Overview

Allow your host to introduce you to the quirky underbelly of one of the world’s most wonderful and outlandish cities as you go to places like Harajuku, home of all things kawaii, or the quirky, otaku districts like Akihabara. Head to a themed Owl café where you can cuddle up to a feathery friend over coffee, or try an eccentric drink at Alice in Wonderland Café. Round off your time in Omoide Yokocho (aka Piss Alley) which, despite its misleading name, is actually a super eccentric alleyway home to many izakaya pubs! After booking, you'll receive a short questionnaire about your personality and interests. Based on your responses, you'll be assigned a like-minded host who will suggest a personalized itinerary to your taste and requests.

So great and thanks so much

Published on Nov, 2024

What a great tour! The host was friendly, knowledgeable, and really took the time to show me some amazing and unique places! I loved seeing Harajuku and the robot cafe!!! So wonderful to spend time with a local!

Worth it!

Hiroko was amazing! We had the best experience. She was extremely informative, flexible and kind. 12 out of 10!

Highly recommend

Published on Jan, 2020

We loved our tour. Saya, our guide, was lovely and really helped us understand how to navigate the city using the transport systems. We were overwhelmed by the transport system but after spending the afternoon with Saya we were confident to do it by ourselves. Saya picked a delicious meal for us, which catered for my vegetarian diet, and showed us some interesting places across Tokyo. We would definitely recommend this tour for other newbies to Japan.
