Oriel was amazing. Great driver, knowledgeable and so friendly. We could ask any question and he would answer. He would suggest things to see and how to see each stop. Highly recommend this tour.

Moshe was a wonderful tour guide. He was polite, attentive and helped plan the perfect all day tour of Tokyo. His English was perfect! His driving was masterful. We highly recommend him.
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.
Karl_L, Apr 2026
Great experience. He was very knowledgeable about both the history and culture. He had great insights about where to go for what we wanted to see. Great way to experience Tokyo in a day.

Our tour completely exceeded expectations. Moshe was our guide. He is amazing in every way-knowledgeable, friendly, polite and accommodating. He made the day perfect and provided us with a memory that will last a lifetime. We saw all of the beautiful sights of Tokyo and made a new friend. Thank you, Moshe! You’re the best! We would not hesitate to book this tour again.

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 and Richard was very accommodating.
Skytree lines were long but does no affect the great service rating
Jodie_B, Mar 2026
Guy is the consummate guide, giving us excellent insight on Tokyo, the people and the history of the various sites that we visited. He was so accommodating to our wishes and made us feel cared for and understood. He is an excellent driver and our time with him passed by so fast. He is the one to get for a memorable and experience in Tokyo.

Guy provided a comprehensive and thorough tour of Tokyo for our family. He was very knowledgeable and helpful understanding the landmarks and different parts of the city. Guy was flexible and accommodating to any changes that needed to be made along the way. His friendly and warm demeanor made our trip pleasant and I highly recommend this tour if you’re visiting Tokyo.

Oriel our driver to the fantastic job was very knowledgeable. English was excellent. Had a good overview of the city in allotted time. Would highly recommend.
Leslie_W, Mar 2026
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
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.
Jason_B, Mar 2026
Oriol was the best tour guide we have ever had. He was so courteous and insightful. He made sure we had a perfect day!!!
jlh0747, Feb 2026
Oriol was an excellent guide! He arranged our tour exactly as we wanted plus added extras we didn’t know we would enjoy. High marks for sure.
marjoerie_g, Feb 2026
Moshe was very knowledgeable and experienced with the area. He was kind, funny, and flexible with the itinerary. Vehicle was clean and water bottles were available for us. Convenient locations for pick ups and drop offs at the different sites specially when the area tends to be busy.
Harold_S, Feb 2026
We had a great experience with Moshe. . He was a great tour guide and took the time to explain to us the various cultural and historic topics in Tokyo. I would definitely recommend him to anyone wanting a private tour of Tokyo.
Kanwarjeet_S, Feb 2026
Perfect dedicated English speaking Chauffeur who took us to various places of interest to us, giving us ample time at each place.
As we had just one day to explore Tokyo, it was perfect & Moshe a lively person explained everything in detail & answered all our queries.
Jenny_T, Jan 2026
This is a wonderful way to see a few different areas of Tokyo. Our driver Richard had an itinerary in mind, but also left us opportunities to cater the day to suit our tastes. We had a little culture, a little food, a little shopping and a little local info along the way.
Richard was great at describing what we were seeing as we drove through the different areas, and prepped us well for each of our stops. I could feel that he’d spent time exploring the areas that he shared with us and that he loves the places we stopped.
The car was excellent - we felt like royalty each time we stopped and got out or back into the car; very comfortable and a smooth ride.
All in all, if you have a day to kill in Tokyo and you don’t know what you want to see, this is a stellar option. I will certainly come back and spend more time in the areas Richard introduced to us.
May_D, Jan 2026
Good enough to see around Tokyo. Not much history informations. Some attractions were closed. If not for the heat it is too much money for what it is.
Alison_E, Dec 2025
What amazing day with Moshe, sharing all of his insights on Tokyo. Such great way to see just about everything in Tokyo! Thanks Moshe for fantastic day!

We booked a private driver for our final day in Tokyo because we had to check out of our hotel at 11 a.m., but our flight wasn’t until the evening. We wanted to maximize our last hours in the city without worrying about luggage, timing, or rushing around. Hiring Moshe was absolutely the best decision.
From the moment he reached out, Moshe was warm, professional, and incredibly easy to communicate with. His English is flawless, and his hospitality made the entire day feel seamless and stress-free.
The car was pure luxury—comfortable, spotless, and exactly what you want when you’re wrapping up a long trip. Moshe handled our luggage, kept us on the perfect schedule, and adjusted to anything we needed with zero hesitation. He truly listened to what kind of day we wanted and made it happen effortlessly.
Most importantly, he was extremely accommodating. Whether it was letting us take our time in the morning, helping us avoid doubling back to the hotel, or taking us anywhere we wanted to go before our Haneda drop-off, Moshe made everything easy. He turned what could have been a chaotic “travel day” into a smooth, enjoyable final experience in Tokyo.
If you're looking for a private driver who is reliable, kind, professional, and genuinely invested in making your day better, Moshe is the one. I highly, highly recommend him and Tokyo Grand Tours. This was the perfect end to our trip.

Sam did a great job of putting together an “off the beaten path” itinerary. We saw lovely non-tourists neighborhoods, a lovely cemetery, shrines and gardens. I highly recommend you do this tour with Sam on your first day. We took multiple train rides including Tokyo station. This made using the train system so much less scary for the remainder of our trip.
Nancy_B, Nov 2025
Moshe was a great guide. He was extremely knowledgeable providing us great insight to the city and the culture of Japan.
Anna_G, Nov 2025
This tour was a very convenient way to see Tokyo and made the whole day really easy. We could take our time at each stop, which made everything feel much more enjoyable instead of rushed. The schedule flowed nicely, we never felt pressured to move on quickly, and it was great not having to worry about navigating the trains or planning every detail ourselves. Overall highly recommended. Thank you!
Gretchen_K, Nov 2025
Our experience started a little worrisome. They were 1 hour late to our tour. Some mix up on their system. But our guide was AMAZING! He more than made up for the error ( came in on his day off) and extended the tour to make up for the start delay. Super personable and very knowledgeable! Highly recommend!
Malleryv, Nov 2025
We had an absolutely perfect first day in Tokyo with Oriol. He took us to so many fantastic sights and made the entire day feel effortless. Oriol is incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and thoughtful — especially as we were traveling with our six-month-old baby. He always made sure we had places to change the baby and adjusted the day so everything was comfortable and easy for us.
His car was spotless and very comfortable, which made a long day of sightseeing so enjoyable. We learned so much and saw far more than we ever could have managed on our own.
We loved the Tokyo tour so much that we booked him again for a Mount Fuji day trip — and we highly, highly recommend it. There’s simply no way we would have been able to see so much or navigate all the logistics without a guide and a van. It was one of the highlights of our trip.
Absolutely recommend Oriol for anyone visiting Tokyo!
