Welcome to our Kawagoe walking tour collection

Discover the soul of one of Japan’s best-preserved merchant towns on a private Kawagoe walking tour. We’ll stake you for a leisurely stroll through the Samurai-era Kurazukuri district, where the iconic Toki no Kane bell tower still marks the time.

As your local English-speaking guides, we’ll lead you through the atmospheric “Little Edo” streets, the rich history of Kitain Temple and its Edo Castle remains. Along the way, we’ll pause to taste traditional street food—from popular sweet potato treats to local traditional sweets in the famous Penny Candy Alley (Kashiya Yokocho). Let’s visit the serene spiritual heart of Kawagoe, Hikawa Shrine—one of Japan’s oldest shrines famous for its matchmaking traditions. Every step is a journey into the past, with a custom itinerary designed to show you the most authentic side of Kawagoe.
