About this tour
A bespoke walking tour of Tokyo shaped around your interests, whether that's fashion, temples, neighbourhoods, or family outings. You fill out a preferences form beforehand, and a local guide builds an itinerary just for you, then walks you through it over 4–8 hours. No fixed route means you see the city on your own terms, picking up insider knowledge and street-level navigation tips along the way. Meals and entry fees aren't covered.

What to expect
You'll complete a short form online describing what draws you—food markets, fashion districts, quiet parks, art galleries, specific neighbourhoods. The guide uses that to plot a walking route tailored to you. On the day, expect a measured pace through Tokyo's streets with plenty of pauses for photos, questions, and local recommendations. Your guide points out things you'd miss alone: side-street cafes, seasonal details, how locals actually move through the city. Conversation is the real substance; ask them anything about the neighbourhood.
Good to know
Admission to museums, temples and meals are your own cost. Public transport fares are separate. Bring comfortable shoes; you'll walk several kilometres. Submit any accessibility needs or dietary preferences in your questionnaire.
