Tokyo Private Tours: Authentic Experiences with Local Experts 


Private tours unlike any you've experienced before. Our local experts share the stories that only locals know as they dive into history, architecture, food, religion and more. When you leave a Tokyo private tour with Context, you'll feel deeply connected to the city and its culture.

Experience the Context difference with our multifaceted approach to discovering cities: through walking tours, audio guides, and online lectures. All of our Tokyo experiences cater to travelers with a thirst for knowledge.

Our private tours provide an intimate exploration of the city’s streets, unveiling stories and sites often missed. Complementing this, our audio guides offer a rich narrative journey, perfect for independent exploration at your own pace. For a deeper dive, our engaging pre-trip talks bring to life the history, culture, and hidden secrets of each destination, all from the comfort of your home. Together, these elements create a comprehensive and enriching travel experience, unique to Context.

On private tours, our guides take you beyond the standard tourist paths, unveiling Tokyo's intriguing history, awe-inspiring landmarks, and bustling neighborhoods with a depth and insight unmatched by ordinary tours. Imagine exploring the Tokyo National Museum's stunning collections with a historian on your very own private tour, delving into the intricate world of Japanese aesthetics and design with an architect, or embarking on a day trip to witness the majestic Great Buddha of Kamakura. Learn about the history of Anime and pop culture of the city, or taste your way through the famous markets and bustling neighborhoods. Each Tokyo private tour offers you more than just a visit to a bucket-list destination; it's an immersive journey into the deeper context of the city's history.

Itsuka did an amazing job of first summarizing Japanese history and art, and then guiding us through the museum to illustrate the points that she made. She highlighted the differences between Western art and Japanese art, and the influence each had on the other after the opening of Japan - and tied it all back to differences in the two cultures. Quite impressive!
Our guide had an excellent understanding of modern Tokyo architecture- and showed how it relates to historical Japanese architecture, culture and religion.
We really enjoyed our tour with Jefferson (Jeff). Not only was the tour informative but he also made it a lot of fun. He provided a history of Tokyo and how food played such an important role but also interjected with fun facts that you wouldn’t normally learn. The pace and content was perfect and we ended at a Izakaya with drinks and sampled local Izakaya cuisine while Jeff shared more laughs and stories from his experience of moving to Japan. We highly recommend this tour!
