Fantastic host 'Eriko" - Our tour guide Eriko was a dream! Just what we needed on our first day in Tokyo after a long flight. Prior to arrival communication with Eriko great, we gave an overview of what we wanted to see/do. Eriko was so helpful in securing our Kentucky fried chicken take-out order (all of things while in Japan!) and helping us exchange our JR tickets. Without Eriko we would have been in trouble as we made a mistake and without the translation would have gone horrible wrong! Eriko showed us many sites, made sure we found a nice lunch spot. Surpassed our expectations on our first day. Highly recommend. Friendly and courteous, so thank you Eriko for a truly magical first day.

Good "first-time to Japan" tour! - Yoshi was fluent in English, very kind and very well organized! I would make sure to ask about the guide expertise and language ability before booking as we had a different experience in another city with a different guide by OTOMO. However, a tour guide like Yoshi Omari is a smart request. He knows what he is doing and takes care of his clients.

Beautiful Tokyo - Yoshi was an excellent guide. While we started with a bit of miscommunication as to the meeting place, Yoshi adapted to give us an informative tour and colorful commentary. Tokyo is a beautiful city, and Yoshi gave us a wonderful presentation.

Engaging, knowledgable and educational experience - Our guide Tatsu was very knowledgeable on history, customs and traditions, very engaging and friendly, super flexible on adjusting the schedule, and an absolute pleasure to have a day with. Our time in Tokyo and appreciation of the country and its history greatly enhanced from our time with Tatsu. And, bonus……he is a great photographer.

Tokyo Day Tour - We had an excellent tour of Tokyo with Masami Aonuma and couldn’t have asked for a better guide. His communication was outstanding, and he was incredibly patient, kind, and attentive throughout the day. Masami enriched every stop by sharing photos and thoughtful context, which really brought the city’s history and culture to life. He went above and beyond to guide us through the fish market and made sure we found all the foods we had been hoping to try in Japan. Navigating the subway system felt effortless thanks to him, and he even took extra time at the end of the tour to help my sister get to a specific store. Truly a 10/10 experience—we will absolutely book another tour with Masami when our family returns to Japan. Highly recommended!

1 day private tour of Tokyo - We had an excellent experience with Murayama-san as our guide. From the moment we exited the subway, he was already waiting for us at the metro stop holding a sign with our name on it, which immediately made us feel welcomed and at ease. Murayama-san was extremely professional and incredibly knowledgeable. He used his iPad to provide detailed explanations, visuals, and historical background, which really enhanced our understanding of Japanese culture. Every question we asked was answered thoughtfully, with deep context and clear explanations. It was a long day, but absolutely worth it. We learned so much and came away with an even greater appreciation for Japanese history and culture. We truly appreciate Murayama-san’s dedication, preparation, and passion for what he does. Highly recommended.

Private Tour Experience - If you want a tour that covers all of Tokyo then this is the one! What an incredible experience! He was super professional and tailored the tour to make sure we did not see the same monuments we saw prior to this tour. If you saw something in the tour description just let him know and boom, you have a new spot. Absolutely incredible! Please book this tour, plenty of information is provided via paper provided from the guide and as well as the knowledge from the guide.
