Tour de passeio por Asakusa, Kappabashi e Ueno: 3 horas sentindo a história e a cultura de Tóquio

We had Haruhiko “Sunny” Tamura as our guide, and he was wonderful! This tour was the perfect mix of cultural learning, sightseeing, shopping, and eating. Sunny did a great job explaining the meaning and stories behind the places we visited. He even brought illustrations to explain customs like how to properly clean our hands and bow, which made learning about Japanese traditions fun and memorable. He was incredibly friendly, personable, and down to earth. His English was excellent, and we had no problem understanding him or asking questions. He gave us great shopping tips, helped us pick out a few shops he thought we would enjoy, and gave us excellent recommendations for lunch. It felt more like exploring with a knowledgeable local than following a typical tour. We learned a lot and had a great time. I would absolutely recommend Sunny and would definitely book with him again!

Es gibt nichts Schöneres und besser, als sich von einem Einheimischen durch die Stadt führen zu lassen. Es war ein echtes Vergnügen, von Riho-san mehr über die Geschichte von Asakusa, Kappabashi und Ueno zu erfahren. Sie hat mich drei Stunden lang mit einem schönen Lächeln begleitet. Wir haben sogar eine kurze Pause für paar Bilder, einen Kaffee und zum Souvenir-Shopping eingelegt. Ich kann diese Tour nur wärmstens empfehlen. Nothing better than getting guided around the city by a local. It was a treat to learn about history of Asakusa, Kappabashi and Ueno from Riho-San. She guided me through the three hours with a smile. There was enough time to learn about the place and take pictures.She even stopped for a quick coffee and souvenir shopping. Riho-san has such a uplifting energy that the three hours of learning feel like a breeze. 10/10 recommend this tour.

I had a pleasant experience on this tour as a solo traveler. My guide, Gwen, was very knowledgeable and shared many interesting facts and stories about the places we visited. Since I was the only guest, the tour was relaxed and never felt rushed, and we completed the itinerary on time. I was initially hoping to have a local Japanese guide, as I was particularly interested in learning about Tokyo from a local perspective. Still, Gwen was very knowledgeable about the area and did his best to make the tour informative and enjoyable. Overall, I learned a lot and enjoyed exploring Asakusa, Kappabashi, and Ueno. Thank you, Gwen, for the great tour!

Amazing guide! Friendly, knowledgeable and made the whole trip fun and memorable. One of the best tour guides i’ve had. Highly recommended!

Tivemos uma experiência absolutamente maravilhosa, tudo graças à Cris. Ela é incrivelmente inteligente, experiente, amigável e realmente se esforçou ao máximo por nós. Cris nos guiou cuidadosamente por Kaminarimon, Nakamise Shopping Street, Templo Senso-ji, Hoppy Street, Kappabashi Kitchenware Town e Ueno Park, compartilhando uma rica história e cultura de uma forma fácil de entender, envolvente e nunca apressada. Ela foi muito gentil e paciente, garantindo que aproveitássemos e apreciássemos cada parada. O que nos impressionou ainda mais foi que, após o término do passeio, Cris generosamente nos ajudou a navegar por outras áreas que queríamos explorar, incluindo Ginza e locais de compras, algo que realmente apreciamos e não esperávamos de forma alguma. Ela é uma pessoa genuinamente maravilhosa e uma guia turística excepcional. Nós definitivamente a recomendaremos a qualquer pessoa que visite o Japão e com certeza entraremos em contato com ela novamente em nossa próxima viagem. Obrigada, Cris, por fazer um excelente trabalho! Você merece mais do que uma classificação de 5 estrelas. Valeu muito a pena! ❤️

I had a fantastic tour with Kirill! Not only was he very knowledgable about the sites we visited but also a very good communicator, the standout of the tour for me was visiting Ueno Park and getting the all too forgotten historical backdrop to the "Last Samurai", Saigō Takamori and the features of the park that are in contrast to him. Kirill also gave plenty of time for shopping around Kappabashi and getting refreshments throughout the duration of the tour, the latter was much needed on a hot summer's day in Tokyo! I would also like to highlight that Kirill knew some great hidden gems, some which were in plain sight but get bypassed and some hidden away, but I cannot spoil what those are! I highly recommed this tour for those who are genuinely interested in learning more about the area and Japan's History as a whole, the end point being Ameyoko and Ueno Station works great with any further itinerary for the day.

I was really fortunate to do the tour by myself so it really felt like it was just me and my tourguide Miyuki taking a stroll around Asakusa, Kappabashi and Ueno! It was snowing most of the time but I really enjoyed the tour. It's a good one to start with if it's your first time in Tokyo especially if you're staying in the Asakusa area. Highly recommend!

We had such a wonderful tour of Asakusa with Hiroko! She was warm, knowledgeable, and incredibly friendly, making the whole experience feel relaxed and personal. We learned so much about the history and culture of the area while discovering some beautiful spots we might otherwise have missed. Hiroko was a fantastic guide, and we’d happily recommend her to anyone visiting Tokyo!

I had a wonderful morning with Naoko! She made sure to be easy to find, explained the history and culture well - especially to at the local temples. She also made a point to adjust to my specific interests without me asking. I could not have had a better first day in Tokyo!

Our guide, Hiro, was friendly, informative, and very accommodating. He explained many historical facts that we would not have known about what we were seeing. He demonstrated how to behave at shrines and temples. He also helped me to find a particular knife shop in Kappabashi, which was truly appreciated. I would recommend booking this tour for any first-timer to Asakusa
