What Can You See on a Private One-Day Tokyo Tour? A Licensed Guide's Report
Today's guests were a group visiting Japan from North America. We first headed to Tokyo Tower, and they mentioned that the night before they had seen Tokyo Tower beautifully lit up from their hotel room. Moving from the Main Deck up to the Top Deck, they enjoyed the panoramic view of Tokyo. Next, we went to the Tsukishima Monja Town area, where they experienced monja. They said they would take a video so they could recreate it after returning home, and they were very satisfied. We then visited Ameyoko and strolled through its unique atmosphere. Finally, they experienced the Shibuya Crossing before we parted ways.

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.
