Japan

Yuki K.

I was born and grew up in Yokohama. I used to work in Tokyo for more than 20 years. I became the National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter in English in 2013. At first, I had attended a volunteer group which provided a tour of the Imperial Palace East Gardens until 2015. I guided more than fifty times in the garden as a volunteer and studied about Japanese history and culture. Based on this experience, I became a tour guide of this online site in 2015. Since then, I have guided more than 500 tours in Tokyo as well as Yokohama, Kamakura, Hakone, Kyoto, Nikko, etc., while improving my tours. My tours are very flexible and I always do my best to customize them according to the interests of my guests. I studied about the places and will provide you knowledge to appreciate them deeper than just visiting there by yourself or a member of big group tours. I like foods and I know many restaurants which provide typical Japanese lunch with reasonable price without waiting too long. Therefore, I am sure that I can provide you the best tours customized to your interests. It will be my great pleasure to help you to enjoy your stay in Japan. So please be my guest!!

China

Cade J.

Hi, I’m Cade, a local guide based in Chengdu. If you’re planning a trip to China and feel a bit confused about how things work here - don’t worry, that’s exactly where I come in. I help travelers explore Chengdu (and beyond) in a simple and relaxed way. No complicated plans, no rushing around - just a smooth trip where everything actually works. - Want to see the pandas without wasting half your day in queues? - Need help figuring out trains, tickets, or how to get around? - Or just prefer having someone local to make things easier? That’s basically what I do. Most of my guests are not looking for a “tour guide with a flag”, but someone who can: - plan your route properly and make the most of your time - help you avoid common travel problems and tourist traps - stay away from overly crowded tourist spots when possible - experience the real local culture, not just the surface - keep everything transparent with no hidden costs - make the whole trip feel easy and smooth I’m flexible with plans, so whether you already have an idea or have no clue where to start, we can figure it out together. Just send me a message and tell me what you’re thinking.

“Wonderful Day in Nara and Osaka”

Even though the tour listed on GoWithGuide didn't include Nara, Akira was very agreeable to take us there in addition to Osaka. After our previous day with Akira when he took the 4 of us to Kyoto, we knew that it would be another great day and it was. We first visited Todai-ji Temple (Great Buddha) that was spectacular. Then the highlight of the day was going to Nara Park to see and feed the bowing deer. What an experience! Then we were off to Dotonbori District, a very interesting and entertaining area. Last stop was Osaka Castle, a beautiful site. As Akira did on our 1st day with him, he provided us with lots of interesting information about each site. It really was a pleasure having Akira as our guide and I highly recommend him if you are planning on visiting Kyoto, Osaka and Nara. Thanks again, Akira!

Hamada’s full day tour was AMAZING! He is extremely knowledgeable, speaks great English, funny, takes fantastic pictures for you and customised our tour to suit us perfectly (even picked us up from the airport!). We moved at our own pace and Hamada was happy to answer every single question we had. The lunch was delicious and came with a gorgeous view. Our driver was super friendly and always so prompt too!

“Wonderful Day with Akira in Kyoto”

The 4 of us were on the Celebrity Millennium and even though it was a long drive to the port, Akira was willing to pick us up and drop us off there. From the start, we knew we would have a wonderful day. He met us under the "giraffe" and was very friendly. His vehicle was spotless and he provided bottled water. We visited Kyoto's highlights: Fushimi Inari Taisha Shrine (known for its torii gates), Kinkaku-ji (Golden Pavilion), and Arashiyama Bamboo Forest. All were beautiful, but the best part was the detailed information about each site that Akira provided. He was very knowledgeable but also had a great sense of humor so we really enjoyed all that he shared with us. And he was very helpful especially when I had a bit of a time on uneven steps. It was a long day for us and for Akira, but we really enjoyed every minute of it. Fortunately, we also booked him for our day in Osaka and Nara (see my April 12, 2026 review)
