★★★★★★★★★★4.9 · 469 reviews · 2 - 8 hours · from $53

A practical review of Tokyo’s private walking tour, with local guides, flexible routes, temples, markets, neighborhoods, and subway tips.

“Miwa is the warmest spirit to get to know Tokyo through. She is intelligent and taught my family and I about history, pop culture, and local spiritual customs. The experience was meaningful thanks to her. On top of that she went out of her way to make sure that we felt confident and independent going forward with our trip without her. I can’t recommend Miwa enough!”

Review of Tokyo’s private Lokafy walking tour, with local guides, flexible routes, metro help, neighborhood tips, pricing, and practical advice.

“Eduardo was prompt, polite, friendly and knowledgeable. His English and Japanese was perfect. We wanted to learn the transport system, see Tokyo from a high rise, find a Pokémon centre, get a good tip for lunch, see Cherry blossoms and something cultural. Every box was ticked; from our accom in Shinjuku to Ikebukuro and Akasura temple in just 3 hours. Couldn’t have asked for better.”

“Don’t do this tour! A complete waste of money. It was very boring and the guide was very weird and made my kids and I feel very uncomfortable. He kept taking pictures of my children without asking and took a couple of the group; he said to prove to the company he in fact did the tour. When I asked him to take a picture of me and my kids, he said he was not allowed to do that, but yet kept taking unauthorized pictures of us, specifically of my 13 year old dauther.
