Tokyo private tour using subway: Discover traditional and modern Japan!
Don't you think it would be great if a local guide familiar with Tokyo makes a perfect itinerary that satisfies your interest? Wouldn't you like to know a bit more than what are written in your guide book? Would you like a cheerful and friendly guide who tells you history and background of each spot?
If you say "yes", why not enjoy Tokyo sightseeing with me? What are you most interested in? History, culture, religion, custom, food, art, architecture, fashion, latest amusement, everyday life of Japanese, or all of them?
