About this tour

Tours run 2 to 8 hours, with guides collecting your preferences before you meet. Hotel pickup is included, making it straightforward if you're catching a connecting flight or just arriving. You navigate on foot; public transport fares and meals are separate.

What to expect
After booking, your guide will contact you to nail down what you want to see and the best time to start. You'll be picked up from your hotel, then spend the next few hours walking neighbourhoods at a pace that suits you. Your guide points out things you'd likely miss alone—a quiet shrine, a decades-old soba spot, a side street market. Walking is the whole point here; you're not hopping on trains or buses (those costs are on you if needed). The route stays flexible; if you spot something interesting, you can veer that way.
Good to know
Public transport is nearby if needed, but not included. Bring cash for food, drinks, and tipping. Prams and strollers work fine. Not suitable if you have serious back or heart concerns. Tours suit most fitness levels—let your guide know your pace.
