What's a Full-Day Private Tour of Tokyo Like? A Licensed Guide's Report on Asakusa, Tsukiji, and Shibuya
Today's guests were a group visiting Japan from Oceania. We first visited Senso-ji Temple, took a group photo at the Kaminarimon Gate, and strolled along Nakamise shopping street, where the guests were surprised by how many international travelers there were. Next, we moved to Tsukiji, where we walked around the market and then enjoyed a sushi lunch at a sushi restaurant I had reserved in advance. In addition to sushi, there were various other menu options available, which was very helpful since one of the guests did not care for fish. Finally, we moved to Shibuya and experienced the Shibuya Crossing. Here, too, the guests remarked that there were so many international travelers that it hardly felt like they were in Japan.

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.
