Private Tailor-made Akihabara Anime Tour with a Local Otaku Guide

About this activity

Every tour is 100% PRIVATE — just your group and me, never mixed with other travelers. The whole tour follows your favorite series, your pace and your wishlist.

"It's my first time visiting Akihabara, but I have no idea how to have real experiences I saw in anime..."

"I really wanna have an Akiba experience but I'm running out of time..."

"There's something I wanna get, but have no idea how/where to buy..."

For those who have such demands, I offer the tour that you can finish within 3 hours!

After meeting at JR Akihabara station and a short introduction, we'll go around places.

As a native Japanese Otaku, I'm sure that I can give you the right information related to Akihabara.

Also, we'll go to a maid cafe that I recommend the most out of 10 kinds of maid cafes I experienced in Akihabara, which is not well-known but is a must-see in my opinion!

I recommend you prepare some wishlists of what you're looking for/where you want to go, so I can arrange the tour as you'd like!
