Through Tokyo with our local guides
Together with our Japan Office, we have created an unforgettable insight into the metropolis with our local guide Shinij Muto. Discover Tokyo with completely new eyes.
Arrive and discover
As soon as you arrive, you will feel the special energy of this city. Overwhelming, vibrant and full of surprises - a guided tour with a local guide is the perfect choice to not only discover the highlights but also to explore the hidden corners.
Our guide led us through narrow alleyways and winding streets in Shinjuku and Asakusa, away from the tourist crowds. Here we learned the stories behind the hidden shrines and small craft workshops - places we would never have found on our own. These insights made the experience particularly intense and authentic.

The "Tokyo Special" tour with a local guide was a trip that offered more than just the well-known sights of the Japanese capital. Tokyo is a city that is constantly changing and at the same time deeply rooted in its traditions - and it was precisely this interplay of modernity and history that we were able to experience at first hand on this tour.
Authentic connection is the key
What made this tour so special was the authentic connection to the different facets of Tokyo. Away from the crowded streets and tourist hotspots, the tour guide opened the doors to lesser-known but no less fascinating places. We could feel the traditions of Japan in the hidden alleys of Asakusa and at the same time experience the vibrant life in modern neighborhoods like Shinjuku.
