"If my tour is not available on your preferred date, no worries! Just send me a message and I might be able to open up a slot for you." Hi, I am Toshi. I love traveling! It gives me a chance to get to know how other people live, their culture, and discovering new places (usually off the beaten track). This is why as a guide, my goal is to give guests a real "local experience"--the kind that I like when I travel. I've been a licensed tour guide since 2008. I've conducted tours for international guests from the USA, the UK, Australia, Canada, New Zealand, Spain, France, Germany, Poland, Kuwait, Mexico, Singapore, the Philippines, Italia and so on. In fact, I conducted 120 tours (one day tours and a-week long tours) in 2023. I also speak a little Spanish (un poquito). In my spare time, I give back to the community as a volunteer: tsunami clean-up activities, entertainment at evacuation camps, guide for foreign visitors in affected areas, and at various cultural events. Let me show you "My Tokyo"! Enjoy the city like a local and maximize your time in Tokyo! See you soon!

Come explore Tokyo with me, a true-blue Japan lover and avid world traveler! Hi, I am Samantha from Singapore and it is nice to meet you! Having lived here for 13 years, I love Japan very much and still view it with a perspective of playfulness, curiosity, and amazement. There are always new places to discover and have fun. My guide experience began with private tours for family and friends who have visited me throughout all these years. I am excited to showcase the beauty and uniqueness of Japan to you too. I love meeting and connecting with new people. I have been to several countries and my most recent experience was a 1 month solo trip to Eastern Europe. I also took the opportunity to volunteer at a Romanian dog shelter. Despite being abused, their affection for humans remains and touched me deeply. Kindness not only can be extended to humans but also to animals, an integral part of our planet. As a global traveler, I understand how nerve-racking it can be to visit a new place. I have been fortunate to meet warm and kind locals on my travels. I want to extend to you this same warmth and kindness. I will be your guide to navigate the sprawling spaces, experience the wonders of Japan, and be your friend away from home. My aim is to create a warm and welcoming space for you to immerse, learn, and relax here. Let me take you on a fascinating journey of discovery, knowledge, and interactions! Together, we will explore and create unforgettable memories of your trip here! ** Feel free to contact me for a one-of-a-kind customized tour. I am happy to work out the details with you. 你好 ! 我是萨曼莎。 我来自新加坡,在日本生活了 13 年。 这些年来,我一直有家人和朋友来日本。我喜欢带他们游览日本。 作为一名环游世界的旅行者,我喜欢结识新朋友并与他们建立联系。 我理解在一个陌生的地方,对语言和文化知之甚少或一无所知是多么令人伤脑筋。 在我的所有旅行中,我很幸运能够遇到热情友善的当地人。他们欢迎我来到他们的国家并教我他们的文化。 同样,我想为您创造一个温暖而温馨的空间,让您在日本沉浸、学习和享受。 我对展示这个国家之美的热情促使我创建了这些旅游项目。 我真的很高兴与您分享它们! 让我带您踏上一段奇妙的发现、知识和互动之旅! 我们将一起探索并为您的旅行留下难忘的回忆! 如有任何疑问,请随时与我联系。 我可以根据您的喜好、时间和需求量身定制行程。

Saitama Tour Reviews

An absolute highlight of our Japan Journey

We spent an absolutely fantastic day with Yoshi who has brought us a lot closer to Japan and his culture, he has also talked to the people who live and work in Kawagoe and give us the feeling of being involved. If we were to travel to Japan again we would definitely book a tour with yoshi again he was one of our highlights in Japan

Alexandra W.

I really appreciate your splended comment, with which I’m far more than happy. I think we were lucky to visit Kawagoe and Kinchakuda Park area in the atomosphere of local people enjoying or preparing for local autumn festivals. Please come again to Japan in May and/or October when you can deeply enjoy exciting local festivals here and there. See you soon!

Excellent Trip

Miki has fluent English and Chinese. As I need a guide which can help to explain the instructions in Japanese, Miki did a great job. Before the tour, she did information collection. Although there isn’t a common spot with specific information/terms, she still can help me to understand the tour. Thanks so much.

Man yee K.

Thank you for your warm feedback. Even I live in the same prefecture, I had never heard of this facility, so it was a very meaningful tour for me too. It was really fun to hear your previous trip . I'm glad to hear I was able to help you. Thank you very much.

Farm tour Saitama in June

Miki san was flexible and conscientious in planning for our farm tour which required her to serve as an interpreter. She speaks English fluently and was enthusiastic with our plan. She was on time, did additional education in advance, and even came prepared with pertinent materials. We enjoyed getting to know Miki san further during lunch with her.

Mimi K.

I understand Mimi-san really wanted to learn about fruits, so I wanted to share the information as much as possible. It was a hot day, so I was worried about everyone's health, but I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed the tour. Your family were all very kind, and I was really happy to be your guide. Thank you very much!
