Anime and Manga tour Akihabara Tokyo. Yes do it. - We enjoyed a fun tour with Ryoko around the anime and manga culture of Akihabara. We booked the tour as we are a mixed age group family and wanted our young adults to find places they might not have come across since arriving in Akihabara. We couldn’t have imagined finding these stores and how many levels there are. Loved learning about ge culture and the secondhand stores also. Ryoko made us all feel comfortable. We loved that the historical electronic stores contained goods from our era. The size of those stores and the photos on display gave us a lot to think about. Ryoko was relatable and made the whole tour enjoyable and we can highly recommend her and the tour.

Great Anime tour - The anime tour in Akihabara Electric town was great. The pace of the stops felt just right, enough time to explore the stores but not so long that it felt like we were waiting around. Masa our tour guide took a personal interest in making the tour relatable to individual interests in our family group. We saw a range of shops and arcades which were bought to life with anecdotal information making sure we got the most out of our visit. Great experience would strongly recommend.

Knowledge and shopper extraordinaire guide! - Our guide Inok was fantastic! He has a great sense of humour and tailored the tour to our 16 year old’s knowledge and experience in anime, manga and gaming. He also took us parents on a trip down memory lane showing hidden shops and markets that sold retro/vintage games and merchandise. He was helpful and kept things interesting and engaging. Would highly recommend Inok’s tour.

Awesome Tour - would go again! - This was an absolutely fantastic addition to our trip! Our excellent guide, iNok, made sure we went to all of the great spots and my son who is an anime enthusiast was beyond happy! When our guide wasn't talking about anime he would offer info on Japanese food, culture and family life which I greatly enjoyed and made the whole experience feel more special.

Toy shopping - This tour was essentially just walking through toy stores. You can do that on your own. The guide was super enjoyable tho.
