Enjoy an efficient, one-day tour of Tokyo accompanied by a government-licensed and experienced English Speaking guide! Your guide will introduce both modern and traditional aspects of this dynamic city.

Due to the enormous size of Tokyo, one of the largest metropolitan areas in the world, a one-day tour would probably focus on one small area, which would still leave you in awe at the scale of the city. Tokyo is where you can experience both modern and traditional, and your experienced private guide will help you efficiently enjoy a full day in this dynamic Japanese capital. Let us know what you would like to experience, and we will customize a six-hour tour that's best for you!

Wonderful introduction to Tokyo. We saw many highlights and were able to navigate the subway and city after this walking tour. Koba was our guide and he was amazing!! We saw shrines, temples the Emperor’s palace and were able to customize to see specific areas like Harajuku. Would definitely recommend!

Our guide, Show, was great! We communicated weeks before the tour started and he put together a detailed itinerary based on what I said we'd like to see. We covered so many different areas of the city, which we absolutely could not have done on our own. We did this our first full day in Tokyo, which was nice because we really got a feel for the city and learned to use the subway. Show spoke great English, so we could ask questions easily throughout our tour. We actually ended up finishing everything on our itinerary about 30 minutes early, so Show proposed taking us to see Akihabara which wasn't on our list of places to see. We would have been content with finishing early, but we appreciated the commitment to keep showing us around. He also helped us get a table at a restaurant at the end of the tour, which was nice as we weren't fully comfortable yet on our first day. Overall it was a great tour! We found it well worth it based on the amount of the city we were able to cover and the explanations Show provided as he was guiding us.

We had been to Tokyo once before, but wanted to explore it more thoroughly with a private guide – Mura was just wonderful! He took us all over the city and we had a wonderful time learning more about Japanese culture and way of life-Tokyo is an amazing city, and we also definitely try to return – if we do, I would definitely try to do another tour with Mura!!
A great overview of Tokyo…don’t hesitate!

A was an excellent, thorough guide, and we truly enjoyed our time with her seeing some of the sights of Tokyo. I would highly, highly recommend her for your Tokyo tour. We saw everything we wanted to see, and we even got to enjoy a terrific lunch at a local spot. Don’t hesitate to book this tour!

Our guide, Mr. Yorshi, is very friendly and well informed. We planned multiple itinerarirs together in advance via email and allow our tour participants to choose. During the tour Mr. Yorshi refined the itinerary based on the traffic conditions and added an additional stop for viewing the high tech wash rooms. You have to see them to believe. He also extended the allotted time and guided us to the final stop for more touring on our own.
