HELLO! Tokyo TOURS

We are specialised in private tours and small group tours in Tokyo. All of our tours combine Tokyo’s ‘must-see sights’ with hidden gems and back streets. Our tours are culturally immersive walking tours, meaning that you will travel around Tokyo on foot and using the excellent public transport system - like a local! BUT… we do also do tours in private cars for those that prefer to travel in air-conditioned comfort! Throughout the tour, you will learn about Tokyo’s culture, customs, history and the local way of life. Feeling hungry? We’ll get you eating like a local too!
