Hello, I’m Riku. Nice to meet you 😊 I was born in South Africa to European parents, grew up in the United States, and have now lived in Japan for over 20 years. At university, I majored in Japanese language and international relations. I am currently a Japanese citizen and have spent most of my time here working as an actor, tour guide, and English teacher. I believe I can offer as much insight into contemporary Japanese culture as anyone. In addition to living and working in Japan, I’ve spent a total of at least eight years backpacking around the world. I love the outdoors, travel, sports, podcasts, books, cooking, guitar, and socializing. I’m a very curious and outgoing person with a strong sense of adventure. I’m particularly interested in Japanese cuisine and contemporary Japanese culture, along with all of its idiosyncrasies. I hope my tours will give you the opportunity to enjoy unique and insightful experiences. I’d be happy to tailor any of my tours to your specific interests.

Overview of your Tokyo tour

This tour is a ‘tabearuki’ tour which is a Japanese custom of going out and walking with friends to many different restaurants in the same night. Shibuya quite large, busy and intimidating to understand without help. In this tour, we will walk around Shibuya and try a variety of Japanese dishes at several vendors throughout the tour. As a Japanese citizen with a Japanese language and culture degree and over 20 years of experience in the Japanese food and entertainment industries, I can confidently answer any questions you could have about Japan.

Your Tokyo tour itinerary

We will meet at Shibuya station at 17:30. Then we will visit around 5 unique restaurants and vendors over the course of 3 hours. At 20:30, I will take you back to Shibuya station. Sometimes the tours can run a little later so please be sure to let me know if you need to leave earlier or exactly on time :) Of course, I would be glad to cater the tour to your individual dietary desires and needs. Please inform me of any such desires, needs and allergies that you have. The customer will be responsible to pay for all restaurant costs including any costs that might incur by me joining (I usually eat a lot less than customers but some restaurants require minimum orders for each customer including me).
