Excellent Anime Adventure! - Nao is an excellent tour guide. It felt like we hired a new best friend for the day for my anime loving teenage son. My son can’t stop talking about it and it was the highlight of a weeklong stay in Tokyo. An exceptional adventure. He went above and beyond.

Exactly what we wanted. - Nao, what a great personal experience he picked us up at our hotel on time and we had a few places we wanted to see, but we let him Pick based on what my two sons liked to see plus we got to see a few other places that we wouldn’t have got to see if we had to figure out how to go places ourselves. It was a tour set up for my two boys to have a great time with anime and Pokémon, he made sure our day was full of excitement seeing the sites. I really recommend his services. He was very insightful and informative 100% recommend Nao.

Amazing anime tour with the kindness tour guy did ever! - This tour guide is wonderful! He is so kind and brought us to so many wonderful anime stores. One of the best things he did was when he brought us to an arcade and won all of us a anime item. Another time he was incredibly awesome was when he gave us these cool anime items from his collections that. I would 100 percent recommend to anyone who loves anime.

The Best Anime Adventure Ever - Our Personslized Anime Tour with Nao was the best ever. This was my daughter’s 16 year birthday trip as she is a huge Anime Fan. He customized the entire day that was age appropriate to include my 8 year old. It started of with Pick up from our hotel. He made sure my daughter got to all the right Anime stores & walked her through one of the shows location in Shibuya. We got go to go the arcades and he was extremely kind to our little one. We got to play play the Anine Claw manned and many of the retro games. He even extended our time so that we could get supper. Thank you Nao, for the best experience ever!

Highly recommended - Nao took us to all the best stores and gave us loads of advice on how much to pay for items and where to buy them from. We grabbed loads of bargains and discovered shops that would not be possible without a guide.

This day was not at all... - This day was not at all what I could have expected but was so much better than I could have imagined. Your guide Nao does a great job to get to know you and your interests, and form the tour around what you want. He knows the best place for video games, anime and manga, arcades, and way way more. He can answer any question you have and is able to make you feel so much more connected to the areas you’re in. I seriously can’t recommend this tour enough.
