Yoshi K.

Hi! I'm Yoshi. I am a National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter. Since I was born in Tokyo, near Asakusa, the famous tourist spot, and I now live in Yokohama, I am very familiar with many sightseeing spots and attractions of Tokyo and Kanagawa area. I used to live in California in the states, as a graduate student at UCLA and Stanford University, so I speak natural American English. I used be a CEO of an internet company, dealing business with many foreign companies of the US, European countries and Asian countries. Therefore, I know your culture! I can explain Japanese culture, by comparing them with yours. Of course, I can guide you to the popular spots, like Asakusa, the Imperial palace, Meiji shrine, Shinjuku, and Shibuya. But also I can take you to some secret places, which nobody knows, like a hidden temple in a dungeon. Interested? Please contact me. See you soon! Yoshi

Yuki N.

I grew up in Kanagawa, and have lived in Tokyo, Kobe, Shizuoka, Shikoku and Shonan area in Japan. I have also lived and worked in the US at a Japanese international company. I have a lot of experiences to communicate with US people through my job. I understand what foreign people want to experience in Japan! I will be able to take you anywhere, anything you want. I hope to be a good friends with you!

Nahomi O.

Hello! I’m a local guide based in the Miura Peninsula, a beautiful coastal area just south of Tokyo. I’ve been living here for nearly 10 years, surrounded by the sea, fields, and a peaceful way of life. The Miura Peninsula has many unique towns. Kamakura is an old capital where Japan’s first samurai government began. Yokosuka has long been a base for the Japanese Navy, and today it is a special mix of American and Japanese naval cultures. Misaki & Jogashima (Miura City) is a quiet fishing and farming town, very different from busy Tokyo. Hayama is a beautiful town with a summer house of the Japanese Imperial Family. Through my tours, I want to show not only the famous places but also everyday life in Japan—especially how people live in small towns outside the big city. I hope you can feel the calm, kindness, and beauty of local life. I’d love to show you the slower, more local side of Japan. Let’s explore together!

Yuki I.

Hallo, ich bin Yuki. Geboren und aufgewachsen in Japan, später nach Deutschland gezogen. Zwischen 1998 und 2021 habe ich in Deutschland gelebt und dort die beste Zeit meines Lebens verbracht. Deutschland ist für mich sozusagen meine zweite Heimat mit vielen schönen Erinnerungen. Als erfahrene Simultandolmetscherin für Deutsch und Japanisch (seit 16 Jahren) bewege ich mich ständig zwischen zwei Kulturen. Deshalb freue ich mich umso mehr, Ihnen nun mein Heimatland in Ihrer Sprache näherbringen zu können. Das Schöne an einer persönlichen Guide-Tour ist, dass sie ganz nach Ihren Wünschen gestaltet werden kann. Zögern Sie also nicht, mir Ihre Wünsche mitzuteilen! Und noch etwas: Entschuldigen Sie, wenn ich manchmal ein wenig Schwäbisch spreche – den Grund erfahren Sie während meiner Tour! -------------------------------------------------------------- I was born and raised in Japan and later moved to Germany. From 1998 to 2021, I lived in Germany. For me, Germany is like a second home, full of wonderful memories. As an experienced simultaneous interpreter for German/Japanese (for 16 years) and English/Japanese (for 5 years) , I am constantly moving between cultures. That’s why I’m even more excited to introduce you to my home country—in your language! The great thing about a private guided tour is that it can be tailored to your preferences. So please don’t hesitate to let me know what you’d like to see and experience! I’m looking forward to guiding you on my tour!

“Amazing Tour Guide”

Seigo San was our Tour Guide for 2 days. My parents were old and couldn't walk to much, Mr. Seigo was able to rearrange our trip to accommodate my parents where they could sit down and relax while I could still enjoy my sight seeing. I would recommend Mr. Seigo San to all my friends and relatives on our next trip to Japan.

Visit 2 Zen Buddhist Temples and Kannami Buddha Statues Museum in Shizuoka from Hakone

Customized

“Fantastic, friendly, flexible guide!”

I requested a unique tour from Seigo. There were a couple of temples that I wanted to see, which were a bit out of his way. When I sent the idea to him, not only was he open to it, he personally visited the temples beforehand to map out the route, and even suggested a really cool Buddhist statue museum near the temples. He printed out leaflets wih descriptions of the sites, along with an awesome pamphlet of helpful Japanese terms! My only qualm is that I wish I had met him sooner, because I learned so much and it was such a welcoming experience. Thank you so much Seigo!! Arigato gozaimasu!!

Seigo U.

Eric san, Many thanks for your kind review. I’m delighted to know that the tour of the two temples and the Buddhist sculpture museum met your expectations. Your keen interest in Buddhism was both inspiring and enlightening, and I greatly valued our exchange. You are truly Sugoi! I hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again on your next visit to Japan. Seigo
