Yokoso! Welcome! Hi, I'm Mutsuko, a National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter. A true Niigatite, I was born and raised in Niigata City with roots dating back generations. I would be pleased to show you another side of Japan in my beautiful and unique prefecture. The Warm Hospitality: Niigata Prefecture is located on the west coast of the Japanese Archipelago, facing the Sea of Japan and provides a true insider look into the Japanese spirit. Only two hours away from Tokyo by Shinkansen, it has been perfecting the art of casual hospitality through centuries as a culinary hotspot and nature getaway for the those escaping the rat-race. History at your own Pace: Appreciate history and culture at your own pace in Niigata. Yahiko, National Shrine has been soothing souls, and inspiring locals, poets, and travellers for over 2500 years. Historically significant buildings greet seafarers at Niigata Port and the old town area, Furumachi. Cross the symbolic Bandai Bridge to the other side of the Shinano River where we can move from the ancient to the modern in the Bandai area to shop and gather with young and old for entertainment such as movies, music, manga, and anime. Over the Sea, Over the Mountain, Over the Fields: Nature is good to Niigata Prefecture, giving us four clear-cut seasons. People from all over the country, and travellers wanting to experience Japan with the Japanese join us to soak in the sun on our beaches, relax at spa resorts, challenge themselves on world class ski hills, and dance together at festivals that draw world class performers. Travel with Me: With direct trains to and from Tokyo and an international airport, Niigata is just a stone's throw away to have a unique taste of Japan. Whether you're planning a day trip or a longer stay, I invite you to visit Niigata City and other parts of the prefecture, and while here, it would be my pleasure to help you create unique memories during your stay.

“Sado Island in November”
Keichi the apple farmer who gave us a bag of his juicy fuji fruit to start our tour was awesome along with his english in explaining each stop's history made for a great day for the four of us from Hawaii! I highly reccomend this tour. He picked us up at the hotel, took us to many attractions and dropped us off to our ferry, all in 7 hours. Lots of fun!

“A guide who made our visit to Sado unforgettable”
A guide who made our visit to Sado unforgettable From the moment we booked, Takuo-san went above and beyond. He helped us with everything: the tour, our accommodations and every transfer along the way. On the day itself, he made sure we enjoyed every activity we had planned, and the experience turned out even better than we imagined. His kindness and warmth made us feel welcome, and having a guide who spoke Spanish made the whole day feel personal and easy. If you want to discover the real Sado, Takuo-san is the person to go with. Highly recommended!

Taku H.
Thank you very much for your unforgettable praise. I was wondering if I could live up to your expectations in the beginning. Now I am extremely happy to learn that I could be of some help to Spanish-speaking guests like you. I hope that today's visit to Sado will remain as one of the best memories in your life. Adios. Hasta la vista. Taku
