Overview

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!

What airport layover?!

5.0My husband and I were able to leave the airport during a 13 hour layover at Haneda airport. This tour made the best of our time seeing the top 4 sites we didn’t want to miss in Tokyo. Our guide, Andy was the best. We had an amazing day.
Great and necessary intro to the city

5.0Takes-san was an exceptional host to Tokyo, willing to customize our introduction to the city and share his deep knowledge of history, culture, and day to day activities. Great orientation and we’d do it again!

5.0Shuji made the itinerary customized to my interests perfectly. I enjoyed every place we went, and learned a lot about Japanese culture, history and folk tales. It was a fun day! Shuji was also nice enough to accompany me back to my hotel after the tour, which I really appreciated - totally worry free.
12/10! You won't be disappointed!

5.0We had fun with our guide Kenji-san. We went to couple of temples and popular streets. We learned a lot of the history as well as the traditions. Kenji-san came ready with stories and kept the conversation flowing. Highly recommended! Especially for first-timers who have never doven into the fabric of Japan. Also lot of walking was involved.
Great Day 1 “Starter-Kit” in Tokyo with Nobu!

5.0This was the first tour we took - a day after a 14.5 hour direct flight to Tokyo — and, it was a perfect way to start our 10-day trip. Nobu was our guide and he met us at our hotel. He curated the 6 hour day based on our preferences for sites to see and we kicked off the day t the Hamarikyu Gardens next to our hotel in Ginza. We visited Asakusa, Senso-ji Temple, the Imperial Palace (although the grounds were closed for tours), Shibuya Crossing, Takeshita Street and Meiji Jingu Shrine. And, we had a delightful, causal Ramen lunch and the Asahi beer hit the spot after walking for several hours. Nobu was knowledgeable about every part of the city we toured; he kept a causal but intentional pace to make sure we checked everything off our list; he was kind and enjoyable conversation. And, perhaps the most important — he helped us to get our overall bearings in this massive city and he helped us to navigate the trains/stations — so much so that what we learned on Day 1 with Nobu we applied every day thereafter. We highly recommend this tour as a “starter-kit” for Tokyo and we recommend Nobu as the guide!
