Knowledgeable,courteous,helpful,friendly guide. Olivier made every effort to tailor the tour to our interests, dining choice was outstanding, a great day!

Just OK-Do not recommend for the cost

Two hours is not enough and the two hours includes travel time on the subway so beware of that. That should be disclosed upfront.

Perfect start for Tokyo

Amir is a very friendly guide, he introduced us to Japanese lifestyle and culture. Very nice experience and great for getting started in Tokyo.

Sandra_M · June 2026

A great walking experience in Tokyo!

A great walking tour with the guide meeting us at our hotel. We had visited the main sights of Tokyo before so we picked some lesser known parts that we hadn't visited before. Oli was a great guide, very knowledgeable about the area and easy to be with. We used public transport with his help which is payable on the day.

Tokyo Private Customized Walking Tour (Option Car Tour Available): questions travelers ask

Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Tokyo.

How much does Tokyo Private Customized Walking Tour (Option Car Tour Available) cost?

+

Prices start at €20 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 Private Customized Walking Tour (Option Car Tour Available) take?

+

Plan for about 2 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 Private Customized Walking Tour (Option Car Tour Available) worth it?

+

It holds an Outty Ranking of 79 out of 100, which we label "Strongly Recommended". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.6/5 across 294 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 Private Customized Walking Tour (Option Car Tour Available)?

+

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 Private Customized Walking Tour (Option Car Tour Available) suitable for kids and families?

+

Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 2-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

How far in advance should I book Tokyo Private Customized Walking Tour (Option Car Tour Available)?

+

Around 103 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 2-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

Where does Tokyo Private Customized Walking Tour (Option Car Tour Available) 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 Private Customized Walking Tour (Option Car Tour Available)?

+

Included: Private walking tour or option to upgrade to private vehicle; Hotel pick-up within Tokyo; Assistance with booking tickets for attractions; and Personalized itinerary based on your interests. Not included: Drink or Food; Tickets to any attractions; and Tips (Optional). Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

+

What languages is Tokyo Private Customized Walking Tour (Option Car Tour Available) offered in?

+

+
