Hi, I’m Erika, the founder of Elevate Tokyo. Born and raised in Tokyo, I also spent time living in the U.S. and Germany, which gave me a multicultural perspective while deepening my appreciation for Japan.

 

Growing up, I traveled often to visit family abroad, but Tokyo has always been home. Through these experiences, I’ve come to see Japan from both an insider’s and an outsider’s perspective—allowing me to bridge the gap for visitors who want to experience Tokyo in a deeper, more meaningful way.

​

Tokyo is a city of endless possibilities, but with so much to explore, it can feel overwhelming—even for locals. That’s why I’m passionate about curating personalized experiences tailored to your interests. My expertise lies in Tokyo’s culinary scene and cultural experiences, and as a fully bilingual guide, I can accompany you, translate, and interpret as needed—ensuring you don’t just see Tokyo but truly connect with it.

​

Let’s create a Tokyo experience that’s immersive, effortless, and uniquely yours. 

Elevate your Tokyo experience.
