Japanese Calligraphy ActivityPrivate Tour
Experience1 hr 30 min

Japanese Calligraphy Activity

Den-en-chofu Station is a sophisticated town full of greenery and history, selected as one of Japan's 100 best stations. Compared to the bustling downtown area, the townscape is calm, but transportation is convenient. Try calligraphy, which represents Japanese culture, at a calligraphy school located in a convenient location just a minute's walk from the station. We provide thorough instruction starting with basic exercises, so even beginners can participate with confidence. You will also have the opportunity to experience the rare practice of grinding ink. We have several examples of single Chinese characters prepared, but you may also request to write your preferred character. At the end of the session, you will complete a piece to take home as a souvenir, which we will stamp and present to you. This experience is available not only for adults but also for children.

Unlimited Sake Tasting Dinner Course by a Five Star Chef

First of all it is important for participants to understand why we are here to do private tours. Our mission is to provide a "more meaningful authentic experience" to all that signs up for our "The REAL Local Tokyo for people who do not want AVERAGE" tour. Therefore our tours are different from others since: 1. We try our very best to make this package something that is nothing alike to the other average Tokyo tours you will see on many sites. 2. We try our very best not to pick spots that are solely designed to please the eye of a tourist(i.e. something that may look typical Japanese to overseas clients may sometimes be a form of fabrication in the eye of a local) 3. We try our very best to pick spots that are not overly crowded with tourists so that participants can enjoy "quality time in a quality space" instead of quantity time in an overly packed space. *a minimum of 2 people are required for this package. The maximum amount of people we can take is 10.

Half-Day Edo Tour with Asakusa Traditions, and Hidden History

In this tour, I will guide you through not only Asakusa's famous landmarks but also its lesser-known sides—stories and places that even many Japanese people don't know. I believe that to truly understand Japan’s history and culture, it's important to explore both the light and the shadow. Having worked with many tour guides, I’ve noticed that most focus only on the “good” side of Japan—saying how wonderful everything is. While I love my country, I also think it's important to show a complete picture, including the difficult and complex parts of our past. I’m passionate about sharing Japan with people from around the world. With experience guiding over 300 international visitors, I offer a unique, honest, and interactive tour. Each tour is private—only one group per session—so we can communicate freely. Feel free to ask questions at any time. I look forward to exploring Asakusa with you!
