What Does a 6-Hour Private Tour of Tokyo by Car Look Like? A Licensed Guide's Report
The guests were a group visiting from North America. Since they had a cruise trip after the tour, they had a lot of luggage, and the tour started about 30 minutes late as the group was slow to gather.
First stop: Asakusa. We strolled around Kaminarimon Gate, Nakamise Shopping Street, and Senso-ji Temple. The guests experienced Japanese culture, such as the smoke from the large incense burner and praying at Senso-ji Temple. I explained Buddhism and Shinto.
Second stop: Tsukiji Outer Market (lunch). We did a food tour. The group enjoyed wagyu skewers, sushi, rice bowls, gyoza, fruit, and more, all together in a lively atmosphere. They enjoyed it right up until the bus departure time.
Third stop: Shibuya Scramble Crossing. With the clear autumn weather, the area was bustling with many people. After looking down from the 2nd floor of Mark City, the guests experienced crossing through the crowds. We also saw the Hachiko statue.
Fourth stop: Tokyo Tower. Although the plan was only to view the exterior from the car window, we got off for a restroom break and the guests were pleased to be able to take photos from the ground. I asked the driver to take them to Yokohama Osanbashi Pier, and I ended my guiding here.

Tripadvisor review: Toyosu Market Morning Tuna Auction and Tsukiji Food Tour with Licensed Guide
The Toyosu tuna auction experience was incredible. I have always wanted to see the auction but until this trip had not managed to fit it into my itinerary. So on this trip I decided to make the early morning effort to see it and in the process I was fortunate to win the lottery and get an even better view of the whole experience ! A shout out to my guide who made the experience first rate, Katsu-San. Katsu-sans knowledge of the market and the tuna auction process, and his enthusiasm to share it, was exceptional. I would recommend him and the tour without hesitation . I would not have understand what I was seeing without his guidance and good humour.
