Our guide knew little about our tour and was basically just a driver. Very disappointing compared with our previous Viator tours.
Ricardo_C, Sep 2025
We had a great experience touring Tokyo. Our guide was excellent. He made sure we hit the places we requested and more. He was willing to make adjustments as per our request. We will definitely recommend Viator and Petteri for anyone wanting to tour Tokyo. Thanks so much for the wonderful experience.
Response from Host, Sep 2025
Thank you! We’re delighted you had a great Tokyo tour with Petteri, enjoyed the flexibility, and appreciated his thoughtful guidance throughout the experience.

It was great to have a private car to take us to the places we were interested in. Even though the traffic in Tokyo is challenging, Ahamed was a skilled driver and arranged the day as efficiently as possible. He was also very knowledgeable and we learned a lot about Japanese culture along the way.

Comprehensive tour of Tokyo with English speaking guide.
Well organised tour, picked up on time at our hotel. Ahmed took us to the highlights we wanted to see. We got a bit lost after exiting the Sky Tree but we finally found Ahmed.
Deborah_G, Mar 2025
Ahamed was very knowledgeable about the sites we visited. His English was very clear to understand. Even though it rained all day, we were able to see much of Tokyo. Ahamed was able to show us pictures and suggest alternate sights as the rain made walking in the gardens undesirable. We made the best of a messy day!

A jam packed tour, we had some bad weather but still enjoyed the day and the sights that it covered, great for an overview on Tokyo, do it early in your trip and get to know the layout of Tokyo

Zia was awesome. He spoke to us about Tokyo and made sure we saw all the important sites in the limited time we had.
Neil_H, Jul 2024
Our guide did a great job customizing our day. We only had one day in Tokyo and unfortunately it rained. He was prepared with umbrellas and good ideas to adjust the itinerary for the weather.

Mukarram was on-time and kind. He was a great driver and nice person but not a great tour guide. He shared fun facts about Japan for the first 30 minutes and then as the tour would go on would just drop us off and tell us to text him when to pick us up. He only came to the fish market and first shrine with us. The tour was supposed to be 10 hours but it ended in 7ish hours. We would not have been able to see as much of Tokyo in one day without his driving but this be advertised as a private tour guide is not correct.
Dorothy_P, Oct 2023
Zia was excellent. He showed us all the relevant sites that a tourist would be interested in seeing. He explained the culture and how he ended up living a wonderful city as Tokyo. He arrived early to pick us up and proceeded to outline our day what would be doing and seeing. Very informative and would highly recommend him to anyone.

Zohaib was friendly, accommodative and flexible. Had a good experience, thank you! I enjoyed my time exploring Tokyo.
Melissa_t, Aug 2023
Our driver Zohaib was fantastic. Zohaib was on time at the hotel for our pick up. He was able to take us to several places that we had missed on previous tours. Helping us find extra luggage to buy and also talking my son to see the Godzilla Hotel, which was on my son's bucket list to do in Japan. As this was out last tour in Tokyo, I am so glad we booked this charter as it was the perfect way to finish our holiday. Zohaib was very accommodating with all our needs and I am extremely grateful.

Our tour guide and driver Shoaib, was really nice and helpful. He was polite and very knowledgeable. The company is also very responsive to questions. Our driver is also our guide, and cannot join us throughout each attraction. He just gave us instructions prior to entering and on the way to each attraction. But I knew that already prior to booking this trip so I still gave them 5stars. The van is good size, not luxury vehicle but clean. They will modify the stops based on your preferences and they are very accommodating.

Exceptionally rainy Spring Tokyo day made fun by our guide! Toured Meiji Shrine in full downpour. The aromatic cypress smells brought out by the heavy rain were delightful.
carolyn_c, Mar 2023
We saw many sights in Tokyo that were planned and arrived at the airport at exactly the time we wanted. Zohaib was great, patient, kind, and friendly!
A_A, Feb 2023
My guide made my day!! Highest recommendation and thanks. Well worth it. Attuned to my interests, extremely knowledgeable. Exactly what I wanted and I felt super comfortable. Came away with in depth local knowledge.
Maria_W, Jan 2023
We had an amazing time with our private Tokyo tour today. Mukarram deserves more than a 5 star for his patience and expertise. He made sure that my elderly mom who is not able to walk fast and long distance was accommodated. He was very entertaining and we learned new things about Tokyo. This is my mom’s first visit to Tokyo but our second visit. Truly, a great way to see most of Tokyo in a day. Thanks again Mukarram and Live Nippon.

This tour was awsome. Our driver was very accomodating and took us to the places we wanted to see. He also is very knowledgeable of Tokyo. We highly recommend these guys.
