Besides showing the landmarks like Kaminarimon Gate and Tokyo Skytree, Ryo will accompany you to many lovely temples and shrines around the area.

Asakusa is a distinctive place to have both a Buddhist temple and a Shinto shrine next to each other. You will also be able to know more about the religious views among Japanese people.

Finally, Ryo will take you to Nakamise Shopping Street, where he will explain the origin of Senso-ji Temple while showing various illustrations. Also, he will tell you how the temple has been loved and supported by a variety of people, from locals to the generals of different periods.

The host, Ryo has 6 years of experience working in Asakusa as a rickshaw driver and is passionate about introducing Japanese culture and history through the exploration of Asakusa. He would also be happy to tell his insights with humor from the perspective of a local Japanese comedian. Let’s enjoy to take a deeper look into Asakusa, the most iconic historical site in Tokyo!

We had an absolutely fantastic tour with Ryo! From the very beginning he was warm, personable, knowledgeable and professional. On top of that, he’s simply great company, his sense of humour and energy made for a relaxing and engaging time. What really sets Ryo apart is that you can book him directly, which makes all the difference. Unlike other companies where you are randomly assigned a guide, with Ryo you are getting a great guide. We can’t recommend him highly enough, a highlight of our visit to Tokyo. Shame we didn’t have more days as we would have really like to see his stand-up comedy show.

High recommend taking this tour if you're in the area and want to learn more about the local culture. Ryo is a very knowledgeable and engaging guide.
We liked him so much, we asked if he could accompany our family everywhere on our two week vacation to Japan.

We had an amazing experience touring Asakusa with Ryo! Not only is he incredibly knowledgeable about the area and its history, but he's also a talented comedian who kept us laughing the whole time. Ryo was very patient, answered all of our questions thoroughly, and even took time to snap photos with us. His friendly and engaging personality made the tour feel personal and memorable. We highly recommend booking a tour with Ryo—he truly made our visit to Asakusa special!

This was a very first tour we went on in Japan, and we had severe jet lag from arriving the day before. Our guide,Ryo, was personable and considerate. He knows a lot about culture and religion, and helped us understand Japan a lot better. He also helped us navigate the crowds around Sensoji in Asakusa, and he did a great job of explaining the history of the temple and its meanings. The two hours we spent with him flew by as we walked around the area and got an introduction to cherry blossoms, renting, kimonos, and the meaning of Buddhism and Shinto.
Great morning

I had a great morning with Ryo in old neighborhood of Asakusa including the Senso-ji temple and Asakusa shrine. He explained some important details that I’d missed by myself.
