Title: What's a Private One-Day Tokyo Tour Like? A Licensed Guide's Report on Tsukiji, Asakusa, Meiji Shrine, and Shibuya
The guests were visitors from Europe. The tour was originally scheduled to start at 9:00, but due to a conflict in the Middle East, their flight was changed. They arrived on the morning of the 17th, so the tour began at 12:00 instead. Since they had already had lunch, at Tsukiji they enjoyed salmon nigiri at a stand-up sushi bar. They said it was very fresh. They walked around and looked at various shops, and seemed to want to come back on their own. In Asakusa, they purchased subway tickets and remarked how beautiful the buildings of Senso-ji were. They also found the forest of Meiji Shrine wonderful and took many photos. After that, on Takeshita Street, they enjoyed a different atmosphere with animal cafes and crepes. They were very fit and did not mind walking at all, so we strolled along Cat Street, experienced the Shibuya Crossing, and ended the tour in Shibuya. They were lovely guests who could enjoy anything.

We had an absolutely wonderful day with Fumiko and Nino. We saw all the sights we wanted to see in Tokyo. Nino was able to move us efficiently through the city dropping of at the various sights and picking us up without waiting! Nino’s vehicle was comfortable and absolutely spotless. Fumiko reach out to us via email and made up an itinerary that was perfect for our time schedule she is a true professional! We highly recommend this tour and you could not find a better guide and driver combination than Fumiko and Nino.

We had a great time on our tour. Our guide, Fumiko, was very good. She contavted us about two weeks before the tour so she could customize the activities. She was incredibly helpful during all of the planning. She met us at our meering poit with a sign that had identified her, which made the start of the tour easy. Thw tour itself was awesome. She gave good insight about all the locations that we visited. I highly recommend her for any tours.

Don’t visit Tokyo without a guide! You’ll need help to find the good restaurants and interesting spots.
We had a tour with Ms. Fumiko. She was a both knowledgeable and nice guide. She even contacted us days beforehand to design the tour to meet our specific needs and wishes. Much appreciated!
