Our experience with City Unscripted in London was fantastic. Andreea provided a highly personalized private tour of Rome that went beyond just the main highlights. She offered deep insights into the city's history and symbolism, making the 5k walk incredibly engaging. Thanks to her recommendations for hidden gems, we discovered so many new places to explore. It was the perfect way to get our bearings for the trip.

City Unscripted delivered an exceptional experience in Rome. Gerry, our local host, was incredibly accommodating and attentive to our needs. Instead of sticking to the standard route, he customized the itinerary based on our interests and even took us to some lesser-known spots. His flexibility and friendly approach made the two-hour tour truly memorable. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a personalized sightseeing experience in London-based City Unscripted tours.

Our experience with City Unscripted in Rome was fantastic. Alex went above and beyond by speaking both Italian and English, which was incredibly helpful for our group since some of our cousins only spoke Italian. He shared fascinating details and pointed out hidden gems we likely would have missed on our own. He also recommended a lovely café for breakfast at the end of the tour. Additionally, the team was very flexible and moved our tour to an earlier time to avoid the intense heat.

She skillfully tailored the route to suit my pace and interests, adding fascinating local details that brought every stop to life.

My experience with City Unscripted in London-based tours was excellent. We booked a private Hiroshima excursion led by Maryam. The planning was straightforward; we coordinated the schedule via WhatsApp and got a fully customized route. Maryam’s English was clear, and she provided fascinating insights at every stop. The day included visits to the Atomic Dome, the Museum, and the serene Peach Garden. We also took a train to Miyajima station followed by a ferry ride to the island. It was a well-balanced trip covering both major landmarks and hidden gems.

If you are visiting Kyoto, City Unscripted’s Arashiyama Bamboo Grove tour is a fantastic choice. Our guide, Jose, truly made it special by taking the time to get to know us beforehand and tailoring the experience to our interests. His flexibility made the day run smoothly. The kids absolutely loved feeding the monkeys in the forest. Just a heads-up for families: the forest is located at the top of a steep incline, so be prepared for a serious leg workout—it’s like climbing a 40-story building!

Fumiko did an amazing job showing us Osaka. She really knows her way around, balancing the famous spots with some lovely hidden gems. Her tour was fully tailored to our interests, and it was so engaging that we already know we’ll have to go back to Kyoto to see what we missed.

If you are in London or abroad, City Unscripted delivers an exceptional experience, and our tour in Osaka with Kanna was outstanding. She clearly put thought into curating a personalized itinerary that moved beyond the typical tourist spots. Punctual and fluent in English, she matched our energetic pace perfectly, helping us cover a lot of ground in just four hours. I was especially impressed when she arranged a last-minute tea ceremony to suit my interests. She shared fascinating historical context, captured some wonderful photos, and ensured we were comfortable throughout, even ending the day with a delicious meal at a hidden local gem. Highly recommend booking with her!

City Unscripted delivers exactly the kind of personalized experience they promise. We spent three hours in Asakusa and at Skytree Tower with Toshiki, and his guidance was superb. Despite being over 65 and moving a bit slower, we never felt rushed. He was incredibly patient, constantly adjusting the pace to suit our needs while keeping us engaged. His deep knowledge of Tokyo combined with his genuine ability to listen made the tour feel tailored just for us. If you are looking for a private guide in London or beyond who truly cares about the guest experience, I highly recommend him.

I had an amazing one-day experience in Tokyo with City Unscripted, and our guide Kyoko was the star of the show. Since we only had twenty-four hours, having a private tour was essential for making the most of our time. Kyoko and I stayed in close contact beforehand, and she did a wonderful job helping us design an itinerary that fit our interests perfectly. With Tokyo’s subway system being so tricky to navigate, I couldn’t imagine how we would have managed to hit all the key spots—Shibuya, Meiji Shrine, Omotesando, Harajuku, and Takeshita Street—on our own. Beyond the logistics, she offered excellent recommendations for dining and even tracked down a shop where we could get Godzilla merchandise for my son. She was incredibly accommodating and a delight to spend the day with. Big thanks to Kyoko and City Unscripted for such a personalized adventure!

