We had a great day exploring Tokyo with Aiko. She shared the proposed itinerary with us before the tour and was happy to adjust it so we could move slowly and really experience the city our way. Throughout the day, she made sure we were comfortable and suggested some really nice stops along the way. We love nature, so she took us through some beautiful parks and local neighbourhoods we wouldn’t have found on our own. It was great walking through the streets of Tokyo with someone who truly knows the city. We learned so much, not only about the culture and landmarks, but also about everyday life in Japan. Can’t recommend this tour enough.
Our guide, Yuki, was friendly and easy to spend the day with. We booked this tour at the beginning of our trip to get a better sense of Tokyo, and it was a really good decision. My husband and I wanted to focus on traditional places, so she adjusted the route to include temples and shrines. Sensō-ji Temple was lively and full of energy, while Meiji Shrine felt calm and peaceful, which made a nice contrast. Having someone explain what we were seeing helped us understand and enjoy everything more. We also had time to shop for souvenirs, take lots of photos, and enjoy a nice lunch together. Great sightseeing tour and definitely worth the money.

Did you know that Shibuya Crossing is one of the busiest crossings in the world?
- When the lights change, up to 2,500 people can cross at the same time from all directions.
- Shibuya Crossing is a famous example of a “scramble crossing.” It means that all traffic stops completely, and pedestrians move freely in every direction.
- Despite the crowds, collisions are rare, and most people cross without bumping into each other. Locals are used to the flow and move almost instinctively.
