Tour Summaries

Tokyo Essentials

A private, all-in-one day that mixes food, neighborhoods, major sights, and the small details of daily Tokyo life. Perfect if you want to see a lot, taste a lot, and get a real feel for the city without rushing.

Tokyo Together

A private day designed for intergenerational groups — grandparents, parents, teens, and kids — to enjoy Tokyo comfortably together. You visit easy, interesting spots with simple navigation, plenty of breaks, and room for everyone to enjoy the day at their own pace without splitting up.

ordinary tokyo

A slower, local-focused walk through the neighborhoods where Tokyoites actually live. Good if you want to understand how the city works day-to-day — markets, small shops, side streets, and real community spaces.

infinite tokyo

A fully custom day built around what you care about most — food, culture, neighborhoods, or anything else. Best if you want the guide to design a day that fits your interests, energy, and timing perfectly.

Tokyo trifecta

A private 4-hour half-day tour focused on three very different sides of Tokyo — the peaceful shrines of old Tokyo, the bold youth culture of Harajuku and Shibuya, and the neon-lit nightlife of Shinjuku. Ideal if you want a quick but meaningful experience that captures Tokyo’s variety without committing to a full day.

Timeless tokyo

A relaxed private day exploring Tokyo’s heritage—temples, historic neighborhoods and hidden gardens—ideal for travelers who prefer fewer crowds, meaningful context, and a gentler pace.

kushiyaki confidential

A private 6-hour food tour diving into Tokyo’s smoky grill culture—from Shibuya alleys to Nakameguro backstreets. Ideal for food-curious travelers who want small plates, hidden izakayas, craft sake, and a local guide who knows where the locals eat.

standing room only

A 4-hour private evening out through Tokyo’s standing bars and off-beat izakayas in Suginami Ward. Perfect for adventurous eaters who want to experience Tokyo nightlife like a local—no formal restaurants, just real flavor and informal fun.
