A great walking tour with the guide meeting us at our hotel.
We had visited the main sights of Tokyo before so we picked some lesser known parts that we hadn't visited before.
Oli was a great guide, very knowledgeable about the area and easy to be with.
We used public transport with his help which is payable on the day.

It was like hanging out with a family friend and learning about the city! Amir was friendly and informative and very relatable!

Enrique was awesome ..we did it with transportation and he customized a tour for my son and I off my sons to do list.
He is extremely knowledgeable and caring as he was personally interested and helpful in helping us plan our two weeks in Japan in other cities
We are glad we participated

We had a great tour. We opted for a 3 hour tour and asked to do some public transit around where we are staying (Shinjuku). Our guide Christiano was great. He pointed out landmarks so we could orientate ourselves, then took us to 4 sites which were all interesting.

What a friendly and informative tour. Jenny customised our tour to meet our needs and importantly, provided much information in advance. We knew in advance exactly what we were going to meet, where we would meet Jenny and so on. Jenny is a very friendly and helpful guide with much historical knowledge.

Amir was a great guide. Great tour in only 4 hours. Wish we had more time to explore - maybe when we return

Enrique is an amazing guide, sharing lots of wisdom about Japan and Tokyo's history, culture and landmarks. He adapted the tour to us and was super helpful giving tips for the following days. Bonus: impressive photographer!
Brent_H, Apr 2026
Our guide - AJ - was simply the best. Very friendly and helpful. Totally flexible to meet our requests.

My friend & were guided to several temples & shrines over several parts of Tokyo. He will guide you as little or as much as you are able to do. We also had matcha ice cream cones. We rode the subway a couple of times, went to the Sky Tree & a mall. Just ask & you can probably do the trip!

Private 2 hour walking tour to help us get find our way around Tokyo as we couldn’t check into hotel until 3pm. Great start to holiday. Our guide was fab, met us at our hotel, took us on the underground & took us around Shibuya, Shinjuku & Government building observation deck. Gave us useful information & was fun & engaging. Really helped us make the most of our time.

Jenny was a perfect tour guide. She went out of her way to help us find a place we were lost at even before the tour happened and held a large piece of luggage for us the entire time. She planned a tour exactly to our specifications and my kids loved her!
Robert_T, Mar 2026
Amir is an excellent guide. He took us to some of his Hidden Gems and explained much about Japanese culture and customs. Not Japanese by birth, he clearly respects and admires the Japanese life-style and character. Traveling on foot and subway was better in many ways to feel like a local as we moved about the city.
A very informative and gratifying experience.
Terri_P, Nov 2025
Excellent More than seeing the sights Personal intro to every aspect of Japanese life culture and history. Albert was the ideal guide
Mark_P, Oct 2025
Kenta was an amazing tour guide. He met us early at our hotel, helped us navigate Shinjuku station (which is not easy), then guided us to Meiji Shrine. We walked the grounds, explained the history and protocols, then helped us write our wish on an Ema, a small wooden plaque, and hang it at the shrine to be received by the kami. Later we went to Shibuya Crossing and experienced the public crossing. Was a great time and would do it again. He was very kind and patient with all our requests and questions about Japanese life and culture. Thanks Kenta.

Roccio was absolutely wonderful as our tour guide. She took us to so many great places and was so knowledgeable. She even went over the tour time to fit in everything we wanted to see. Highly recommend!!
Worldtraveller, Jul 2025
Very helpful guide. Made meeting up much easier than usual. Tailored the tour to our needs. Gave good advice on shopping areas to my nieces. Helped me purchase bullet train tickets to Osaka. Very informative on the sites we saw.
Brandy_V, Jun 2025
Great experience. Cyril was very friendly and knowledgeable. After the tour was complete and we went our separate ways, he still assisted us when I sent him a message asking about which subway to take to get to my next experience. Thanks to Cyril we all had a great time and learned a lot. Would definitely recommend doing this tour.
Patricia_M, May 2025
While I received a survey about what I would want for the tour none of that was passed on to the guide. I spent time listing all the sites we would cover with the tour we would begin in a few days and none of this was shared. Thus nothing was prepared and we were asked what we should do. Since we had arrived in Tokyo late the ever before we had no clue. It became a hit or miss three hours
Response from Host, May 2025
Hi Patricia,
Thank you for taking the time to share this. We’re truly sorry to hear that your expectations were not met and that the information you provided in advance was not relayed to your guide. This is not the standard of preparation we strive for at Guydeez.
We’ve already contacted you by email to follow up directly. Please accept our sincere apologies for the inconvenience, and we hope you’ll give us another chance to show you the experience we’re known for.
Warm wishes,
Guydeez Team

Cristiano was knowledgeable, enthusiastic and in tune with our goals for the day. We had an easy time navigating public transit with him. Box lunch outside the Imperial Palace was a great idea and he knew exactly the right place for photos. He made our day in Tokyo very memorable.
Blake_D, Mar 2025
Our tour guide Maria was fabulous. She made sure we were able to enjoy Tokyo and hit all of the historical and cultural highlights (both old and new culture).
We enjoyed the old historical places, the markets and some new cultural highlights.
Judy_M, Feb 2025
Albert was a great guide. I learnt a lot about Japan. Two hours walking was just right. We probably walked 3-4 kms
Sara_D, Jan 2025
Our guide Karl was great. This was a really good into tour to Tokyo on our first day. Karl showed us how to use the rail systems as we explored Shinjuku, Harajuku and Shibuya.

Although it was a bit misty in the morning, we enjoyed our visit of the city with Olivier. Olivier was easily reached via WhatsApp he had a suggested tour planned for us. We opted for the car option and the money spent was well worth it. We went to several areas in town...including the Tokyo Tower, Imperial Palace (which was not open that day due to New Year's Holiday), Sensoji Temple, a walk through the streets of Harajuku, and a visit to Shibuya Crossing. Olivier found us a great spot for lunch - Mizuguchi Shokudou. We chose to end our time with Olivier a bit early to head for the Ginza Shopping District. If you are looking for a tour that is catered to your needs while moving through the city, I highly recommend this tour.

I was in Tokyo on a very short work trip and wanted to ensure I was able to see the sights so I booked this tour; it had the most flexibility and was reasonably priced. Fabian was in communication with me all the way leading up to our tour and was extremely helpful and flexible! I unfortunately ran late for my tour, but Fabian was so kind and waited for me to arrive! We had a great time touring the historical sights and I really enjoyed his commentary and stories from the past. It was absolutely worth it and would recommend it to everyone visiting Tokyo!
Katherine_M, Nov 2024
Jenny was fun and her English was great. We went to Asakusa and the Tsukiji Temple and Market. Jenny suggested that we meet at the market at 8am because it would get too crowded and she was right!
Christine_J, Oct 2024
Riccardo’s ability to please snd make sure we covered all our requirements
We enjoyed the whole experience
Too many wonderful sights to be able to mention one.
Menachem_K, Sep 2024
Albert provided an exceptional tour of Tokyo, showcasing his deep knowledge of the city's history, culture, and hidden gems. His accommodating nature made the experience not only informative but also enjoyable and personalized. It was truly an unforgettable experience.

Jane was wonderful and very flexible to accommodate our needs. We definitely will use her next time.
Dwight_P, Sep 2024
This two hour private walking tour was excellent! Fabian communicated well prior to my arrival in Tokyo and designed a custom tour for me based on my interests.
He was very professional, friendly, and knowledgeable. I regret not having more time to spend with him. HIGHLY recommend Fabian for personal walking tours.
