Mari was so kind and thoughtful-she helped a large group with two seniors navigate Shibuya. She also tailored part of the tour around the group's love of anime. She helped everyone find their feet in Tokyo and even took some great group photos.

Hi there! I'm Mari, a Tokyo enthusiast. My passion for travel has led me to live in the US, Canada, and Australia, but my heart always brings me back to Tokyo. From the enchanting cherry blossoms to the captivating world of animation, there's no end to the wonders of this city. I'm a devout foodie, convinced that Japanese cuisine is the world's best, and I never tire of uncovering new delightful spots. Having roamed Tokyo's neighborhoods since childhood (and yes, that includes countless trips to Tokyo Disneyland in Chiba!), I'm eager to share its secrets with fellow adventurers like you. Dive into Tokyo's magic with me! All my tours can be customized upon request according to your group size or interests. Feel free to message me. I work in a team and the account manager named Kenji will send you the first contact. So don't be surprised! Certified itinerary control manager I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.

Embark on an adventure through the vibrant heart of Tokyo's fashion and culture - Shibuya. Our guided tour will take you on a journey along the chic boutiques of Omotesando Avenue, the trendsetting wonderland of Harajuku, and the hidden backstreets where iconic brands like BAPE first emerged. Make sure not to overlook Takeshita Street in Harajuku, a whimsical realm filled with boutique gems, street art, and a celebration of pop culture. Dive into the latest Tokyo trends at the Nintendo Store, Pokémon Center, and "Mandarake" for anime treasures. Treat your taste buds to diverse ramen options on Shibuya Center Street. Take a moment to soak in the atmosphere at Miyashita Park's rooftop and enjoy a cup of Sarutahiko Coffee. Immerse yourself in the rich Shinto culture at the Meiji Shrine. And, of course, pay a visit to Shibuya's iconic symbol - the bronze Hachiko statue. This is your ticket to a Tokyo experience like no other.

Mari was amazing as our tour guide for our family of 5 including a 3 yo in a stroller. I’m so glad we did the tour on our first day, as Mari taught us a lot about getting around and gave us lots of tips specific to our young family. A magical first day in the sunshine in Tokyo, thanks again Mari!
We loved it! Had a great time and saw things that we would never have known about if we went on our own. Mari is a special person and has a great personality. In the end a tour is a lot about have a feeling like you spent the day with a good friend. That is what Mari created for us.
We had a really good time with Mari. She is really the best! She was able to support special food allergy requirements for us. She was great with our teen boys as well and explained everything really well. This was our first trip to Japan and she explained the basics of food and public transport also really well to help with our remainder of the trip. We will definitely look for her again when we come back to Japan.
Mari is amazing. Right away she feels like a long time friend that knows everything about Tokyo. She will take you to local spots for the best food. I highly recommend Mari.

We could feel her heart and love for Tokyo which was infectious. We are so grateful we chose Mari. Our time in Tokyo is forever memorable!❤️
