Is this a traditional tour or something different?

This is a fully personalized experience, not a traditional scripted tour. Your local host tailors the itinerary to your interests, such as culture, history, neighborhoods, or hidden local spots.

How does personalization work?

After booking, you complete a short questionnaire to share your interests and must-see spots. Your local host then contacts you to create a fully personalized itinerary.

Will I know my itinerary in advance?

Yes, you can discuss and confirm your plan with your host before the tour, while still allowing for flexibility and local surprises.

Can I request specific places or types of stops?

Yes. You can share your preferred spots in the post-booking questionnaire, and your host will tailor the tour around them.

Will we enter attractions or just explore from the outside?

It depends on your preferences. Some stops may include entry, while others focus on exploring neighborhoods and local culture with guidance from your host.

Are food and drinks included, or do I need to pay separately?

Food and drinks are not included unless specified. You can order and pay for meals at the spots your host takes you to.

Chiara for Tokyo and Shimizu

Chiara was our guide for both Tokyo and Shimizu. She has excellent English skills and is very easy to talk to. She was very thorough in her planning to ensure our needs were met. My wife has mobility issues she ensured that the walking was minimised. This was greatly appreciated. Her research on the places we visited was impressive. She is also a foodie which was great as she got me to try different foods. Thanks Chiara

YoShimi was exceptional guide

YoShimi did an exceptional job taking us to very specific places we’d requested and suggesting additional places for us to visit. We had a wonderful day and could never have seen as much in one day without a guide.
