Thank you Taka, for the wonderful experience we had today. The shrine was very beautiful and breathtaking. The visit to the fish market and other places were memorable. I would love to return to Tokyo with my children and grandchildren in near future to be shown around by your Tokyo signature tours.Read full reviewShow less

Today we had the pleasure of discovering Tokyo together with Taka, a very special guide. He was very kind, helpful, and very knowledgeable, able to tell us about the city in an interesting and never boring way, introducing us not only to the most beautiful places, but also to many small details of Japanese culture and life.Read full reviewShow less

Apy Thank you for the curated guided tour of Tokyo spanning two days in September. My niece and I had a wonderful experience with you, seeing, traveling and learning. You displayed both a keen interest in getting us to our requested destinations but did so with an interest in us. Although my designated itinerary had many more places to visit than time or body would permit you did an excellent job of giving us an insider’s look at Tokyo and prepared us to take our first baby steps seeing the city on our own Best regard, Ron and Melissa.

My husband and I used Tokyo Signature Tours for a recent holiday trip to Tokyo. We reached out a month earlier to set up our guide, and the prompt response back and continued communication was first rate. Taka was always very prompt and respectful. Our guide Kay meet us at our hotel on time, and did a fantastic job of showing us the beautiful temples and shrines on our tour. He was very friendly, he loved the history of the temples, and his faith made the tour very rewarding. My husband and I couldn’t have asked for a better guide. I would highly recommend Tokyo Signature Tours for a wonderful day of temple and shrine tours.Read full reviewShow less

As we planned our first trip to Tokyo from the US, we sought out a company to provide a private tour of the city. We found Tokyo Signature Tours. We arranged our tour on our first full day in Japan. The owner, Taka, met us at our hotel and led us on a walking tour through the city, using public transportation to get to various areas. A few of the locations included the Meiji Jingu shrine, the Kaminarimon Gate and Senso-ji Temple, Shibuya Crossing, Skytree, and the Ginza shopping area. To our surprise, Taka’s family owns a restaurant, Ueda in Ryogoku. Taka politely offered his recommendation to Ueda and we accepted. Taka shared his time with us over a fantastic Korean BBQ/ yakiniku-style meal. Taka is knowledgeable and speaks English fluently. He is friendly and courteous, and willing shares details of the Japanese culture that we otherwise would not have known. We were extremely fortunate to have found Tokyo Signature Tours and highly recommend Taka to others who wish to see Tokyo. We met as strangers and left feeling like family.Read full reviewShow less
