Experiencing local with Carlos
"Doing the food tour with Carlos made our stay in Tokyo very special. Carlos was very knowledgeable about the food and how it is prepared. He also gave a perspective what life is like for the locals. Carlos was easy to talk to and helped us navigate many of the Japanese customs. The tour was way more than just a food tour, I would certainly recommend Carlos as a local guide. "

Lovely time in Shibuya with Sena
"We had a great time with Sena in Shibuya and Harajuku. Unfortunately we were slightly late and it was pouring with rain, but Sena was happy to adjust so that we still got so much out of the tour. She speaks perfect English, is very kind and highly recommended!"

Amazing food tour with Ai
"Ai took my family and I to a variety of stands and restaurants which allowed us the opportunity to try many different, unique dishes. She was very accommodating and patient to help make it family friendly for our 3 year old. She also honored our request for some tasty craft beer and provided extra recommendations after the tour was finished. Highly recommended!"

A friendly and fun intro to Tokyo
"We really enjoyed our tour with Gulay and really felt we were being shown around by a friend. She gave us a tour of the Shibuya area of the city, taking us across famous Shibuya scramble crossing and introducing the kids to the crazy capsule dispenser shops - much to their delight! Gulay gave us some great tips for restaurants and also showed us the best place to buy our Shinkansen tickets. She also gave us some really helpful advice both before and after the tour. "

Perfectly tailored tour
"This was the perfect intro to exploring bustling Shibuya! Gulay took our preferences and interests into account when showing us highlights of the area and telling us stories about its history that resonated with everyone in our group. Gulay is immediately friendly and enthusiastic and great with kids too. Thank you Gulay!"

Great Start to Tokyo!
"My teenage son and I spent our first afternoon in Tokyo with Gulay and we couldn't have been happier. She was lovely and personable and within minutes of being with her, she gave us a tip that made our whole trip so much easier. She answered our questions, shared interesting information and showed us newbie tricks to help navigate the city. She also gave us a recommendation for an area we wouldn't have found on our own (which has been our favorite so far!). Thank you, Gulay, for a wonderful and helpful start to our trip. I just wish we could have have had more time with you!"
