Exploring a new city can be daunting but with one of our hosts by your side you will soon feel at home. Tokyo has so much to offer but how can you discover it when you can’t read the street names and you’re not sure how the subway works? Never fear! Your host is here to help you feel at ease. Once you’ve found your feet, you’ll be ready to step out on your own and navigate the sprawling metropolis like a savvy local.

Within 24 hours after booking you'll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, you'll be assigned a like-minded host. Your host will communicate with you directly to suggest an itinerary to help you discover what makes the city unique. You will also agree on a meeting time and place. Your itinerary is flexible, so during the experience, you can always change your mind about what you want to do.

Reviews

Mark is an excellent host & tour guide!!
Jamison_J, 04-01-2023
Mark was an excellent host & tour guide- we had a nice walk in the brisk evening air as he shared some of the sights & his knowledge about living in Japan for twenty years as a British citizen with a Japanese wife- great perspective & insights - great way to see the area during my 12 hour layover. He was flexible as my plane landed a little late & I wasn’t sure how long customs would take. He met me at my hotel near the statue of the haichimoku the loyal dog,

Michael was a great tour guide! Knowledgeable catered to our needs and enjoyable to talk with. Highly recommend. When we visit again we would love him to accompany us on our next adventure.
Great Intro

Royce personalized our tour to accommodate my son’s request to show me Akihabara. Although we could have navigated the train system ourselves it was nice not to have to waste time doing that since Royce knew exactly how to get there. He also showed us a retro gaming store which made my son incredibly happy. So many “maids” on the streets even Royce was amazed. Nice walk through Ueno Park (all museums closed due to Coronavirus) but there is much to see anyway. The Ameyoko market is quite a sight to see and I know my son will return after I leave Tokyo. I can return to the museums when they open later this month:) great afternoon!
Nice tour

I really enjoyed the tour with Jeff and appreciated his time and explanations of what we walked by. Most of it, I'm sure I would have skipped over without him.
