Such a wonderful tour through Tokyo with Kanon! The sites, the food, the culture- from the fish markets to the busy streets and the shrines, we were entranced with all that is Tokyo!

Teruhide was awesome! We basically said we wanted a food tour through Tokyo, and we tried so many delicious bites across the different neighborhoods! We tried everything from seasonal cherry blossom treats to crab! Teruhide also recommended a really delicious place for lunch that served crab, and it was so insanely good! Would definitely do this tour again!

Great Custom Tokyo Tour with a Warm and Friendly Guide

scarybassman, May 2026
We recently booked a six-hour customized Tokyo tour through Viator and overall had a really enjoyable experience. Our guide, Maki, was incredibly sweet, thoughtful, friendly, and easy to spend the day with. She had a very warm personality and made the experience feel comfortable and relaxed from start to finish. The areas we chose to explore were Asakusa, Meiji Shrine, Harajuku, and Shibuya, which gave us a really fun mix of traditional and modern Tokyo. One thing we especially appreciated was how flexible and accommodating Maki was throughout the day. In Harajuku, we decided to stop for coffee and get latte foam art made of our pets, which ended up being one of the most memorable and unexpectedly fun parts of the tour. For lunch, Maki asked about our preferences and found a sushi spot she had researched for us that turned out to be absolutely delicious. One issue we did encounter involved transportation logistics. We had originally arranged hotel pickup from the Hilton Tokyo Bay near Disney, but the day before the tour we were informed that traveling out there would take too much time away from the tour itself, so we would instead need to meet in Asakusa. While we completely understand the reasoning — Disney is definitely outside central Tokyo — it would have been very helpful to know this earlier, especially since we booked the tour well over a month in advance. Having to suddenly rearrange transportation plans the day before added a little unnecessary stress. To their credit, they did try contacting me the day before via WhatsApp and the hotel front desk. However, we were at the Disney park all day and didn’t get the message until we got back to the hotel. Trip for future travelers: before arriving, download and turn notifications on for the WhatsApp so you don’t miss calls. Another small downside was beginning the tour in Asakusa very early in the morning. We had hoped to spend some time shopping there, but most of the stores were not open yet, so we missed out on that aspect a bit. As for the guiding itself, Maki did a great job navigating the city and keeping the day moving smoothly. Her friendliness and positive attitude were absolutely the highlight of the experience. I would say the tour leaned a little more toward a relaxed, casual day exploring Tokyo together rather than a deeply historical or cultural deep dive. We’ve done another Tokyo tour in the past with a government-licensed guide who shared much more detailed historical and cultural information, so that was the main difference we noticed here. That said, if you’re looking for a slower-paced, easygoing experience with a younger, very kind and personable guide, this tour could absolutely be a great fit for you. Overall, we had a very good day and appreciated Maki’s kindness and effort throughout the experience.

Response from Host, May 2026

We truly appreciate you taking the time to share such a thoughtful and detailed review. We’re very happy to hear that you had an enjoyable day with Maki and that her warm personality, flexibility, and thoughtful planning helped make the experience comfortable and memorable for you. The latte art stop and sushi lunch sound like such fun highlights, and we’re glad Maki could help create those special moments during your time in Tokyo. Regarding the meeting point adjustment, thank you as well for your understanding. Because Hilton Tokyo Bay is located outside central Tokyo, traveling there and back can significantly reduce sightseeing time during a 6-hour tour, especially when using public transportation. For that reason, our team sometimes suggests a more central starting point in order to maximize the overall tour experience. We sincerely apologize that this change created stress the day before your tour, and we truly appreciate your helpful advice to future travelers regarding WhatsApp communication. We also understand your comments regarding the shopping hours in Asakusa and the style of the guiding itself. Our tours are designed to provide a more flexible, local, and personalized experience rather than a formal historical lecture-style tour, and we understand that different travelers may be looking for different types of experiences. We’re very grateful for your balanced and thoughtful feedback, and most of all, we’re happy to hear that Maki’s kindness and effort helped make your day in Tokyo a positive and memorable one.

Our tour guide was very...

leslie_r, May 2026
Our tour guide was very nice and polite. But very inexperienced. He told us he was only been doing this for two months. We went with this tour because we thought that we would have an experienced tour guide, especially for someone who is visiting Japan for the first time. Out of the four hours, we spent at least an hour and a half getting on subways trying to go to different places that the itinerary promised us, but it was absolutely impossible so the itinerary should’ve not included all the places that they said it would took much longer to get from one place to another. Unfortunately, this tour did not meet expectations of how the website described it.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re glad to hear that you found your guide kind and polite. This tour is designed as an introduction to Tokyo, covering several major areas within a limited timeframe using Tokyo’s public transportation system. Many guests enjoy this style as a way to experience different parts of the city in a short amount of time, though depending on train conditions, crowds, and preferred pace, the amount of travel time can feel different for each group. Tokyo is a very large city, and our guides do their best to adjust the route and timing throughout the experience. We truly appreciate your comments and will continue improving how we explain the itinerary and pacing of the tour to future guests.

