Shimokitazawa tours

We had the best time shopping with our guide Shun. His knowledge of local stores and thrifting is second to none! As first timers to Japan who don’t speak Japanese, it was great to get a locals insights into the area. He also listened to what we were looking for and showed us exactly what we wanted to see. Amazing experience!

It was our first full day in Japan, and we are very grateful to our guide Frankie for leading us on an informative tour of the Meiji Jingu shrine. We learned so much that we would have never discovered otherwise - the history of Shinto shrines, the history of *that* shrine, how important they are to this day, and so much more. It was a great investment of time and so worth it.

Yoda was very friendly and full of fantastic information to add to our experience. He showed us many great places to eat and we explored all the main sights of Shinjuku. I highly recommend this tour with Yoda!

This was our first trip to Japan, and we wanted to do something special on our very first day in Tokyo. This tour was the perfect choice, and our guide, Hiro, was absolutely wonderful! He met us right at the designated meeting spot and was incredibly knowledgeable about the history of the Imperial Palace. He made sure everyone was comfortable throughout the tour and was always happy to allow time for breaks and rest stops when needed. The gardens are absolutely beautiful, and we especially enjoyed getting to see some of the original historic buildings. It was a wonderful way to start our trip and learn more about Japan’s history and culture. If you’re visiting Tokyo, we highly recommend this tour. And if you’re lucky enough to have Hiro as your guide, you’re in for an extra-special experience!

we had a group of 7 people, were felt like the perfect amount of people. I was solo on this tour, but never felt left out. Part because of the other nice people taking the tour, but also because of our lovely guide Manny. Manny told us about Harajuku before we headed to the Meji Jinku shrine grounds. Manny was very knowledgeable about the shinto religion, customs and rituals. The history and customs were presented in a fun and informative way. Overal, the tour felt very in line with the connections and knowledge emperor Meji is known for. Definitely take the tour if you are thinking about it. The grounds are very impressive. We were lucky to be here on a beautifully sunny day, which meant we were able to witness a few weddings happen on the shrine grounds as well as live Gagaku in the centre of the shrine grounds. I am very glad I decided to take this tour. Thank you fellow travelers and our guide Many for the beautiful experience.

Great half-day tour for cat lovers. Our guide Momo was wonderful and very friendly. There is a lot of information about cats in Japan. The cat cafe is very nice and cozy, and the cats are just super cute. The cat temple is also great, and the small shops nearby have many lovely cat-themed items.

Amazing Shibuya tour with Hiyori & Maya! We had a wonderful time on this Shibuya walking tour from start to finish. Hiyori and Maya were both friendly, professional, and made us feel completely comfortable. They shared the history behind Hachiko and the area's popular streets and restaurants, and showed us some real hidden gems, including a building with a free view over the Shibuya Crossing. No admission fee needed! If you're in Shibuya and not sure what to do, I highly recommend this tour. Thank you, Hiyori and Maya!

Midori was a fantastic guide and translator. Our Geisha Chiaki San had such beautiful dances and fun games! She was kind enough to answer all our questions and even taught us a little origami! 10/10 would recommend!

Had the best time! They gave us a free shot of sake & some free tea/mochi at the end. Staff was friendly & the entertainers did an amazing job. We for sure recommend!
