About

MEET YOUR GUIDE

Alex 

I’m half Australian and half Japanese, and I’ve found my way back to Tokyo through my heritage, a MASSIVE love for food, and a passion for connecting with people.

After spending ten years working as a sparky in Australia, and running my own Japanese street food business on the side, I eventually left it all behind to move to Japan and build something more meaningful.

Now, I share Tokyo’s history, traditions, and everyday food culture with visitors from all around the world, helping you feel comfortable exploring the city with someone who speaks the language and understands the local way of life.

Had a great time with Alex and a few other group members. Having someone who can speak japanese really helped us navigate the intimate moments with locals, despite us trying ourselves. It felt like we got all of the best parts of the city with none of the hard work. Highly recommended!
