Overview of your Tokyo tour
If you want to see Tokyo of your interest with a personal guide, this is the one! I was born in Yamaguchi Prefecture which is locate in the west of Japan but have lived in Tokyo for a long time. I still remember how thrilled I was when I started living in Tokyo. I love Tokyo because this city has always excited me. There are so many places you want to see in Tokyo, but your time is limited. So I listen to where you want to go and what you want to do, and then create a tailor-made tour especially for you. Different start time, tour duration, a number of people, or private transportation is also available. Let's fave fun in your original Tokyo tour!

My wife and I had a 6 hour tour with Yuko G and we were very impressed with her knowledge of the city and how she personalized our tour to our needs. We would highly recommend her to anyone visiting Tokyo!
Steve A.United States
My wife and I and another couple we are traveling with spent all day Sunday touring Tokyo with our private guide, Yuko Goto. Yuko spoke great English, having learned much of it during her prior career as a flight attendant. We rode all over the city in Tokyo's incredible and huge subway system. During all these rides, Yuko made sure we didn't get separated and filled us in on what we would be seeing next. We visited Buddhist and Shinto shrines , beautiful gardens, the Ginza shopping district, saw a Shinto wedding and even walked through the most phenomenal food court I have even seen. Tokyo is an incredible city with the most polite and service-oriented people you could ever imagine. It was made even more enjoyable by spending a number of hours with Yuko that ended much too soon! Since our time with her ended, she has spent many more minutes communicating with me via WhatsApp with advice on additional places to see on our own and how best to do that without any difficulty.
Heather C.United States
Yuko was very personable and helped us to navigate the city using the subway. She was also very patient with our baby's needs.
