs and whatever truly interested us - especially my son. He actually commented about how we were surrounded by “fellow nerds” haha. Tokyo can be overwhelming and having this time was such a load off my shoulders from having to figure it out on my own. I was just as excited as my kid to see merchandise of all our favorite anime characters!
Excellent tour, Yuuki's a real pro!

5.00Yuuki was great, a real pro! He scoped out itinerary ideas beforehand, spent time in an initial meeting to figure out our priorities, and was helpful and informative throughout. His English was excellent, and his knowledge of the subject was extensive. He also spent extra time to maximize the trip experience. Nothing but positives and praise -- ARIGATO!!!

5.00Yuuki did an amazing job as my guide. He showed me the best stores to get anime merch for my favorite characters and went above and beyond to help me look for the exact items I was looking for. He also showed me a really good restaurant for omurice and bar too. I am definitely recommend this tour for people who are new to Akihabara.

5.00Amazing tour with Yuuki—definitely a highlight of our Tokyo trip. Super friendly, super knowledgeable, and made everything feel personalized and easy. Felt more like exploring with a friend than a tour. If you’re into anime or gaming, this is a must. Thanks again Yuuki! 🙌🔥
An amazing experience all around!

5.00Simply one of the most amazing tour guides I’ve had the pleasure of working with. Yuuki is generous with his time , customizes your experience even as you are on the tour. Timely, communicative and such a gentleman. We had an amazing day experiencing anime, manga culture. He even made a side trip to a. Artisan craft store based on our comments .
Enjoyed the world of anime in Akihabara!

5.00I’ve been to Akihabara many times, but this time I’ve enjoyed a completely different “otaku world”, in a good way! I really enjoyed it even if I didn't know much about anime, and it was great that they taught me about various old and new works in an easy-to-understand way! I was always excited from start to finish as I was guided to some deep spots that I would never get to on my own. They showed us lunch and other meals smoothly after hearing our preferences, and I was impressed by their attention to detail. The Yuki-san Anime Teacher tour is not just a sightseeing experience, it is a memorable one! I really recommend this for those who want to enjoy Akihabara more deeply!
I had a very satisfying purchase

5.00It was such a fun tour♪ Yuki knew many different shops in Akihabara and showed us around a few that carried character goods we were looking for. And the place where I ended up buying it was also special, and I was impressed by the amount of information. In the meantime, we had a fulfilling few hours exploring the city's history and old neighborhoods. Our 9-year-old son looked satisfied!
