Tokyo Private English Walking Tour

Service Description

Discover Tokyo through its contrasts: the calm of a sacred forest and the bright energy of city life. This private walking tour takes you through four iconic areas at a comfortable pace, guided by someone who knows the city well and explains everything in simple and friendly English. We begin at Meiji Shrine, a peaceful Shinto sanctuary surrounded by a quiet forest. Here, you’ll learn the meaning of purification rituals, torii gates, shrine etiquette, and the history of Japan’s modern era. From there, we walk into Yoyogi Park, where locals come for picnics, music, and weekend gatherings. It’s a perfect place to understand the daily lifestyle of Tokyo residents. Next, we explore Harajuku, known for colorful street fashion, small boutiques, crepe shops, and unique youth culture. We’ll avoid the most crowded parts and also show you the smaller backstreets where locals actually go. Finally, we reach Shibuya, famous for its scramble crossing, neon lights, and the story of Hachiko. Your guide will show you how to enjoy the area like a local and recommend cafes, restaurants, and places to continue your adventure after the tour. This tour is relaxed, informative, and personal. Perfect for travelers who want to go beyond sightseeing and truly understand Tokyo.
