This is a private tour, limited to only your group per day. I will make your course follow your interests, or suggest some courses below, Course A: Ueno Park Course B: Walk around downtown Course C: Follow 'the Kimon’ Course D: Visit sites where you’d like to visit (I make a course for you) Course E: Sakura tour (spring special) (It's NOT guaranteed that the cherry trees will be blooming on your tour.)
Tokyo has many charming places and sites with histories or stories, so I can avoid crowded sites and take you to such sites.
Also, an OPTIONAL TOUR in which you visit a beautiful & older city than Tokyo, Kamakura. Please have a look at 'Option'!
PLEASE let me know which course you choose when you book a tour.
If you’d like to try authentic Japanese food, I could take you to a restaurant where common Japanese people go. Please let me know if you’d like to add having lunch (the tour price doesn’t include food).
