Excellent guide

Our day with Akira for my family of four was excellent. Akira took us to districts and places we would have never gone on our own. His helpful knowledge and stories allowed us to visit Tokyo on our own afterwards with a lot more confidence. Akira was able to modify our plans on the fly as well to accommodate our kids and how they were enjoying the trip. We returned to the places he shared with us a couple times as they were some of the highlights of our trip. Thank you Akira for a great day.

Tokyo on a Sunday...

Akira-san was a great guide. We reorganized our agenda somewhat on the fly due to rain and were able to see the sites that were most important to us. He helped us get well acquainted with the public transport system (which is a better way to see how Tokyo operates) and was knowledgeable and a delight to spend time with. We would highly recommend Akira to both first timers and repeat visitors. Domo Akira-san

Great experience of Tokyo

We had an excellent time with Akira. His customized tour was perfect to fit our interest. We not only were able to visit two major temple and shrines, but also experienced off the beaten path places and experience some local culture. Thanks for making our tour so special. Your insights were priceless.

Akira N.

Hello Natasha, Thank you so much for the great review. It makes me smile when I see the pictures that I took at the fruit shop on that day. You enjoyed exchanging with locals (yes, the real one) and enjoyed local fruits including some treats from the grandma from the shop. Happy smiles and laughters are roaming in the place. Thank you so much for another moment to make me feel that I am so happy to be a guide. I hope you enjoy the rest of your Japan trip. See you next time! Akira