Our experience with City Unscripted in London was fantastic, largely thanks to our guide, Belinda. I was specifically looking for a host in Tokyo who could speak both English and Tagalog, and she was the perfect match. From the moment I reached out, her communication was excellent via email and WhatsApp. She even sent over a detailed itinerary beforehand. Since we were on a tight layover, I had to change plans just days before the tour, asking her to adjust the route so I could meet a friend. Belinda was incredibly flexible and revised everything smoothly. She was kind, helpful, and made sure my husband, baby, and I visited some truly beautiful spots in Tokyo without feeling rushed. I highly recommend her and the team for a seamless and enjoyable walking tour.

I highly recommend the Private Sake Tour with City Unscripted in London-based Aya. She is incredibly knowledgeable about premium sake and knows exactly where to find the best spots in Shinjuku.

If you are looking for an authentic sake experience in Tokyo, I cannot recommend City Unscripted enough. Our guide, Sami, led us through a fantastic itinerary that paired each sake sample with complementary snacks. The highlight was definitely the final stop, where we got to sample a massive variety of brews with no restrictions. Sami was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing detailed insights about the sake-making process and offering plenty of interesting facts about the city. She also went above and beyond by visiting the famous Hachiko statue at our request, which was a real hit with my daughter. It was simply a wonderful day out.

Diana made our time in London truly memorable. As someone whose Spanish has rusted a bit (unlike my partner, who is fluent), I really appreciated how she tailored the tour to help me brush up on the language. She paced herself perfectly, mixing in Spanish explanations while keeping me engaged, and switched to English only when necessary. Her patience was outstanding. Beyond the language practice, she was incredibly knowledgeable about the area and even shared some great tips on where to grab a bite. It was a delightful and informative experience at City Unscripted.

Our guide Gerg organized an excellent walking tour of Amsterdam through City Unscripted. He carefully followed our pre-tour requests and added plenty of interesting details. The itinerary covered the main sights while providing rich historical context. Gerg was engaging, knowledgeable, and easy to talk to.

She was punctual, incredibly knowledgeable, and made the whole day feel personal. Having a dedicated guide meant I got to see the National Gallery and all the hidden gems without the hassle of a big group. I even loved when she took me to a special shop for Swedish fabrics!

Cheryl strikes the perfect balance between laid-back and professional. Meeting us in the hotel lobby, she made navigating the local train system a breeze, which would have been a struggle on our own. We dove right into the rich migrant history of Chinatown and the Hawkers Market, gaining a deeper appreciation for Singapore’s food culture. Being quite hungry, I was eager to sample everything; Cheryl expertly guided me through the options and secured a wide variety of dishes for us to try. I was full to the brim quickly, though she playfully tried to tempt me with more treats! We then visited a traditional dessert shop for some delicious mango pomelo sago pudding. Cheryl even tailored the itinerary to accommodate my next stop in the Peranakan district. It was a fantastic day filled with lots of walking in the heat—perfectly compensating for all the delicious food samples. I highly recommend Cheryl for this tour.

If you book a tour with City Unscripted in Taipei, ask for Ben! I had a fantastic time on the night market street food tasting with him. He is an incredible guide who really knows his stuff and pointed me toward some amazing local eats—I never thought I’d love stinky tofu, but Ben changed my mind! His English is flawless, even for a native speaker, and he made sure the experience felt personal and memorable. If you want a unique, authentic way to soak up the local culture, I highly recommend requesting Ben for your City Unscripted tour.

Booking an 8-hour tour in Paris through my employer felt like a gift I wasn't initially sure I wanted, but I was thrilled I gave City Unscripted a chance. My guide, Marc, made the experience exceptional. He proactively reached out the night before to customize our itinerary based on my preferences.

By the end of the day, it truly felt less like a formal tour and more like exploring the city with an old friend.

My guide Cosmo made for a fantastic morning exploring London's hidden art scenes. Being a local artist himself, he clearly has a deep appreciation for the street art culture and knew exactly where to find the best pieces. It was a great way to combine history and exercise while wandering through the city's back alleys. Cosmo was incredibly engaging, always smiling, and packed with knowledge about the artists and their techniques. I found it fascinating to learn about how the city refreshes its street art every few years to support new talent. He even shared his own portfolio, which was a lovely personal touch.

Our Paris private tour with City Unscripted was a standout experience. Our guide, Del, was incredibly engaging, positive, and attentive to detail. She did a great job balancing the popular highlights with some hidden gems, all while keeping a close eye on us. I’m particularly grateful for her quick thinking when she noticed a pickpocket trying to get into my bag. She didn’t hesitate to call them out, which scared them off and saved my belongings. My phone, cash, credit cards, and sunglasses were all safe. Thanks to Del, our first trip to Paris was full of wonderful memories and fantastic photos she took for us. I highly recommend her as a tour guide.

