Tokyo: Tsukiji & Meiji Shrine — Guide Leo

August, 2026

Tour Report by LEO

Hello! I’m Ryosuke—please call me Leo.
I’d love to help you create great memories in Japan, especially around Tokyo and my hometown, Hiroshima.

I once traveled 44,000 km by bicycle across four continents (every continent except Australia!). There’s a chance I might even have passed through your hometown. Through that journey, I learned not only how wonderful travel can be, but also the things travelers should watch out for.

With that experience, I’m sure I can help make your trip smoother and more enjoyable.
Let’s have a great time exploring Japan together!

The guests were a group visiting from North America. Because their expectations for sushi and seafood had been very high from the pre-tour planning stage, we spent plenty of time enjoying a food-tasting walk around Tsukiji. In addition to sampling street food, they had requested a good restaurant, so with their agreement we canceled the visit to Tokyo Tower and they were able to enjoy a leisurely lunch. They also had a strong interest in Buddhism, Shinto, and the Japanese sense of religion, and I received many questions at Asakusa and Meiji Shrine. They seemed tired from a full schedule of sightseeing on the previous days, but I believe it turned out to be a relaxing tour.
