Hello! I'm Leandra, and I'm stoked to be your guide as we dive into Japan. With seven years under my belt living here, I've become your trusted source for all things related to exploring this amazing country. Whether it's navigating the bustling city streets or trekking through scenic nature trails, I've got you covered.
I have extensive experience guiding excursions through mountains, inner city hidden gems, underground music scenes, and scenic day trips in the vicinity of Tokyo. When I'm not guiding, you can catch me indulging in my hobbies of digging into Japanese history, hitting up local shrines, lacing up my running shoes for a jog, scouting out new restaurants, or hitting the trails for a hike.
Originally from sunny SoCal, my roots stretch back to both Japanese and Mexican heritage, with a sprinkle of samurai lineage thrown in for good measure.
So, if you're ready to dive into the real Japan, away from the tourist traps, join me for an adventure you won't soon forget. Let's do this!
On Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays I am only available for evening tours from 18:00.
Leandra was an absolute gem—knowledgeable, sweet, and simply amazing. While we strayed a bit from our planned itinerary, we were thrilled when she recommended visiting the Enoshima caves, as it turned out to be a breathtaking experience. Her communication skills were excellent; she not only assisted us in finding great places for lunch and dinner but also made reservations and helped us with entrance tickets and logistics. Leandra excels in her role, and we would be delighted to have her as our guide again in the future.
Leandra was a wonderful guide. I only had 8 hours to tour Tokyo. I gave her my list of things I wanted to see and do and we completed the entire list! I was delighted with the tour and will recommend her to all my friends when they travel to Tokyo! She was also very pleasant to be around.
