Truly VIP experience. ...

Murali_N, Jun 2026
Truly VIP experience. Covers a lot of the key attractions in one day . Moshe was a very knowledgeable guide and chauffeur.

Great way to see Tokyo... have a tailored trip!

Bre_S, Jun 2026
This was the perfect way to check out some hot spots in Tokyo! Our tour guide was Oriol and he was great! We really appreciated the him helping us figure out the right itinerary for us. Since we were staying close to one of the stops, we eliminated it from our trip and were able to add time for another. He really went the extra mile to make sure we were having a good time. The vehicle was quality and very well air conditioned. When you are traveling in the summer, this is HANDS DOWN the way to check out sites without having to truck yourself all over the city. It allowed us to see out the windows and take everything in knowing someone else is driving!

Wonderful (and easy) way...

Dory_S, Jun 2026
Wonderful (and easy) way to see all the Tokyo highlights in a day. Our tour guide Oriol was knowledgeable, friendly and spoke perfect English. Highly recommend!

GEOFF_W, Jun 2026
Our driver, Oriel, was outstanding. We were with him for two full days and found him to be courteous, attentive and knowledgeable. Oriel, from Barcelona and married to a Japanese woman, was able to provide a unique perspective on Japan.

Great way to get introduced to the city.

Diane_S, May 2026
We had a fantastic day exploring Tokyo by car with our guide Guy. He was so fun and helpful getting us to each destination and on time for all pickups. Truly a great experience.

An exceptional tour and guide - thanks Moshe!

Sue_R, May 2026
Moshe was a fantastic guide and driver. He was so personable and shared his vast knowledge of Tokyo with us. Moshe was able to organise the itinerary to suit our needs. We were able to see all the most popular Tokyo sites and were driven around in a spotlessly clean and very comfortable vehicle. We could not have asked for a better introduction to Tokyo and would highly recommend this tour. Thank you again Moshe!

Touring with Guy

Laura_S, Apr 2026
The vehicle was spotless and perfect size for the six of us. The guide, Guy, was wonderful. Accommodating, articulate, knowledgeable, personable, informative, engaging. Took exceptional care of us all day. If I ever am able to return to Japan, his would be the only service I would consider.

Great great Experience

Our tour guide Richard...

gigi, Apr 2026
Our tour guide Richard was wonderful. He stared the tour off on the right foot by contacting me in advance to find out where we were staying and if there were particular things we wanted to see He picked us up perfectly on time in a beautiful large BMW which was very comfortable. The rest of the day went just as smoothly. We started the day at a large Buddhist Temple, and then went to the Skytree which had amazing views of Tokyo. We asked Richard to take us to the kitchen supply district since we wanted to buy quality knives. He was very helpful in pointing out three shops so we could compare knives and prices. We finished with lunch in one of the posh suburbs. Richard still had more he wanted to show us but my partner was lagging so at our request Richard drove us back to our hotel. At the end of the day we felt that we had really absorbed much of the flavor of Tokyo. Throughout the tour Richard shared his extensive knowledge of Tokyo and Japan. It was a perfect day. We both agreed it was well worth the extra cost for a private guide and will advise our friends traveling to Japan to ask for Richard.

Enjoyed the luxury car...

Enjoyed the luxury car and Richard was very accommodating. Skytree lines were long but does no affect the great service rating

This was the best way to see Tokyo having someone drive you around telling you all about the city made it so much easier for the next few days to enjoy yourself

Highly Recommend! Excellent English and great guide!

Ruth_W, Mar 2026
Highly Recommend!! Moshe was an outstanding guide in Tokyo. Moshe’s English is excellent and is very easy to understand. Greatly appreciated his communication skills in contacting us after booking via What’s Up app and also appreciated his promptness! We enjoy learning about the culture and customs and Moshe did a wonderful job of informing us of life in Tokyo and throughout Japan. Moshe’s van is very spacious and complete with WiFi, charger plug-in, water bottles and our own temperature control. Moshe provided a list of suggested sights; however he let us decide what we wanted to see and how long to stay at each venue.

Best day ever!
