Hello! I'm Mariana, and I'm a proud local host here in Tokyo. If you're looking for someone who knows this city inside and out, then you've come to the right place! I'm an expert on the vibrant neighborhoods of Harajuku, Shibuya, Ueno, and Nippori, and I'm always on the lookout for new and exciting things to do and see. What I love most about Tokyo is its perfect blend of Southeast Asian food, art, and the changing seasons. Whether you're a foodie, an art lover, or just someone who enjoys soaking up the local culture, Tokyo has something for everyone. In my free time, you can find me hanging out with friends, attending events and art shows, or simply taking a leisurely walk around the city. As a passionate art enthusiast, I'm especially knowledgeable about the art scene in Tokyo, and I would be thrilled to share my insider tips with you. So if you're looking for a friendly local guide to show you around and help you experience the best of Tokyo, look no further! I can't wait to share this incredible city with you.

Our guide, Mariana, spent a full day showing us around Asakusa, akihabara, and the Tokyo sky tree area, with shopping detours along the way and a nice trip to Senso-Ji. She was great and we had a wonderful time. She also made reservations at a tasty sushi restaurant and took us to some vintage arcades for my video-game loving husband. We would have never found these gems on our own and we're super thankful for her! Her recommendations for restaurants after our trip were also on point. Thank you, Mariana, for your attention to detail and your upbeat, friendly energy!

She was fantastic! We changed the tour to be a Tokyo tour instead of Hakone per my request, and she was a lovely guide. Very knowledgeable and really friendly, and she took me all over to great spots I never would have found on my own. I was so impressed! I would recommend her gladly!

Mariana fue una excelente guia. Nosotros llenamos el cuestionario y al conocernos ella cambio el tour para hacernos pasar un dia a lo japones con un entusiasmo latino sin igual. Definitivamente recomendamos a Mariana como guia. Mariana was an excellent guide. We filled out the questionnaire and upon meeting us she changed the tour to make us spend a Japanese day with unparalleled Latin enthusiasm. We definitely recommend Mariana as a guide.
