Saqib was very helpful and kind since the moment of the booking, he organized an itinerary to explore Tokyo in a long layover we had. I highly recommend his services to anyone who wants to explore Tokyo.
Drfcoamaya –
Excellent service, took us to the main highlights of the city, and explained important facts about the culture and life in Tokyo.
Will recommend this service.

I had an incredible day with Akil seeing a lot of the top highlights Tokyo has to offer. Akil was knowledgeable, kind, and helpful during my tour. I highly highly recommend him to anyone who wants to get the most out of their trip to Tokyo! All the best, Akil!

The best way to discover the highlights of Tokyo
Ali, our driver, was very fluent in English and knowledgeable about the city and the touristic attractions.
The tour was totally flexible according to what we wanted to see and the timing that we had available.
We spend more time than the original planned and Ali was flexible to extend his services with a very affordable rate per extra hour.
We had a blast and are cloying back home very satisfied.

Our driver/guide Ariq (hope we have spelt that correctly) was prompt, courteous, friendly and knowledgeable. Being escorted by him for our first day in Tokyo was a great way to see the major sights. He was totally flexible in adapting to our needs and preferences. Highly recommended.

The communication before the trip was excellent. My questions were answered in a timely manner and the driver reached out the day before the trip to confirm pick-up at my hotel. The itinerary was customized to meet the interests (anime) and needs (to buy JR passes) of our group including friends and family. This trip highlights Tokyo. I thought the itinerary was appropriate for a first trip to Tokyo. With that said, I was disappointed with the vehicle. It was immaculate but definitely no where near luxury- my Uber from the airport was better. The driver was timely, polite, drove safely and spoke English but could only tell us the name of each stop. I understand I hired a driver and not a tour guide, but I would liked to have more information as a first time visitor. Overall, I was not impressed with the price of nearly $600 USD. So manage your expectations on this tour but you would be better off taking an Uber from location to location.

Saqib did an amazing job catering to the different needs of our family during this one-day Tokyo tour. He picked us up at the hotel and drove our extended family of 14 around Tokyo in his large van, hitting some of the main tourist spots like Meji Shrine, Imperial Palace, Shibuya Crossing, and Shinjuku Gyoen Garden, while also including spots like Akhibara and Odaiba that he thought the kids in our family would particularly enjoy. I really appreciated the communication in advance of the tour and his flexibility during the day – pulling over so we could make a quick McDonalds trip when the kids got hungry and helping us source some spots for the kids to find special Pokémon cards. Honestly couldn’t have asked for a better guide! Thank you Saqib!
Shirley C –
Our day tour was wonderful. It felt a bit rushed since we had many places to visit in one day, but we knew we could go back to some of the places on our own the next day. A big thank you to Ali who was very professional and courteous.
Sara Y –
Danish was a great driver, he was reliable and punctual. The car was comfortable. My family and I had a good time, and saw a lot of the major highlights of Tokyo in one day.
HUMBERTO L –
Danish was very accommodating and was willing to take us wherever we wanted without any hesitation and always with a smile. I will recommend him to all my friends and family who come visit Tokyo
Ashu P –
It was a wonderful experience for us. We were a group of 10 and had reserved a 14 seater van through Ohayo Travel (Saqib’s Company). Saqib always responded promptly to all queries while making the booking.
Saqib was right on time for the pick up from our hotel. He had perfectly planned our itinerary & was very flexible with us if we wanted to make any changes. He was very cooperative, polite, and friendly. His driving skills were excellent and safe. In addition, he was very well-traveled and incredibly well-informed. We got a great guide in him. Him being multi-lingual (Japanese, Urdu, Hindi & English) was a plus.
We thoroughly enjoyed his company & service.

Our driver/guide, Hussein, arrived early. He was friendly, knowledgeable, and professional. His vehicle (A Toyota Alphard) was clean and comfortable.
Hussein put together an excellent 1 day driving tour of Tokyo. He was familiar with the tourist sites that we wanted to visit and provided interesting commentary on all of them. Hussein has excellent English language skills and there was never any communication difficulties.
My wife and I are planning on visiting Tokyo again and will use Ohayo Travel for our tours.
Patricia D –
Ahmed was wonderful! He was very knowledgeable and accommodating by parking as close as possible to venues as I was having trouble walking. He returned to the office to get a box so that I could more easily enter the van. The tour was flexible enough so that we could include a couple of our specially requested stops.
Arnel P –
We finally saw Mt Fuji after we rebooked when the weather cleared up. Our guide showed us most of what you can see around Mt Fuji. It was great and worth the wait. Definitely recommend this tour.
Deon R –
My wife and I were extremely impressed by the service Hussain has given to us today. He went far and beyond his point of call to accommodate our wishes in every way. We highly recommend Ohayo Travels and special mention and thanks to our tour guide Hussain. Thank you so much for making our day and holiday special.

