About Tour Guide Hideo Y.
Hello, I'm HIDEo YOSHIda. Please call me HIDEYOSHI, the same name as the famous shogun who built the Osaka Castle in 1585.
I was born in Kobe and worked in Osaka for nearly 40 years. I would like to introduce the Kansai region to you ,including Kobe, Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, and Wakayama.
Kobe is one of the two largest ports in Japan, along with Yokohama. After the opening of the Port of Kobe in 1868, foreigners built their residences on the hillside of the Kitano-cho area, overlooking the ocean. Many of the foreign residences are now open to the public as museums, including the Weathercock House, with it's symbol weathercock on the triangle-shaped roof.
In Meriken Park, the red Port Tower (the city's landmark), creates a beautiful contrast against the white Kobe Marine Museum. The museum's design was inspired by the waves and sailing ships.
When you have a chance to visit Osaka, please join my tour. I'm sure you'll enjoy the interesting and historical, scenic spots. For example, Shin-Sekai is a downtown area with a strange mix of nostalgic atmosphere and contemporary energy. You can try local foods (kushikatsu, sushi, tempura) at a reasonable price. Billiken (a famous statue of the spirit of luck) will be waiting for you!!. Dotombori is a popular street with a lot of flashy signboards. Osaka is widely known as a "Kuidaore-no-machi", or literally "drinking and eating luxuriously to death." Osaka Castle was built by Toyotomi HIDEYOSHI in 1585. Oh, it's my residence, isn't it !
These days "The Wizarding World of Harry Potter" area in USJ, or Universal Studios Japan, is also attracting more and more people.
I'll be looking forward to seeing you !!

“A great day in Kyoto”
We had a great day trip from Osaka port to Kyoto with Hideyoshi, whose energy and knowledge made our experience very enjoyable! Hideyoshi met us at the cruise terminal and took us on the train to Kyoto, where we visited Fushimi Inari Taisha, Arashiyama Bamboo Forest and the Gion district, and enjoyed a delicious noodle lunch. Unfortunately heavy rain meant we couldn’t explore Gion as much as we would have liked, but despite the rain we still had a fantastic day. Thank you Hideyoshi for your guidance!

(174 reviews)Thank you for your excellent review. I also enjoyed guiding Kyoto. We walked through 1,000 Shrine gates and Arashiyama Bamboo Forests. In Tenryuji Temple we could see 2 types of gardens. One is a stroll garden and the other is a dry landscape garden. In Gion area, it got rained heavily, so we entered Gion shop to see the video and pictures of Gion Festival, one of the three major festivals in Japan. We could see a real float. I wish you all the best in the future.

“Fabulous Tour!”
We had such a great time with Hideo in Miyajima and at the Museum. Easily my favorite part of our Japan trip. He was very knowledgeable and fun, and brought us to two great restaurants for lunch and dinner (with zero wait time). We HIGHLY recommend booking Hideo for your tours! Thanks, Hideo!!

(174 reviews)I had a great time with you, too. We had pleasant conversations. I'm sure tragic paintings touched you at the Peace Memorial Museum. We had Ramen for lunch, and Okonomiyaki for dinner. Okonomiyaki is a popular local food, or a Japanese -style pancake. I'd like to see you again. I wish you all (including your baby) good health and happiness.
“Great Day in Kochi”
We had an excellent tour with Hideo in Kochi. We were able to visit and Kochi Castle, Katsurahama beach and the overlook, lunch, the Makino botanical garden and the Godaisan Chikurinji temple and were ahead of the ship’s tours the entire time! He was very prompt in his responses to email and was early to our meeting time. We learned a lot and enjoyed our tour!

(174 reviews)I'm very happy to receive your excellent review. Yes, we could start the tour earlier than the group bus tour, so we could smoothly travel to all the scenic spots. We enjoyed visiting Kochi Catsle. From the top floor of the main tower, we could command a panoramic view of Kochi city. We had delicious ramen and set menu with bonito for lunch. I hope you enjoy Japan trip.
