Tokyo guided tour

Published on Dec, 2024

Kieran guided us through some interesting "off the beaten trail" places in Tokyo. Delightful and informative experience. Get ready to walk fast when with Kieran.

True professional.

She met and exceeded all expectations. We had an unforgettable day. Job well done, we’ll definitely recommend her to all.

Great Introduction to Tokyo

Published on Dec, 2024

Noah did a great job showing us his city and giving timely insight to places, history, and current context.

Most friendly tour around Tokyo

Published on Dec, 2024

It was a really chill and friendly tour around the landmarks of Tokyo, Shuto proved knowledgable and very adaptive to our interests. It's not the usual tour where the guide will walk you down the same streets and tells the standard stories, it will be an interactive experiences, and by the end of it you will feel like knowing Shuto since forever. Thank you!

A perfect private tour!

Published on Dec, 2024

My husband and I booked this private tour with a request to see modern architecture in Tokyo. Alberto was our guide and he was exceptional! After spending the entire day before in an airplane, we welcomed the walking we did to three of the wards in Tokyo. Alberto pointed out many incredible buildings along the way and took us to a few rooftops to enjoy the beautiful views. Alberto went above and beyond in sending us a list of all of the names of places we saw. (I like to keep a journal and this helped tremendously!). Thank you!!
