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.

Jeff was an amazing guide and we thought the tour was great! We loved taking the train and seeing the temples and shrines in such lovely settings away from the hustle and bustle of Tokyo. Jeff was right there with lots of fun and interesting information and answers to any questions. Would highly recommend Jeff!
Chris was exceptional. He made our day so special. We have been traveling for almost two weeks in Japan with private tours every day, Chris has been our best tour guide, Chris even joined us on the train for one stop at the end of our tour to ensure we knew how to get back. All we can say is Wow!!!
We had a fascinating tour with Rafael, a passionate architect but also a great guide and storyteller. Drawing on his personal experiences and thorough knowledge of architecture, public planning and history, he transforms the way you walk around in Tokyo and look at its inhabitants. A wonderful experience!
