Nagoya Private Tour Guides

“Nagoya Highlights”

We had the pleasure of touring Nagoya with Tommie. She promptly met us at the cruise terminal. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. From the moment we met her she was incredibly warm; personable, welcoming-it felt like we explored the region with a knowledgeable friend. Her deep understanding of Japan’s history and local customs added depth to every place we visited. Whether we were walking through ancient shrines and temples or navigating bustling markets (she found the best spot for ceramic kitchen goods!) or discovering gems off the beaten path (the most peaceful and delicious tea house and garden) she shared insights and stories that brought life to each moment. She was also particularly attentive and flexible, tailoring the experience to our pace and interests, always making sure we were comfortable and engaged. We shared our love for our sons and puppies as well! If you are looking for a guide who combines expertise with genuine hospitality and elegance, we wholeheartedly recommend Tommie! She made our day in Nagoya a truly memorable day. Extra bonus was the private car and driver she arranged for part of the day which helped us beat the heat!i

Thank you so much for taking your precious time to share such a wonderful review—it truly motivates me! I’m so grateful that you enjoyed my hometown, Nagoya. I remember how much your husband appreciated learning about Japanese customs at the shrine, and I’m delighted that the tea house was as special to you as it is to me. It was an absolute pleasure to guide guests as warm and curious as you, and I loved our chats about our sons and our puppies. I hope you can spend many happy moments together once you’re back home. Take care, Tommie

“Saki is the best! ”

Saki was very easy to work with even though getting Ghibli tickets is close to impossible. She met us inside the train station and she arranged for additional transportation for us. She is charming and lovely and speaks English, Spanish and Japanese! Amazing experience!

“Fascinating and enjoyable day in Nagoya”

Had a great day with Noel, felt like being shown around by a friend. Noel took the time to find out about where we are from before we arrived and conversation flowed all day. Noel took us to neighbourhoods off the tourist track to see what felt like real Japanese life, unique shrines, temples and gardens. He had a great knowledge of local history and religion. Fabulous day, would highly recommend Noel if youre in town. Thank you Noel.
