Description

I’m a Sumida local who loves this neighborhood and meeting people from around the world! Tokyo Skytree is amazing, but there’s so much more to Sumida! From old-school shopping streets and local food to hidden alleys and riverside views, I’d love to show you the places I know and love. Think of this tour less as a typical sightseeing experience and more like hanging out with a local friend! We can explore traditional neighborhoods, discover tasty local food, learn a few fun stories about Japanese culture, take awesome photos, or simply just wander around and see what catches our attention. There’s no need to stick to a strict plan! Whether you love history, food, photography, or simply exploring, we’ll customize the experience to match your interests. Since I live in Sumida, I can share the little details and local places that you might miss when exploring on your own. So, let’s go beyond Skytree! Explore, and have some fun discovering Sumida together. I can’t wait to meet you!
