“We booked a private tour as we only had one day in Tokyo and we wanted to see as much as possible. Our guide was Yuta and we could not have asked for anyone better. He was polite, knowledgeable and had a great personality. Yuta took us to the Meiji Shrine, Harajuka area, Takeshita St, Shinjuku and we finished at a lovely restaurant he recommended for us. He even stayed to help us order authentic Japanese meals. Yuta is also a photographer so he took some amazing photos along the way. If you are looking for a guide in Tokyo we would highly recommend him.”
