To see as much as possible - you could head up Tokyo Skytree, or even better, the observation deck of the Tokyo Government Building, before whizzing back down to ground level and exploring a neighborhood you spotted from above. Experience unique aspects of Tokyo’s culture, like slurping ramen in a private booth, shopping in mammoth electronics stores, and cheering ‘kanpai’ with your host over sake in a retro izakaya!

Our guide Hiroko was exceptional! She was patient, kind, and professionally addressed our questions during our tour. I fell sick during my tour and her compassion and quick response addressing my needs was comforting. Do not think twice about scheduling a tour with her. Hiroko was the best tour guide I have ever experienced!

Me and my wife felt like we were leaving a friend at the end of the tour. I cannot say enough good things about Hiroko Kitagawa san . She was the best tour guide we have had in all our travels . Anyone who gets her for a tour is fortunate.

This is a great way to see how the locals eat. Our guide took us off the beeten path offering us great historic facts about the city while sharing resturants and dishes we would have never found. The meals were great and she was able to cater the experiance to what we were looking for.
