At Japan Guide Agency, we are happy to provide this customizable, private guided tour with a vehicle! Visit the Thunder Gate of Asakusa with its giant paper lantern for the feel of old Tokyo. Enjoy the tranquility of Meiji Jingu Shrine, an oasis of centuries old trees that has found itself right next to the pop culture fashion hotspot of Harajuku. Hungry? Head to Tsukuishima to enjoy Tokyo’s original dish, monjayaki! Your licensed guide and driver will ensure you enjoy your personalized tour. Choose 3 to 4 spots from ‘Tour Details’ to visit. Don't know where to go? Ask the guide to send you their recommendations. We hope to guide you soon! Maximum 15 participants per tour.

“The Perfect Day in Tokyo Thanks to Julie!”

We had the most incredible day in Tokyo with our tour guide Julie! From the moment we met her, she was warm, knowledgeable, fun, and made the entire experience unforgettable. She shared so much history and local insight while also making everything feel relaxed and enjoyable. Because of Julie, we were able to see so many amazing places in one perfect day, including Meiji Jingu, Harajuku, Omotesando, Tokyo Imperial Palace, Tsukiji Outer Market, and Asakusa. Every stop was thoughtfully planned, and Julie made sure we experienced the culture, food, history, and beauty of Tokyo in such a special way. She was incredibly informative, answered every question, and kept us laughing all day long. We truly could not have asked for a better guide or a better experience. If you are visiting Tokyo, spending the day with Julie will absolutely be one of the highlights of your trip!

We had a lovely day in tokyo. We were delighted we had our guide kenzo because we could not have done it on our own. Tokyo is so big and we had limited time so our guide took us to see the main places we wanted to visit.

Adler Family Tour

Our tour with Masa was incredible and filled with interesting facts and history, he gave us incredible insight on each location. We loved that we were able to choose 3-4 sites from a large selection and really spend enough time at each spot. Masa was kind and knowledgable and even helped us with a restaurant reservation for later in the evening when were unable to find one.

Operator response

I thank you very much for your so kind review. And I am very happy for you to have pleasant time on that day. I have also enjoyed the conversation and jokes with you in the tour. I learned you have more than enough and accurate knowledge about Japan’s history, culture, social problems, and how it is going. Anyhow, I feel relieved that you had enjoyed the stay in Tokyo. If possible, I would take you to explore the other regions when you come back to Japan again and let’s have a great time. sincerely, Masa

Convenient way with historic reference to site seeing

Our guide Mr. Yoshi was friendly, and informative. His knowledge of history and area was impressive. Made the tour so much better than just visiting these locations. He also gave us tips on food, places to visit. He was flexible in creating the itinerary and during the tour. We wanted to go sushi place instead of ramen place. He not only found one but also made reservation for us. I would definitely recommend him.

Operator response

Thank you so much for your kind review. I was so happy to read it. I myself really enjoyed the tour with you all and lunch at a revolving sushi restaurant! Hope you had a great time thereafter in Tokyo and other area in Japan. Thank you again, from your guide Yoshi.
