Get ready for a one-of-a-kind exploration of Tokyo, landmarks and /or far from the typical tourist trail. What makes this experience unique is my extensive network of alliances with local shopkeepers, artisans, and hidden-gem establishments. Together, we’ll step into the everyday lives of Tokyo’s locals.

Expect warm conversations, hands-on experiences, and an insider’s perspective on the culture that thrives in Tokyo’s neighborhoods. I’ll ensure you feel comfortable and supported as we navigate new customs and experiences.

The vast urban playground of Metropolitan Tokyo is brimming with surprises that can’t be found in any guidebook. Come with curiosity and leave with not just photographs, but authentic stories and unforgettable bonds with the people and places we encounter. Let’s create memories that will remain as vivid as the city itself!

Nakano Broadway nostalgic memorabilia

Shino brought us to vintage anime heaven! Friends back home in the Philippines were jealous that we got to explore Nakano broadway. I was so awed that some shops sold original cells from animations like Ghost in the Shell, Ghibli movies, Sailor Moon, among others, and that they cost millions of yen! So many collectible toys and cards and books. You can literally spend hours here just looking at nostalgic memorabilia. Shino is a lovely host and my husband I are happy we got to go on this tour with her!
The best tour!

What a relaxing and fun day! I really appreciated my time with the tour. Shino was so kind and helpful showing us around. She was also very knowledgeable of the area and was more than willing to answer any questions we might’ve had. If you’re looking for a fun way to explore the city I highly recommend this tour! A great way to create memories and also enjoy good company.

Everyone goes to Akihabara but fewer go to Nakano, and I’m glad we went. Shino was very kind and a great conversationalist. She was very laid back and we ended up talking about a lot of things about her culture for which I was pleasantly surprised. She showed us lots of little gems of Nakano in the market and gave us great food recommendations. I thought the food options around there were solid and they seemed more affordable. We shared food/drinks with her (on her) and it was one of the more memorable experiences we had on our tours. Wish we had more time to explore Nakano. I definitely recommend this tour with her!
Highly recommend

My family and I were looking for a tour that was off the beaten path. Nakano isn’t an area you typically hear about when people visit but it’s definitely a gem. Shino is very friendly and knowledgeable about the area. She recommended some great eateries in Nakano as well as places close to where we were staying. You can find so many vintage collectables walking through the four story building. There is a little for everyone. Our family preferred this over the busy Akihabara. Before leaving, make sure to check out the food on the basement level! I have no complaints and highly recommend this tour.
