How your day could unfold
A flexible, unscripted experience designed entirely around your interests. Your host will adapt the day based on what excites you mostWhat you’ll do
Take Tokyo’s neon-lit skyscrapers, Osaka’s laidback vibe, and Kyoto’s combination of old and new Japan, then mix them all with a fresh ocean breeze: that’s Yokohama. From a historical port to the colorful Unko – er, poop – Museum, Yokohama is packed with diverse attractions that put the city on the map (and can’t even be found on a map).
But luckily for you, your host knows where to find both! From massive shopping complexes and the Cosmo World amusement park to the secret alleys at the ground levels of the Yokohama Landmark Tower, the central hub can get dizzying. And when you’ve had enough of ultra-modern, ancient Japan is just a train ride away in seaside Kamakura, home to the tranquil Kōtoku-in temple and its iconic Great Buddha.

Kenji was a terrific guide for our arrival in Japan. He helped us to get acquainted with the train system and showed us the highlights of Kamakura and Enoshima. We really enjoyed spending the day with Kenji!

Martina was an exceptional tour guide who truly enhanced our experience. She was incredibly pleasant and friendly, making us feel welcomed and comfortable throughout the tour. Her depth of knowledge was impressive, and she answered all of our questions with thorough and insightful explanations. Martina also found a lovely spot for us to have lunch, which was a delightful addition to our day. She was flexible and accommodating, always willing to stop wherever we wanted. Navigating through the train and subway stations was a breeze thanks to her expert guidance. Overall, Martina’s professionalism and warm demeanor made our tour unforgettable. Highly recommended!

We travel the world and have had many guides. Martina is by far one of the best. Her love of Japan is great, and it really comes across as she shares her knowledge of the country with her guests. She is efficient in all of the arrangements and goes the extra mile to make sure her guests are well cared for.

Anya made our first visit to Yokohama fantastic… she was able to meet all of our site requests and even offered to go over the end time to jam-pack all of the sites. She went out of her way to accommodate my gluten free and other dietary requirements which was really kind of her. We would highly recommend Anya showing you around Yokohama!
