More than the must-sees

In a city known for high-octane portside entertainment, a futuristic skyline, and a ramen museum, Yokohama is a slice of modern-day Japan. But what most visitors don’t know is that the city is also home to centuries-old Japanese-Western fusion cuisine, low-key jazz bars, and the forgotten mansions of Western diplomats. The local guides who plan our diverse range of private tours in Yokohama have left no stone in their hometown unturned, and they can’t wait to share the hidden gems and local haunts with travelers like you. Feel the true spirit of the city on our private Yokohama tours.

A day your way

Everyone’s list of must-sees in Yokohama looks a little different. One traveler’s ideal Yokohama private tours might be a discovery of ancient architecture or fantastic food, while another may be looking for an unforgettable night at a trendy izakaya or karaoke bar. That’s why no two private tours in Yokohama with City Unscripted are the same. Our local hosts work with you to create an itinerary that is perfectly structured around your interests and passions, so you won’t have to waste a second of your time on experiences you won’t absolutely love. Let’s make your dream day come true!

See the city like a local

It’s no secret that there are too many attractions to squeeze into full-day Yokohama private tours. From Japan’s biggest Chinatown to the futuristic Minato Mirai entertainment district, Yokohama’s diverse list must-sees can suck you in for weeks on end. But step off the tourist trail, and private Yokohama walking tours can reveal a totally different side to the city. From exploring lantern-lit nightlife in hidden Noge to slurping Yokohama soup noodles at a hole-in-the-wall restaurant without an English menu in sight, Yokohama for locals is vastly different to the visitors’ version!

Latest reviews from our guests

We had a wonderful 4 hour tour with our guide Estela covering as many of the main attractions of the city as we could driving the time we had. Thoroughly enjoyed our day- the waterfront area, the spectacular garden show going on, other gardens throughout the city, Chinatown, shopping areas and other sights we were able to get to! Enjoyed learning the history of some of the buildings and areas. Highly recommend this tour and our very sweet and awesome tour guide!

Our tour was a wonderful introduction to Yokohama. Our guide, Mr. Hiroshi Kawano, was in contact with us prior to tour date and we planned our chosen itinerary together. The restaurant suggested for lunch was another perfect and unique taste of sashimi, sushi and more that we will remember forever! Food is a very big part of travel to different countries and our walk and tastings in the local market was perfect.
