What Does a Private One-Day Tour of Tokyo Cover? A Licensed Guide's Report on Asakusa, Tokyo Tower, and Shibuya
Today's guests were a group visiting Japan from Oceania. We first headed to Asakusa and visited Senso-ji Temple. The weather was cloudy and relatively cool today, and Nakamise Street was not very crowded, so we were able to explore at a leisurely pace. Next, we visited Tokyo Tower, and I explained that it was modeled after the Eiffel Tower and designed to be slightly taller. We went up to the Main Deck and the guests enjoyed the panoramic view of Tokyo. Finally, we moved to Shibuya, where they were overwhelmed by the large number of international visitors. They were surprised to see foreign travelers racing around Shibuya in go-karts.

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.