Spending just a few hours in Osaka before heading to Tokyo was the perfect opportunity to book a private tour with City Unscripted. We arranged a personalized three-hour experience with Fumiko, who went above and beyond. She reached out ahead of time and met us at the station, where her help with the subway system made navigating the city incredibly easy. Fumiko shared fascinating history at Osaka Castle and guided us through the vibrant streets of Namba and Dotonbori.

It was an efficient and enjoyable way to see the highlights and hidden gems of Osaka with a local expert.

I hired a local guide in Sapporo through City Unscripted who was a Danish expat living in Japan for a decade. He spoke fluent English and Japanese, making him the perfect match for our needs. We booked a half-day private tour specifically to get a solid orientation of the city and see the main sights at our own pace. He was incredibly helpful, even calling several restaurants ahead of time to secure reservations for the next day, which allowed us to relax and enjoy our trip without stress. The guide was flexible and let us move at a leisurely pace, though I’m sure he can do a fast-paced tour if you prefer. Since he is based in Japan and communicates in English and Japanese, just keep that in mind when booking. It was also a nice touch that he was interested in Korean culture, which made our conversations very comfortable. Highly recommended for a stress-free, personalized Sapporo experience.

She managed to craft a well-rounded itinerary despite the tight timeframe and remained super flexible with our schedule. We squeezed in a lot of sightseeing, and honestly, it wasn’t nearly enough time—I only wish the tour had been longer. I’d happily book another tour with them in the future.

Muwa was an exceptional guide who really made our first day in Tokyo unforgettable. She provided great local insights and helped us navigate the train system with ease. It was the perfect orientation to the city. If I could do it again, I would have definitely booked a longer tour with City Unscripted!

I had a wonderful half-day tour with Rui from City Unscripted in London. She was incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, guiding us to both popular sights and hidden gems that we never would have found on our own. A big thank you to the team for such a memorable experience!

Had an amazing 4-hour tour in Tokyo with Jordyn from City Unscripted. She has a fantastic grasp of Japanese and a genuine passion for the city. Jordyn is friendly, intelligent, and really intuitive—she quickly figured out exactly what I wanted to see. She was super helpful throughout the experience. Thanks, Jordyn!

Spending a half-day exploring Tokyo with City Unscripted was a highlight of our trip. Our guide, Rui, was fantastic at getting us to the specific spots we wanted while expertly maneuvering through the massive crowds in Asakusa. Given how busy it was, her advice on navigating the train stations was invaluable—it was definitely more enjoyable and efficient than we would have managed on our own. Rui is a genuinely lovely person to spend the day with, and she also shared some great restaurant recommendations for our hotel area in Shinjuku. Highly useful tips!

I highly recommend the private Tokyo tour with City Unscripted. Our guide, Shuto, was fantastic and truly went above and beyond. He crafted a personalized itinerary that perfectly matched our interests and showed incredible knowledge throughout the day. If you are visiting London-based City Unscripted for a trip to Japan, this is an excellent choice.

The booking process in London was a bit clunky, and I struggled a bit to find the meeting point for City Unscripted. However, once the tour kicked off, the guide was excellent. He really knew his history and delivered a great presentation. It’s a shame the initial communication wasn’t smoother, but the actual experience on the ground was very good.

City Unscripted really delivered a fantastic start to our Japan adventure. Nobu was the perfect guide for a first look at Tokyo—he was warm, engaging, and incredibly helpful. He even met us right in our hotel lobby to get us set up with Suica cards and showed us the ropes for using the subway system. His knowledge was impressive, blending insights on modern living with interesting historical tidbits, which made exploring neighborhoods that can be tricky to navigate on your own a breeze. To top it off, he arranged a lovely dinner and helped us secure tickets for our next leg of the journey. Highly recommend this service for a genuine introduction to the city.

City Unscripted delivered an authentic Tokyo experience that felt far removed from the typical tourist trail. Jonny was a fantastic guide who led us to some truly hidden gems, including a memorable sake tasting that was the highlight of the trip. The local food was excellent, and the personalized itinerary made the whole outing well worth the price.
