Hi, I am Mayu. I speak English and Spanish (for guiding my Spanish needs to be polished. But I can communicate). I have had experiences as a tour leader for groups of Japanese tourists to foreign countries and foreign tourists in Japan, Tokyo, Osaka. Kyoto, Hiroshima, Kanazawa and many other cities. I live in Hokkaido. My tours are around my city, Asahikawa. But I can customize your plan and take you around Japan. (Please let me know 2 weeks before your plan.) Even if my days are not available on my calendar, I could arrange them for you. So please ask me for my availability. I like hiking and cycling. Also you can experience calligraphy, green tea ceremony, Japanese drum, Ainu weaving or cooking, dog sleding, fishing on an iced lake, skiing, snowboarding so on. If you are interested in those things, I will make a plan for you. I am looking forward to showing you around Japan. Important note:Please take a travel insurance if you take my driving guide tour. Your insurance detail is required. Hola, Me llamo Mayu. Soy guia turistica. Puedo comunicar bien en Español. Pero tal vez no sería suficiente para hacer turismo. Si le gusta que le guie, después de comunicar con usted, será un placer.

“Amazing, full-experience tour ”
Reiko put in a lot of effort to help us plan an itinerary that was aligned with our interests and budget. Thanks to her, we were able to see all the sights and wildlife we wanted to see in Kushiro! She was also extremely caring and helpful, and went out of her way to ensure that we had a comfortable trip despite the cold winter.

“Day Tour to Biei & Furano”
I wanted to say a big thank-you to Asad. Our family did a day trip to Biei & Furano. From the very beginning, Asad was very informative and he communicated with me promptly whenever I had a query. He was very professional, punctual and kind. He has great knowledge of the area and the Japanese culture in general. My family thoroughly enjoyed our trip and it was one of the highlights to see the beautiful sceneries in Biei and Furano. Asad is also a great photographer for all our family photos. Thank-you Asad, and hope to meet you again next time we are in Japan.

“Sapporo Day Tour by car”
Asad was always very quick to communicate and extremely helpful with suggestions for what to do in our spare time. He was very aware of the closure of certain sites and made recommendations for alternative sites when the weather was not "participating" as expected. I highly recommend Asad and look forward to using his services again in Hokkaido.

Thank you Kristi. I am glad I could help.
