Message from Taiji

Hi! My name is Taiji, born in Japan, raised in Paris for 16 years, graduated from international high school and set in Japan since college. Throughout the years, I became more passionate everything about my country and now have 2 certificates on English and French to guide over Japan.

Because of my international background, the difference with other Japanese guides is I really share the same passion foreign visitors have with Japan because of a similar filter to my country, and also able to optimize the plan according to each visitors interest.

If you request me, let me know what is your point of interest, what experience you are looking for. I will be happy to suggest and share the best souvenir with you.

Have questions about your desired itinerary, how many hours you should book or any special requirements you might need? No problem, contact the charter provider below!

Please note that the inquiry form is currently in Japanese (we are working on the English version right now), but it is very simple. Just fill in a title, your question and then click the yellow button. That's it!

We enjoyed a second wonderful day on our visit to Japan with our guide Taiji. After a very long day visiting Mt. Fuji, we embarked on a city tour of Tokyo by planning a more leisurely pace. Starting the day by introducing Taiji to his first "Costco experience" was a fun and relaxing way to wind down from the previous day, then we quickly got back into busy mode for the rest of the day until dinnertime.

After a very long day visiting Mt. Fuji, we embarked on a city tour of Tokyo by planning a more leisurely pace. Starting the day by introducing Taiji to his first "Costco experience" was a fun and relaxing way to wind down from the previous day, then we quickly got back into busy mode for the rest of the day until dinnertime. Taiji adjusted quickly on the fly to our fickle plans but managed to combine great food, sightseeing, and shopping into one full and memorable day, including extra trips back to our place to drop off some of our shopping bags! Thank you so much again for showing us a great time in Tokyo, Taiji. We will certainly be back soon!

Thank you so much. It was a great pleasure, fun and experience for me too, especially Costco as you say, to have you too and I really hope to see you again in the near future.

Enjoyable private tour!

We are 9 persons with grandparents & children; Mr Phang is speaking mandarin, as we requested 6 hours private tour to visit some places:
1. Shimokitazawa Area
2. Ameyoko Market
3. Harujuku- Kiddy land
4. Rikuen Garden

Mr Phang is very good tour leader, he guides us how to walk around Ameyoko Market.

My families feel very comfortable to have a tour arranged, with very reasonable price compared with other website. Recommended to all travelers!

Family Friendly with the right pace and highlights

Excellent tour by an excellent guide (Tom Harada). Very knowledgeable, patient , flexible and was great with the kids. Tom also ensured we got to see the important sights and experience the key highlights and more importantly was always ensuring our welfare was the highest priority. Highly recommended

Excellent Tour

Norikosan, our guide made the day really memorable. She kept the day simple, on track and her local knowledge was invaluable.

The visit to the Tokyo skytree was easy - no waiting in line, Norikosan purchased the tickets and fast tracked our group.

Odaiba's giant robot - she knew that the best time to see this was in the evening and Norikosan made sure that we arrived just as the show was starting - made my day

Veltra have a great team on the ground in Japan.

Thank you so much for your warm words and awesome photos!!! I also really enjoyed the day with you all! Please say hi to everyone and let us know when you come back to Japan. I will ask the giant robot to dance more with light steps next time; ) Thank you very much again and take care! Noriko

Actually, there was a very recent news about a project to set up a Gudam witch will be able to move by 2020 in Yokohama, so I'm sure your wish will become true.(Taiji)

Very nice places

Hello, I want to recommend Veltra because everything was always very professional with the people who organize it. Amy, super good, gave me a thousand recommendations.
The super patient guide and driver recommended that my children go to places that he knew they would like because of their age.
What I didn't like very much was that the food was very long, it was good that they had the experience but it was too long which we wasted time there.

Hello, thank you for choosing our Tokyo 6-hour tour. We believe your family enjoyed highlights of Tokyo with historical place visit, traditional Japanese foods in one of the best Washoku restaurants in Tokyo and Japanese sub-culture shops. Looking forward to serving you again soon with another itinerary. Thanks again and best regards,
Teddy.
