TESTIMONIALS
The private walking tour of Tokyo was a breath of fresh air on an extremely hot and humid day. Flexible itinerary, adaptable program and a bespoke conversation that delighted our diverse tourist group. Nobu was attentive, kind and extremely accommodating - all the while providing us with useful and smart information without being overbearing. Highly recommended.
Looking forward to the next tour!

Thank you Nobu for a wonderful tour today. It was so enjoyable, informative and fascinating 👏 👍. We covered so much ground in seeing the highlights of down town Tokyo. It took a lot of the stress out of working it all out ourselves! We loved it and will recommend you to our friends 😊

Wow! Nobu gave us such an awesome tour. We got checked out local eateries and local sightseeing around Tokyo. Nobu made us feel at ease with handling our request on what we wanted to experience. Such a great time but also a memorable one that we wouldn't have gotten without his expertise and knowledge of the area and historical facts! Highly recommend to connect with him if you're in the area!

"An Unforgettable Tour Experience in Tokyo"
I recently had the pleasure of being shown around Tokyo by Nobu, and I can honestly say it was the best time l've ever had exploring a new city. From the moment we met, Nobu's warm and welcoming personality made me feel like family.
His deep knowledge of Tokyo's vibrant shopping centers and exciting event venues turned the tour into an incredible adventure.
Nobu took me to fantastic spots that I wouldn't have found on my own, including trendy shopping districts and lively venues where we could truly soak in the local atmosphere. Each location was carefully selected, and his passion for the city was evident in every stop we made.
We even stumbled upon some hidden gems that added a unique touch to the experience!
What stood out the most was how Nobu genuinely cared about making my experience special. He went above and beyond to ensure that I was comfortable and happy throughout the tour. I left Tokyo not just with incredible memories but also with a new friend.
I highly recommend Nobu to anyone looking for a local guide in Tokyo. I can't wait to return to Japan, and I know that whenever Nobu needs anything in California, I will be there to reciprocate his kindness. If you're looking for someone who is knowledgeable, friendly, and truly passionate about sharing the excitement of Tokyo, Nobu is your guy. He is a gem, and my experience with him was nothing short of exceptional!

A very nice and smart tour-guide with a great knowledge of the history of japan, especially Tokyo. He showed us incredibly impressive places we wouldn't have found without him. We'll be back to book him once more! Great experience.

Nobu was an exceptional local tour guide! Going on a tour with him was the highlight of my Japan trip! Not only did he customize the itinerary to my preference, he went above and beyond and gave me options along the way to cater even more to preferences. He is knowledgeable in Japan’s history, facts, culture, locations, restaurants, and tradition; I learned so much more from him than my weeks of research. It did not feel like a typical, boring tour, but rather, Nobu made it feel like I was immersed in Japan as a local as well. He is the best tour guide to take you on a unique journey and give you the best experience of Japan. His English and Japanese is perfect, and he speaks Spanish and Mandarin too, so there was no language barrier and the conversations were seamless. I highly recommend Nobu!

It was a pleasure to be guided by Nobu during the trip. His knowledge and experience has added greater depth to the sites we visited. The food recommendations he suggested were delicious! Memories have been made that will last a life time. He is genuine with an easy going personality. Felt as if I was traveling with a good friend rather than a tour guide. Will definitely return back and book with Nobu again-highly recommend!

Nobu was highly recommended to us by friends who had recently been in Tokyo, and he was everything we could have hoped for in a guide! Having spent his teen years in the US, his English was perfect, and he tailored our tour to avoid places we were scheduled to see on another tour the next day. Instead, he found us some hidden gems!
For the most part we used the Tokyo subway system to get around. And since it was our first full day in Japan, he gave us an on-the-fly transit orientation as we navigated our way through the system. He even knew where the escalators and hidden elevators were, to minimize stairs for my sister, who had had her hip replaced earlier this year.
We said hi to the Godzilla statue and cocoon tower in Shinjuku, then visited Shibamata, a little town with a very 1960's Tokyo vibe, as well as a Buddhist temple with fabulous 3D carved dioramas and a tranquil garden.
Shabushabu for lunch, then off to the Tokyo Skytree, with its panoramic views, although Mt. Fuji was shy, and stayed hidden that day.
In Shibuya we saw the famous Hachiko the faithful Dog statue, and finished our tour at the busy busy Shibuya Crossing. What a fun first day in Tokyo to begin our Japan adventure!
Like the friends we mentioned earlier, we highly encourage you to consider Nobu for your tour guide in Tokyo!
5 stars!!!
