Really enjoyed our Yanaka Backstreet walking tour. Out tour guide Yuki was fun, knowledgeable and really knew her stuff. This neighborhood is quite different from other parts of Tokyo with art boutiques and studios, little cute shops, lots of young people and many temples and quietness. Highly recommended!
