5.00We joined the Akihabara tour as a couple and had a fantastic time. Our guide, Suno, was very kind, intelligent, and incredibly informative. He explained the culture and spots in Akihabara clearly and patiently, making the experience both fun and educational. Thanks to Suno, we were able to enjoy Akihabara much more deeply than we could have on our own. Highly recommended!
Amazing Akihabara Tour with Suno!

5.00I recently took a private tour of Akihabara with a couple of friends from the U.S., and I have to say, Suno made our day absolutely perfect. The tour was completely customized to what we wanted to do and see. Suno was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also knew how to keep the energy high and the atmosphere fun the entire time. I've been in Japan for a while, but I never expected to make such a great friend and have such a memorable day. Thank you so much, Suno, for an unforgettable experience.
Fun tour with fun guide

5.00I had such a great time on the Akihabara tour! Our guide knew so much about anime and gaming, so it felt like exploring the city with a story behind every corner. Visiting a maid café was such a unique experience, and even as a first-timer I felt totally comfortable. The guide also showed us the best spots for shopping, so I picked up some perfect souvenirs. It was the best way to experience both Japanese culture and pop culture all at once!
One of the best days in Japan