Fabulous private tour with an Amazing Guide

Michelle_B, May 2026
We had an excellent private city tour in Tokyo with Naoki as our guide. He spoke excellent English, had a great sense of humour, and made the entire day enjoyable and easy to follow. As a Tokyo local, Naoki had fantastic knowledge of the city, its history, and local culture. He shared so many interesting insights that we never would have learned on our own. One highlight of the day was a wonderful tempura lunch at a quaint local family-run restaurant, which gave us a truly authentic Tokyo experience. One of the most helpful parts of the tour was how he taught us to navigate the train system confidently and even helped us organise tickets for the next leg of our trip. Having previously lived in Australia, Naoki really connected well with us and understood our perspective as travellers. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Tokyo — Naoki went above and beyond to make our experience memorable.

Response from Host, May 2026

Naoki will be incredibly happy to hear such thoughtful feedback! We’re delighted that your private Tokyo tour felt enjoyable, informative, and easy to follow from start to finish. His humor, local knowledge, and ability to explain Tokyo’s history and culture in an engaging way are exactly what we hope guests can experience during the tour. We’re especially glad that the local tempura lunch gave you an authentic side of Tokyo, and that Naoki could help you feel more confident navigating the train system for the rest of your journey. Hearing that he connected well with you through his understanding of both Japan and Australia makes this review even more special. Thank you for your generous recommendation, and we’re truly grateful that Naoki could help create such memorable moments during your time in Tokyo.

Great Tokyo tour!

Heidi_K, May 2026
Got to do and see so much ! Naoki is one in a million, what a amazing guide! We even got to go to the Piglet Cafe and had cuteness overload smooching with piglets.

Response from Host, May 2026

Naoki sounds like he made the day truly special! We’re so happy to hear that you were able to see and do so much during the tour, and that his guidance made the experience feel so memorable. The Piglet Cafe sounds like such a fun and adorable highlight, and we’re glad it added an extra dose of cuteness to your time in Tokyo.

Tokyo with Naoki :)

Naoki patiently showed us Tokyo throughout the day…. Wonderful day!!! Naoki adapted the tour to us and even took us to a great place for lunch. We had loads of fun… arigato gozaimasu dear Naoki!!!!

Response from Host, May 2026

Naoki will be so happy to hear your kind words! We’re glad he was able to patiently guide you through Tokyo, adapt the tour to your interests, and help you enjoy a great lunch along the way.

Best Tokyo 1 day private tour with Mai!!

Debra_L, May 2026
We would give 10 stars for our tour guide, Mai!! It is our 1st visit to Japan & Mai was spectacular! She was patient, kind, knowledgeable and conscientious! Mai was very respectful & attentive. She gave us the perfect overview of Tokyo in a short period of time. Wonderful experience! Highly recommend!

Naoki was…. The bomb and...

Tran_L, May 2026
Naoki was…. The bomb and some more. We are avid travelers and we love traveling, but we understand tourist traps are really not what we enjoy…. And Naoki did just that, he went on the itinerary but listened to what we liked, and really allowed us to go to hole-in-the-wall places that catered to our liking. He spoke very well, jokes with us, and really made just feel like Tokyo is home. He made sure we got home safe by telling us which train to take. We would easily recommend Naoki to anyone.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you so much for your amazing review! We’re so happy to hear that Naoki made your time in Tokyo feel personal, fun, and comfortable. It’s wonderful that he listened carefully to your interests and helped you discover more local, hidden places beyond the usual tourist spots. We’re also glad his humor, communication, and care made Tokyo feel a little like home during your visit. Helping guests get back safely after the tour is also an important part of the experience, so we’re happy that stood out to you. Your recommendation means a lot, and we’re sure Naoki will be very happy to hear your kind words.

Busy schedule on trains...

Trevor_O, May 2026
Busy schedule on trains to see some great Tokyo attractions Good way to ease into the Tokyo way of life Guide was very knowledgable and friendly personality Excellent lunch guided by Lisa

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re glad to hear that the tour was a good way to ease into Tokyo’s way of life. Exploring the city by train can feel busy at first, so it’s wonderful to know that your guide’s knowledge and friendly personality helped make the experience enjoyable. We’re also happy that you had an excellent lunch with Lisa’s guidance. We hope the tour gave you a great introduction to Tokyo and helped you feel more confident exploring the city.

