Nikko Private Tour Guides

“1 day tour with Mr. Jack M”

Enjoyed my day tour with Mr. Jack M from Utsunomiya to Nikko. The road trip was relaxed and he brought us to the major view points in Okunikko such as Senjogahara plateau, Yomoto Onsen, Kegon falls and Lake Chuzenji and conducted a detailed tour of the Toshogu shrine. Would highly recommend him as your guide if you wish to travel fuss free on a private tour. We stayed at Lake Chuzenji after the tour. Mr. Jack is a friendly and patient guide. He also drives safely.

I enjoyed spending a day with you, your husband and your daughter in December last year. I hope you enjoyed skiing in Hokkaido. Jack

“Hired A Private Car For A Tour Of Nikko”

Because it's challenging to easily get to all the sites around Nikko, we hired a private car to take the two of us to six or seven locations (e.g., waterfalls, embassy villas on the lake, etc.). Our driver retained through GoWithGuide was great - a careful driver, kind and helpful. We had a wonderful day and would use their service again.

Thank you for sharing your experience and the beautiful photos of Nikko in autumn. It is great to know that you had a pleasant day and that our driver could assist you well. Thanks again, and we hope to serve you again soon.

“Discover Nikko with a local!”

It was a real pleasure to spend the day with Keiichiro. Born and raised in the region, he has an outstanding knowledge about its history, can tell you many interesting stories and bring you to stunning places which you would otherwise miss if you discover Nikko and surroundings on your own. Getting around by car made everything very accessible. We particularly enjoyed the personal conversations which really open up the path to a different culture. Last but not least, Keiichiro accommodated our later arrival time without any problem and even spent 1.5h more with us than actually booked. We had a great time and absolutely recommend him as a guide.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. It truly means a lot to me. I’m very happy to hear that you enjoyed exploring Nikko together, and I’m grateful that you appreciated the local stories, hidden spots, and our conversations throughout the day. Spending time with you felt more like sharing time with friends rather than guiding guests — I genuinely enjoyed it. I hope Nikko will remain a special memory for you, and if you ever return to Japan, it would be my pleasure to welcome you again.
