Can You Do a Private Tokyo Group Tour for a Large Party? A Licensed Guide's Report
Today's guests were a group from North America, ten people in total. They had a friendly and relaxed atmosphere, which made them easy to guide, but because it was a large group, my role felt less like a guide and more like a tour conductor, and I was fully occupied with making sure everyone moved around safely. It was also challenging to bring everyone's preferences together, as it took some effort to reach a consensus among the group. When we took the subway, I explained that people in Japan tend to be very quiet inside the trains, but the group inevitably became lively, and the volume of conversation rose along with it. Fortunately, there were hardly any other passengers on board, which was a relief. In the end, the guests thoroughly enjoyed each of the places we visited.

Tripadvisor review: Tokyo 6hr Private Tour with Government-Licensed Guide
Yuji was an amazing guide. He was able to add so much information about all the sites we chose to see. He was very kind and when we were tired he suggested a stop for coffee. It revived us and we kept going.
I would highly recommend Yuji to any one visiting Tokyo.

We had a great experience with our 6 hour walking tour. Yuji was our guide, he was knowledgeable, friendly and very helpful through the whole experience. He took us to places that were family friendly and recommended good places to eat and enjoy. We recommend him for your next trip to Tokyo!!!
