Japan

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 more deeply than just visiting there by yourself or a member of 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!!

Mexico

I have been a volunteer local guide since 2018, during that time I have met people from all around the world which taught me a lot to interact with all kinds of people as well as to show my city in an authentic and interesting way. I like taking people to places that show the other Mexico city's face, a closer perspective to how its inhabitants live it day by day. History and photography are my other two great passions

Shailesh J.

India

Namaste My name is Shailesh and I have lived in Mumbai all my life. When I was young I used to play in the open fields and mess around down by my local stream with my friends. I used to cycle down all the local lanes, places that I take you on my tours even now, off the beaten track and a chance to see Bollywood city. My tours are very flexible and completely built to suit you. I drive to beautiful local places and tourist places and we frequently stop to take photographs and to walk around and also visit amazing market towns to stop for a bit of window shopping or just to admire the architecture. In between, we drive through amazing countryside and at lunchtime how about a traditional Indian meal for a pint and a bite to eat, or maybe a traditional afternoon tea? These are exclusive tours just for you and your party. Not only do I do one-day tours but as many as you would like, just let me know what interests you have and I can compose a tour for you each day. Depending on the duration of the tour days (more than one day), I can collect you from airports and Mumbai as well as any hotel you may be in the Mumbai and take you on one of these beautiful tours. I look forward to our experience together

“Excellent guide and great company ”

We started the day heading to Mt Fuji from Tokyo. A public holiday. What a traffic jam for 40 km. Moses was calm and smooth. So many examples of just how well he knew the area. Such a special Lunch. Follow his suggestions. I had seriously injured my knee a few yams earlier. He amended the itinerary to save me too much waking. And great conversations. Just book him

Thank you so much for your generous and kind review Michael. I am happy that you had a great experience in our trip. It was a blessing for me also to meet you and take words of wisdom from our conversation along the way of the tour. Haven't felt like it was a work for me but an experience meeting you with lots of intellectual ideas. Hope this is not the last but just a beginning. Looking forward to work with you again in the near future. God bless you.