It was one of the best experiences I’ve had traveling internationally. Our driver/tour guide (Ahmed) was very helpful and knowledgeable about everything Japan.

My family really enjoyed this tour. We visited terrific spots to enjoy views of Mt Fuji and local surroundings. Oshino Hakkai and Oishi Park were particularly outstanding. Danish was an excellent tour guide and gave us time to wander. I would do this tour again if given the opportunity.
Maki H –
The tour was great! Super convenient! FYI no guide but still great! It’s great to be able to cover a lot of places in a day. When you include public transport it takes up more time.
The driver gave us plenty of time to explore each places. I loved it and I highly recommend.

We were delighted with this tour. We only had one day in Tokyo before departing for a cruise. Danish, our guide was excellent and we saw so many wonderful sights. I would highly recommend this tour and Danish.
Dennis R –
With a well chosen places of interest and our very good english speaking driver Danish, our private tour was a pleasant experience. We were given ample time at every stop, and a guidance for the street navigation. The tour was rather long (from 9AM to 6PM) but we had lots of fun and gained quite a good orientation within the major tourist attractions of Tokyo.
Recommendable for sure.

Danish was very patient and took us around Tokyo. He was in no hurry and was even willing to give recommendations outside the itinerary. Was a very pleasant experience.
清水 友 –
I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude for the amazing full-day Tokyo tour experience I had with your guide. It was an unforgettable journey filled with incredible sights and rich cultural insights.
Our guide’s knowledge of Tokyo was impressive, and their passion for sharing it with us was evident throughout the day. From exploring historic temples to savoring delicious local cuisine, every moment was a delight.
The personalized attention and small group size made the tour feel intimate and allowed us to ask questions and engage in meaningful conversations. It was evident that our guide was dedicated to ensuring we had a memorable experience.
I can confidently say that this tour was the highlight of my trip to Japan, and I will cherish the memories forever. Thank you, Ohayo Travel Japan, for providing such a remarkable day in Tokyo. I look forward to booking more adventures with your company in the future.
Angel d –
Danish was simply great!! I just had one day in Tokyo and I managed to see almost everything in Tokyo!!! The day was not great as it was raining, however was a fantastic day thanks to Danish expertise and suggestion. Thanks
Fabiola B –
We booked this driving through Tokyo tour with less than one day notice! It was perfect. Our driver was Adeel. There are no words to describe how wonderful and fantastic he was with my mother and I. The company suggested some sites but we had already been to some of them and we provided Adeel the list of sites we wanted to see. He took us exactly where we wanted to go and didn’t force any other sites on us. The tour was to start at 9am the day after we booked it. Adeel contacted me close to 7am to inform he was going to be delayed by 30 minutes due to traffic and an accident on the road (he was not involved in the accident, he was just stuck in traffic). Then the company contacted me not long after Adeel had texted me, to explain the same thing. We were not in a rush and we understand that traffic and accidents on the road can cause delayed. However, I do appreciate the communication from both our driver and the company. Adeel remained in constant communication and providing updates on his time of arrival. Adeel arrived around 9:05am and our tour started. We asked a few questions regarding traveling to other places and to and from the airport. Adeel promoted his company if we needed other tours within Japan and for airport pick or drop off. We will keep this company in mind for a future trip. You can tell that Adeel is a very dedicated and hard working person. He loves his job and loves to work for this company. If we knew of all the other services the company offered beforehand, we would have booked them with this company.
If you come to Japan and you don’t want to deal with getting lost in the trains, book this driving tour through Tokyo. It was one of the best decisions we made. Oh! I almost forgot, Adeel’s car was very clean and Adeel was also very professional and appropriately dressed for this drive, nothing fancy but comfortable. My mom is 75 years old and wanted to do a little souvenir shopping and Adeel patiently took us to a site to see Gozilla (one of our selected sites), and allowed us to stay a bit longer so my mom could shop in a nearby store. Adeel was very communicative and explained where he will park and where he will meet us after we went to each site. I totally loved Adeel’s attitude through the entire day. Thank you for the great experience. The driving is through Tokyo was a great value given how lost you can get with all the trains and how far sometimes you have to walk to some sites. I will highly recommend this driving tour through Tokyo. I would ask for Adeel as the driver. He speaks English, Urdu, and Japanese. Adeel was very respectful, polite, and extremely kind.