Ikuto - Our amazing tour guide

Jacquelyn_F, May 2026
Ikuto provided an absolutely fantastic tour for us. He was communicative before the tour and allowed us to pre-plan and customize our route, and arrived on time. Ikuto's English is very good and he was able to provide a bunch of interesting facts about all the places we visited. In addition, he was flexible with the pace of the tour to allow us to get around comfortably. Our experience was very positive and so much better than if we had visited those places on our own. Ikuto is a delightful young man and I highly recommend anyone to take a tour with him.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! We’re very happy to hear that your tour with Ikuto was such a positive experience. It’s great to know that his communication before the tour, punctuality, and flexibility helped make the day smooth and comfortable for you. We’re also glad that his English and explanations added interesting context to each place you visited. Tokyo can be a lot to explore on your own, so hearing that the tour made your experience much better means a lot. Your kind words about Ikuto will surely make him very happy, and we truly appreciate your recommendation.

Interesting sights and food

Elaine_D, May 2026
Maki was a great tour guide. My only complaint is that I thought we were going to the Imperial Palace but we did not. We did go to the Yanaka Ginza (quite a way's away from Shinjuku). The Ginza was very interesting, traditional appearance with lots of coffee shops, bakeries and souvenir shops. Lots of interesting items to buy and eat. Had a "Cookie Cake" which should have fed 2!!! Then went to Shibuya Crossing which everyone should experience. Lots of fun. THOUSANDS of people cross every day.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you so much for sharing your experience with us! We’re happy to hear that you enjoyed your time with Maki and that Yanaka Ginza and Shibuya Crossing became memorable parts of the tour. Yanaka Ginza is a wonderful area to experience a more traditional and local side of Tokyo, with small shops, snacks, and a nostalgic atmosphere, so we’re glad you found it interesting. Regarding the Imperial Palace, we apologize if there was any misunderstanding. The inner grounds of the Imperial Palace are generally not open for regular visits, and depending on the day, route, timing, and access conditions, we may guide guests around the surrounding areas rather than entering the palace itself. Thank you again for joining the tour and for your honest feedback. We’re glad that you still had a fun and enjoyable day exploring different sides of Tokyo.

Wonderful day@

Lynn_P, May 2026
We had an excellent experience on our customized private 8-hour Tokyo tour with Yuki. From the very beginning, he was patient, kind, attentive, and incredibly accommodating to our needs. He took the time to get to know us and understand what we were most interested in seeing, which made the entire experience feel very personalized. He was flexible throughout the day and responsive when we wanted to spend extra time exploring certain areas, tailoring the tour to perfectly suit our interests. This tour was a fantastic way to see many of Tokyo’s major highlights while also learning the history and cultural significance behind them. Yuki’s knowledge of Japan was impressive, and his informative explanations truly enriched our experience and helped us gain a much deeper understanding of the places we visited. Yuki was also an outstanding ambassador for Japan. It was clear how much he cares about his country and how proud he is to share it with visitors. His enthusiasm and passion made the tour even more memorable. Communication was excellent from start to finish. Yuki communicated with us beforehand, arrived promptly at the agreed time, clearly explained how the tour would work, and confirmed what we wanted to prioritize during the day. He did his best to fit everything in while still making the experience relaxed and enjoyable. We would highly recommend Yuki to anyone looking for a thoughtful, informative, and personalized tour of Tokyo.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you so much for your thoughtful and detailed review! We’re truly delighted to hear that your 8-hour private Tokyo tour with Yuki felt personalized, comfortable, and meaningful from start to finish. It’s wonderful to know that his patience, kindness, and attentiveness helped create a tour that matched your interests and pace throughout the day.

Hearing that his passion for Japan made the experience even more memorable means a great deal to us. Thank you as well for mentioning the smooth communication before and during the tour. We’re glad Yuki was able to make the day feel well-organized while still relaxed and enjoyable. Your kind words will mean a lot to him, and we’re grateful that you chose to explore Tokyo with us.

Best way to start a holiday in Tokyo

Sue_H, May 2026
Best start to our tour of Japan. We had 6 hours with our guide Zenji, and wish we had booked for longer. Zenji collected us from our hotel and took us around the highlights of Tokyo using public transport. He took us to shrines, and told us the history and etiquette to ensure we got the most from our visit. He chose a fabulous local restaurant for lunch in Tsukiji Market that we would never have found on our own. Local knowledge being invaluable. It felt as if we had a friend taking us around the city that could otherwise have been a daunting experience. We’re very glad to have had Zenji as our guide.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you so much for your beautiful review! We’re truly happy to hear that your 6 hours with Zenji became such a great start to your trip in Japan. It’s wonderful that he could help you explore Tokyo by public transport, share the history and etiquette of the shrines, and make the city feel much more approachable. We’re especially glad to know that the lunch spot in Tsukiji Market and Zenji’s local knowledge made the experience feel personal and memorable. Hearing that it felt like being shown around by a friend means a lot to us. Thank you again for choosing our tour, and we hope the rest of your journey in Japan was just as enjoyable.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you so much for your kind review! We’re delighted to hear that Mika was fantastic and able to make the tour comfortable for you. Her knowledge and willingness to accommodate special requests are exactly the kind of experience we hope to provide. It makes us very happy to know that the tour could be adjusted to your interests and needs, and we hope it added something special to your time in Tokyo.

