"Gulay is a very experienced city guide, very enthusiastic with lots of ideas to show the unusual of her town. The standard sightseeing, you can always do on your own but if you want to see the special Tokyo, I recommend heavily to go with Gulay. First, she showed us the old culture and a little history of Tokyo to set the context. Then we went into the very modern fashion and entertainment world of e.g. harajuku youngsters, walking through the streets in old areas, getting all the hints and tips, finally ending up at the largest street crossing in the world. Also, she has an incredible amount of knowledge about Japan and Tokyo. Thats how a city tour should be conducted pumped all the major attractions you can see on your own or with a hoponandoff. Thanks a lot, Gulay🙏🙏😊"

"We were lucky enough to be shown around by Kennedy. It was our first day in Tokyo and we had no clue what to expect. First off we went to the train station and Kennedy explained how to purchase a train pass. one of our party did not have the Suica card on their phone (as he left it at home, sore subject!). We hopped on a train and soon had a much better understanding of how the underground system worked. We went to a shrine and had a lovely walk. We walked through the lanes with pop culture shops. It was very interesting. Kennedy found a great place for us to have lunch and helped us with the menu. Kennedy is a very intelligent and interesting guide with a great sense of humour, we thoroughly enjoyed our time with her and would highly recommend her!"

"I booked a full day tour for myself and my two boys (14 and 12) and initially wasn't sure if they would be able to push through but Abu was very accommodating with multiple food stops along the way. Inspite of the rain, we managed to see/do quite a lot! Abu was a fantastic guide and very knowledgeable. Highly recommend booking a tour with him!"

"We had a great day in Tokyo with Gerald. He gave us a lot of insight into daily life and showed us some hidden gems that became our favorite spots to return to. We walked 13 miles that day which was a lot but we saw so much and had so much fun it was worth the tired feet."

"Seden guided us through Tokyo for a full day, showing us the tourist hotspots but also many hidden gems. She was exceptionally welcoming, knowledgeable and friendly, accommodating all our requests and questions. Highly recommended "

"Gulay was a wonderful and knowledgeable host, we could have spent multiple days learning from her and discovering the many areas of the city. Was an excellent tour, would highly recommend to anyone."

"We had an amazing experience with Gulay in Tokyo! She was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and flexible throughout the entire tour. She took the time to understand what our family wanted to see and perfectly adapted the itinerary to our interests. She was especially wonderful with our children, keeping them engaged and making sure everyone had a great time. Her local knowledge, recommendations, and insights made us discover places we would never have found on our own. If you’re looking for a guide who is professional, warm, and truly cares about giving you the best possible experience, we can highly recommend Gulay. Thank you for making our time in Tokyo so memorable!"

"My 22-year-old son and I stayed in Akasaka for the first leg of our Japan trip, and someone recommended that we book a private walking tour. I am so glad we listened! Finding "Withlocals" and especially our guide, Sheilina, gave us exactly the authentic experience we were hoping for. We scheduled the tour for our second full day in Tokyo, which turned out to be perfect. By then, we had already figured out the subway system and met Sheilina at the Asakusa Culture Tourist Information Center. From the moment we met her, she was warm, knowledgeable, and incredibly easy to spend time with. Throughout the five-hour tour, we visited beautiful temples and shrines, explored local shopping areas, learned fascinating history and fun facts, and picked up so many practical tips that made the rest of our trip easier. She even showed us how to exchange currency at 7-Eleven (best exchange rates) and tipped us on getting prepackaged cooling towels for our neck. One of the highlights was lunch. She took us to an affordable local restaurant where we enjoyed wagyu beef that we cooked ourselves at the table. It was an experience we never would have found without her and became one of our favorite meals of the trip. The tour finished in Shibuya, where Sheilina gave us a great orientation to the neighborhood and pointed out highlights to explore on our own. We ended up spending another four hours wandering the area because we felt so comfortable navigating it after her introduction. Looking back, my son and I both agree that this was one of the best experiences of our entire Japan vacation so far. If you're visiting Tokyo and want more than just checking off tourist attractions, book a tour with Sheilina. You'll leave with a much deeper appreciation of the city and the confidence to enjoy the rest of your trip. Highly, highly recommended!"

"I opted for a private tour which Gerald created based on my interests. He could not have been friendlier - a very nice guy! The day passed quickly and was exactly what I was looking for. I would highly recommend. "

"Gulay was an awesome guide. She contacted me to see if I had any special interests and I told her I wanted to learn about the history of Tokyo. Gulay met me with maps and photos in hand and all of them were informative and helpful. We went from the Shogun Castle, through the history of the Emperors and the Imperial Palace up through World War II and into modern Japan. Fascinating information from an enthusiastic, well informed local guide. We even visited a fascinating shrine to the Japanese war dead. Gulay customized the tour to suit my interests and prepared an itinerary that fulfilled all I was looking for - and more. If you want a personalized tour of Tokyo, Gulay is the perfect choice for you. I recommend you take a tour with this very personable and well informed local guide for an outstanding experience. "
