Akita Private Tour Guides

“Samurai and Food”

Tomio was fantastic, every experience was great and he was extremely knowledgeable about the area and foods of the area. With his tour, I met more people than any other tour that I'd been on and made the experience unforgettable in the best way. I strongly encourage everyone to experience Kakunodate with Tomio, you won't regret it! Thank You, Tomio!

“Akita 1 day private tour”

Kenichi-san was an outstanding tour guide in Akita. He took us to the Our Lady of Akita, Lake Tazawa, Tsurunoyu Onsen (Nyuto Onsen area), and Kakunodate Samurai Town, and he made the whole day smooth, comfortable, and genuinely enjoyable. He is very helpful and attentive to detail—always checking timing, weather, walking conditions, and the small practical things that make a trip stress-free. He’s also knowledgeable, explaining the background and local stories in a clear, engaging way without ever rushing us. Throughout the day he was cheerful, friendly, and easy to talk to, which created a relaxed atmosphere from start to finish. If you’re looking for someone professional, warm, and reliable in Akita, I highly recommend Kenichi-san. He’s the kind of guide who truly elevates the experience, and I would gladly book him again and recommend him to others.

Dear Soeyantho-san, Many thanks for your utmost appreciation, very grateful! Thanks to your beautiful family members’ good behaviors, we were very much blessed with pretty fine weather, which was unusual and rare in this winter season of the year in this side of Japan along Japan Sea. My fun too was the exciting walking Our Lady of Akita garden covered with small snow, beautiful scenery along shining Lake Tazawa and challenging Onsen experiences in sunny open-air bath etc.! Our various conversation including your country's today was interesting and exciting. Thanks again and I look forward to seeing you not in distant future. Best regards, Kenichi