Hassan was on time, nothing was a hassle. We agreed a plan on the day and he took us around negotiating heavy traffic without complaint. He met us at agreed pick up times and found us when we got ourselves lost. Lovely clean people mover to drive us around.
R E –
This is a must do if this is your first time visiting Tokyo, like it was for us. This is the largest most densely populated city in the world and to be able to have someone drive you around to visit historical sites and tourist attractions was a blessing! Our driver, Danish, was excellent! He spoke great English and really knew his way around along with the history of each site. We toured the Imperial Palace, the Tsukiji Fish Market, the Senso-ji Temple, the Meiji Jing Shrine, the Tokyo Sky Tree, the Takeshita Market, and Shibuya Crossing. It was a long day but well worth it and I would definitely recommend this private tour and tour driver!
LUZ RODRIGUEZ –
This is a GREAT TRIP if you do not have enough time in Tokyo. Our driver, Danish, was also the guide. He did not provided detail information but he answer our questions. He was also polite and was making sure that we were comfortable. We recommend this company.
Lexie –
Exceptional experience with Ohayo Travel on our one-day Tokyo tour in November 2023! The private car and English-speaking guide provided a seamless and personalized adventure. My wife and I were thoroughly satisfied with the service, making it a day to remember. 100% recommend Ohayo Travel for a top-notch tour in Tokyo!

Excellent guide! Knowledge and flexible to our needs! He even spent more time with us just to make sure we had a good feel for Tokyo.
Pamela A –
Adeel, our Tokyo Tour guide was Excellent! He communicated with me prior to our leaving the USA for Japan and again after we arrived. Adeel has excellent English and was very easy to understand and knew Tokyo and its highlights. He arrived exactly on time and made this an amazing experience. Adeel is an excellent driver and even though driving in Tokyo is challenging, he was always calm and courteous. We felt safe with him as our driver/guide. He went out of his way to make seeing Tokyo a wonderful experience! Thank you
Michael A –
Excellent driver, English was wonderful, knew his way around Tokyo. When we were away from the car he was very responsive to What’s App chats or calls. Highly recommend. Good photographer, he took our pics of us.
Marwan M –
The tour was very insightful and informative, also Mr. Adeel (Our Tourist guid) was really helpful to give us a brief about Tokyo’s history
Jose Ar(Mando) Flores –
Danish was a great guide despite the rainy day! He was very helpful in guiding us and keeping us going and a couple of great places to eat besides the sites we were able to visit.
Gina S –
We had Hassan as our driver, he showed us around Tokyo. I gave it a 4 because we had done 3 of the things on the day trip tour. Over all with was great, I would recommend it specifically if you are visiting for the first time.
Ramona M –
We were in Tokyo during a few rainy days. Booked this tour as a way to still see all the sites while minimizing travel time. Adeel was excellent! He had a set plan of places to go while allowing the flexibility and ensuring we got to see everything we wanted. Also, he knew all the tips and tricks to minimize waits, walks, and the best photo locations. I would highly recommend this tour with Adeel. He was genuinely nice and concerned about ensuring we had a great experience.
Val H –
Our tour was a combination cruise-to-hotel transfer and all-day private Tokyo tour. Our driver Adeel was terrific, on time, excellent communication, clean comfy car. We had 2 of the original tour sites he planned booked for the next day which was no problem. Adeel was able to substitute 2 other sites. In total we saw and explored 5 of the “big” Tokyo sites Adeel is a very knowledgeable guide! What I love about walking with a private tour guide is I learn so much more about the sites than what I can read from a guide book. In addition, we had lunch at a conveyor belt sushi restaurant which was on my to-do list. Over it was a wonderful first day in Tokyo
johnnydiam –
Adeel was one of the best tour guide we ever had. He had answers to all our questions and his English was quite fluent (something not seen often in Japan).
He is a good driver and was always willing to serve our needs.
The trip itself focuses on important sightseeing in the town, but in any case, you can alter the program after discussing your thoughts with Adeel.
P.S.: He is a great photographer as well! Let him help you save the nice moments of the trip!
Thank you for the pleasant time
Belinda C –
Our tour with Hazim was very enjoyable. He was very friendly, helpful and very accommodating with being flexible to take us to things we wanted to see, even when we changed plans part way through the day.
He paid attention to detail and noticed if we mentioned something that we may be interested in and gave us useful information. I would recommend this private tour, especially if this is your first time in Japan.
Arslan T –

Faisal N –
It was our first time in Japan and a guide was a must. We needed someone to give us some context and explain us how to get around since everything was in Japanese. We had way more than that. The guide was extremely nice and thoughtful. He took care of everything and planned everything so we could have the best experience ever. We had a blessed and we would definitely recommend anyone that is going to Japan to get in touch with.