Be prepared.

Rosalinda_T, May 2026
There is a lot of walking. Getting from one spot to another takes times as you use public transportation. Be specific about your meals. If you’re not adventurous about food tell them. Try to have a list of possible places. This way you get to see what you want.

Interesting information...

It’s great to know that your guide’s knowledge and flexibility helped make the experience smooth and informative.

Don’t waste your money

jeanageier, May 2026
Skip this one. Although our guide, Yu was super nice, she didn’t seem to be well informed about the city. Turns out, she’s lived here only a year. We spent way a lot of our day on the train or walking to the train. We started at the market but didn’t know we’d be going there first and we’d just had breakfast. That was kind of a waste although it was interesting to see it. The temple seems like a tourist trap. Very crowded and lot of vendors selling souvenirs. The palace might have been great but after taking forever to get there, turns out it was closed. I feel like our guide should have known that.

Response from Host, May 2026

Thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback. We are sorry to hear that the tour did not meet your expectations. First, we would like to clarify that all of our guides, including Yu, go through extensive training and testing before leading tours. While Yu has lived in Tokyo for approximately one year, she has completed our professional guide training program and has successfully guided many guests. Regarding the time spent on trains and walking, Tokyo is one of the largest cities in the world, and traveling between major attractions often requires the use of public transportation and some walking. This is a normal part of exploring the city efficiently. As for the visit to Tsukiji Market, many guests enjoy seeing the lively atmosphere even if they are not hungry, as it is one of Tokyo’s most famous cultural and food destinations. Senso-ji Temple in Asakusa is one of Japan’s most historic and iconic landmarks. It is indeed very popular and can be crowded, but it is considered an essential cultural site for many first-time visitors to Japan. Regarding the Imperial Palace, we sincerely apologize that part of the area was closed on the day of your visit. We understand your disappointment and appreciate your understanding. Thank you again for your honest feedback. We will use your comments to continue improving our tours and guide training. Warm regards, GOEN JAPAN TEAM

Dwight_D, May 2026
We have used Viator for many quality excursions; Europe, Southeast Asia, N.Africa, etc. However, our experience with our guide Naoki in Tokyo was by far the best. His engaging personality combined with his knowledge of the history, culture, cuisine ( including street) and the use of local transportation across Tokyo made the tour a once in a lifetime experience. Highly recommend the Tokyo private tour and ask for Naoki.

A Perfect Day in Tokyo and Ikuto

Alfred, May 2026
We had an outstanding experience in Tokyo thanks to our guide, Ikuto. He met my adult son and me at our hotel right on time, and from the start, everything felt easy and well organized. Ikuto connected naturally with both of us and made the day feel personal rather than scripted. We covered an incredible amount without ever feeling rushed, including Senso-ji Temple, Meiji Jingu Shrine, Harajuku, Tokyo Tower, TeamLabs, and the Shibuya Crossing. What stood out most was how thoughtful he was throughout the day. He shared meaningful context at each stop and kept things engaging the entire time. He also took us to a special ramen spot that turned into one of the highlights of the trip. Ikuto is knowledgeable, reliable, and genuinely enjoyable to spend time with. It felt less like a tour and more like exploring Tokyo with someone who truly cares about your experience. I would highly recommend him to anyone visiting.

Wonderful day in Tokyo

Ian_S, Apr 2026
We had a wonderful day in Tokyo with our fantastic private guide, Fuma. He was informative, understanding and assisted us in every way. Fuma took us to the Sensoji Temple area in Asakusa by train, something we could never have done on our own, considering Tokyo's complex train network! Fuma's cultural and historical knowledge was excellent, and we learned so much about the culture and religion of Japan in such a short time. He arranged the best shopping opportunities for us in the surrounding area, and found an amazing Sushi restaurant for lunch, before returning us safely to our hotel. A fantastic day, and we highly recommend Fuma if you're looking for a top-level private guide!

Great introduction to Tokyo that fit us perfectly

Douglas_C, Apr 2026
My wife and I can’t say enough positive things about this tour and our entire experience. Shoma understood that we were looking to see as much as we could in eight hours while never feeling rushed. He was able to plan out an itinerary that included temples, markets, great food, pop culture, historical landmarks, and wonderful insight into Japanese society and history. We got to become pros on the subway and got a great initial orientation of the city. Shoma is such an easy going, kind, and insightful tour guide. It felt as if we were all just good friends hanging out and talking. Shoma really went out of his way to make sure we were getting the exact experience we were hoping for.
