It was really tood and I will recomend it to everyone I know!

This is what I posted on Facebook about my experience with Mayumi. It was fantastic! I've been finding ways to have a more local experience vs. sightseeing... Tokyo Free Guide is a non profit of volunteers who want to help overseas visitors experience Japanese culture and customs. My guide, Mayumi, took me around Tokyo for 7.5 hours yesterday. We rode the trains, walked almost 8 miles, ate lunch at a hole-in-the-wall okonomiyaki restaurant, and learned a lot about each other. She is probably ten years older than I am, and dreams of becoming an official guide for the 2020 Tokyo Olympics. So she’s flying to The Philippines later this month for an intensive 2-week English course. Guiding lets her practice her English, and she has made friends from all over the world. And yes, it was all free! A highlight of the day was running an errand with her in Shibuya to pick up a photo of her 3-year-old granddaughter. She explained that in Japan, they celebrate children’s “coming of age” days. Her granddaughter was photographed in a gorgeous kimono. This photo is of a 100-day celebration for babies, their first “eating ceremony”. I thought it was adorable that the baby isn’t old enough to eat any of the food in front of him and he looks so happy! :The name of the guide is Mayumi Fujihashi.

Tour familiar por Tokyo guiado por Akio El 4 de julio pasamos un día inolvidable recorriendo los lugares más embleméticos de la mano de Akio. El trato con el guía no pudo ser mejor. Familiar, cercano y muy ameno. Nos recogió  puntualmente en el hall del hotel y previamente contactó con nosotros via email para saber qué queriamos visitar y de esa manera diseñar un tour personalizado a nuestros intereses. Hablaba un perfecto español, lo que nos ayudó a comunicarnos con él sin ningún problema. No solo nos guió a los lugares más importantes sino que también nos contó curiosidades de la cultura japonesa. Tokyo Free Guide muy recomendable para aquellos que quieran visitar Tokyo. Akio magnífico guía. :The name of the guide is Akio Nakamura.

A wonderful tour of Tokyo I am so happy with my guided tour of Tokyo with my amazing guide Shinya Iino. Right from the start Shinya-san  wrote to me and proposed a wonderful full day tour based on my interests. He was extremely well prepared, and arrived with a full load of tourist pamphlets and booklets for my stay in Tokyo, very considerate of him.  We visited temples and shrines, the Imperial palace, had a wonderful lunch on Tokyo Ramen street and later Japanese tea and sweets and finished our day on a wonderful water taxi.  Perfect!  Thank you so much Shinya-san for all your diligent work to prepare for our tour.  I will certainly recommend Tokyo free guides to all my friends. Fantastic service. :The name of the guide is Shinya Iino.

I am Ha, from Vietnam. Many thanks to TFG. I was grateful and happy to have Ms. Midori Akabane as my guide. She is a charming lady with very good knowledge on Tokyo. She took care of me all the whole trip and so nice to welcome me on the first day in Tokyo although our tour date was 3 days later. I had very good time on our day trips, especially in Kamakura. I learned a lot from her about knowledge, thoughtfulness and  delicateness. Thank you very much Ms. Midori and TFG. This is the best memory in Tokyo for me.

Siamo felici di aver conosciuto e apprezzato la vostra cultura. Interessante e molto utile la guida che ci accompagnato per mezza giornata alla scoperta di una Tokyo fuori dai percorsi turistici standard, facendoci conoscere e apprezzare lo stile di vita del vero giapponese. Speriamo di poter ritornare presto. Grazie infinite alla nostra guida Michico Kono per il tempo e la pazienza che ci ha dedicato nel rispondere e cercare di esaudire tutte le nostre domande. :The name of the guide is Michiko Kono.

Thanks again to Mitsuru and TFG for offering your time and hospitality! It was such an amazing experience and opened my eyes to so many things in Tokyo that I would not have understood or appreciated. :The name of the guide is Mitsuru Owada.

Motoki was an excellent guide. The service is unique if you want to experience Tokyo with a local. We discovered places we would not have found without him (such as cosy bars and delicious okonomiyaki restaurants). Not to underestimate the usefulness of having someone speaking japanese. You just need to indicate what you are up to and your wish shall be true. :The name of the guide is Motoki Sakauchi.

I really enjoyed and appreciated the service received. Teizo was very kind helping us organizing our trip and suggesting things to do and see. He had a wonderful knowledge of the city and helped us organizing also the other days we spent in Tokyo. :The name of the guide is Teizo Tsuruyama.

  Estamos muy agradecidos al guía KEN KINOSHITA. La experiencia de recorrer Tokio con una persona local hizo que nuestras vacaciones fueran diferentes. El guía ha sido muy amable, amistoso, muy informado y claro en las explicaciones. Nos gustaría, especialmente, agradecer a Ken Kinoshita su solidaridad ante un inconveniente sufrido en Tokio en días posteriores a la visita guiada.. Recomendamos esta visita a nuestros amigos así como también al guía. :The name of the guide is Ken Kinoshita.

Koichi is a very special guide. We learn a lot of things with him, and we recommend 100% to all the people who visits Japan and want to know something different than the ordinary sightseeing. :The name of the guide is Kouichi Yamazaki.

Only a word: AMAZING. The experience with Akio was amazing. He is fantastic and we learnt a lot from his knowledge. He is very patience and he try to be excellent all the time sharing his knowledge about the city. I will recommend everybody to take free tour guide if they come to Tokyo, specially with Akio. :The name of the guide is Akio Watanabe.
