Hey there, I'm Ack, your local host here in the heart of Tokyo! One thing I adore about Tokyo is its constant energy and ever-changing fashion scene. It's like the city never sleeps! And let me tell you, we're always ready to welcome visitors with open arms and a smile. One of my favorite pastimes is being out and about searching for the newest shops and slurping up the best ramen in town. Whether it's in Ikebukuro or Shinjuku, I know these neighborhoods like the back of my hand. Consider me your go-to Tokyo expert. From ramen joints with flavors that will blow your mind to explaining the intricacies of sushi, I've got you covered. And don't forget to strike a pose, because I love snapping photos of our adventures together! So, what are you waiting for? Let's dive into the excitement of Tokyo and make some unforgettable memories together!

Ack san was a great host for our family. It felt like we were touring the city with a friend and not someone we had just met. Highly recommend Ack san as a host for anyone who is coming to Tokyo!

Ack gave us a fantastic tour of Tokyo! His communication beforehand was superb, and he was really easy going on the day. He even took some photos of us and sent them via WhatsApp after the tour finished! We packed a lot in - but at a really great pace. Ack knew some awesome little secret locations that enabled us to avoid the crowds and really get a good feel for Tokyo. I would absolutely recommend both Ack and City Unscripted.
