Firstly, it is crucial for participants to grasp the purpose of our private tours. Our mission is to offer a “more meaningful authentic experience” to everyone who joins our “The REAL Local Tokyo for people who do not want AVERAGE” tour. Our tours stand out from others because:
- We strive to create a package that is unlike the typical Tokyo tours found on many websites.
- We make every effort to avoid selecting locations that are merely designed to appeal to tourists (i.e., what may appear typically Japanese to international visitors might be seen as artificial by locals).
- We are committed to choosing spots that are not overcrowded with tourists, allowing participants to enjoy “quality time in a quality space” rather than spending time in a congested area.
- we will be walking a lot during the whole trip (estimated steps: 10,000-20,000 steps)
