Beat Tour Guide in Tokyo!
We had a great time with Yui! We saw everything we wanted to see, from shrines and temples, to the Team Lab and Legoland in Tokyo! She taught us so much about Japanese culture, language and lifestyle that she remained in our hearts as our Tokyo friend, we have to see you again!
Response from the operator: Thank you for your comment! I am so happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour. I really enjoyed showing you around to various places as well. Please do visit Tokyo again! I look forward to showing you around other interesting spots. Yui

Great guide for Tokyo
Yasuho Suzuki was an excellent guide. He knew all about the sights we went to see and he was able to answer all our questions. We wanted to visit a specific store which he had not heard of but he researched it and went out of his way to get us there. Yasuho was very personable and he made sure we got our senior discount as well as foreign visitor discount.
Response from the operator: Thank you for your warm comments on the tour and I’m really happy to hear that you enjoyed the itinerary though the weather was very severe with high temperature & humidity under very strong sunshine indeed. I do hope that you are coming back to Tokyo in more comfortable seasons. Best regards Yasuho Suzuki

Our guide Yoshi was...
Our guide Yoshi was amazing. Very knowledgeable, fun, and easygoing. He took us on a tour of iconic sites of Japanese culture and history while also providing insight into the sociocultural experiences of today's society.
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your wonderful review, which made me so happy. I really enjoyed the tour with you and your lovely family for 2 days. I was glad when I saw you enjoyed Sushi so much. I hope you keep enjoying your journey in the next places in Japan. Thank you again, from your guide, Yoshi.

Our two day tour with...
Our two day tour with Yoshi was wonderful. We kept to a great pace and Yoshi was wonderful in getting us to our requested places of interest in the most efficient manner. Highly recommend this tour if you are visiting Tokyo for 2 days.
Response from the operator: Thank you so much for your kind review. I was so happy to read it. I really enjoyed the 2-day tour with you all under the nice weather with wonderful blossom of cherry and tulip! I hope you had enjoyed your cruise ship journey after Tokyo. Thank you again, from your guide, Yoshi.

Exceptional Walking Tour
Kazu is an exceptional tour guide. He knows Tokyo inside and out. Over the two-day tour, we covered a lot of ground and saw many beautiful gardens and places of interest. He even arranged an exclusive tea ceremony where we drank matcha tea from a 400-year-old tea cup! Kazu’s pleasant personality and kindness made our tour a wonderful experience. Highly recommend this tour!
Response from the operator: Thank you very much for your kind words. Due to some technical problem of identification, your message arrived 4th JUN. Anyway if you enjoyed our two day's tour including Macha Tea ceremony, it is my great pleasure to assist your journey fruitful. Nevertheless, there are still many places to visit. Please visit Japan again and find out hospitality of local people. Thank you again KAZU HAKATA

Tokyo 2-Day Customized Private Tour with Licensed Guide: questions travelers ask
Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tokyo.
How much does Tokyo 2-Day Customized Private Tour with Licensed Guide cost?
+
Prices start at ¥17,600 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Tokyo usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.
How long does Tokyo 2-Day Customized Private Tour with Licensed Guide take?
+
Plan for about 48 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Tokyo is not rushed.
Is Tokyo 2-Day Customized Private Tour with Licensed Guide worth it?
+
It holds an Outty Ranking of 69 out of 100, which we label "Solid Choice". That score blends traveler sentiment (5/5 across 5 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable last minute in Tokyo, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.
Can I cancel or reschedule Tokyo 2-Day Customized Private Tour with Licensed Guide?
+
Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.
Is Tokyo 2-Day Customized Private Tour with Licensed Guide suitable for kids and families?
+
Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 48-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.
How far in advance should I book Tokyo 2-Day Customized Private Tour with Licensed Guide?
+
Around 2 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Tokyo can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.
What should I bring or wear?
+
Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Tokyo and add a light layer if any part of the 48-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.
Where does Tokyo 2-Day Customized Private Tour with Licensed Guide start and how do I get there?
+
The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Tokyo within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.
What are the best things to do in Tokyo?
+
Tokyo is less a city than a stack of neighborhoods with completely different opening hours. A guided food crawl through Shinjuku's Omoide Yokocho gets you past the no-tourist curtains, while the day trips west to Hakone and Fuji need an early start to be worth the fare. Our ranking weighs guide quality heavily here, because in Tokyo the guide is the product. On Outty we rank every Tokyo experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Best of Shinjuku: Izakaya Food Tour (3-4 Stops, 14+ Tastings), Tokyo: Asakusa Senso-ji Temple & Old Town Walking Tour, Matcha Making Class in Tokyo with Authentic Japanese Sweets Set. The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.
When is the best time to visit Tokyo?
+
Late March to May for blossom, October to November for clear Fuji views. Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.
How many days do you need in Tokyo?
+
Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.
Do I book through Outty or through the operator?
+
Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.
What is included in Tokyo 2-Day Customized Private Tour with Licensed Guide?
+
Included: Customizable Tour of your choice of 3-4 sites from List 1 & 2 for 2 consecutive days; Meet up with guide on foot within designated area of Tokyo; and Licensed Local English Speaking Guide. Not included: Accomodation, Meals, Transportation fees, Entrance fees, and Other personal expenses; Private vehicle; You cannot combine multiple tour groups; and Guide Entry fees are only covered for sights listed under What to Expect. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

+
Yes, pickup is offered for every traveler from 67 listed pickup locations in and around Tokyo. Be ready about 10 minutes before the start time.
What languages is Tokyo 2-Day Customized Private Tour with Licensed Guide offered in?
+
It is offered in Japanese and English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

+
Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

+
