About Tour Guide Yoshie K.

Hi, I am Yoshie. I am a national government licensed English speaking Guide. I used to work for multinational companies and served as an interpreter for several years and travelled around Japan with coworkers. I love plants, nature, travelling as well as finding good places to eat! I am also a communicative person.

After having lived in Tokyo for some decades, now I live in my hometown, Fukui where you can have a great experience of Zen buddhism in the head temple of the Zen sect, Eiheiji which was founded in 1244. Fukui Dinosaur Museum is very popular regardless of age. It is one of the world's three largest dinosaurs. Echizen is also well known for Japan's handmade crafts including kitchen knives, washi paper, lacquer wares, Tansu chests and pottery. Seeing craftsmen's work right in front of you makes you excited and impressed.


I have been travelling Kanazawa since my high school age so I know well about the town to show you around as well as Shirakawago, a day trip from Kanazawa.


I am excited to meet you and coordinate what you are really interested in to make you the happiest memories in Japan.


I look forward to guiding you soon!

Great time with Yoshie san

She introduced my guests to the history of Eiheiji Temple and a lovely café, creating wonderful memories of Japan for them. They experienced the natural beauty of Fukui and said they would love to come back again. Thank you, Yoshie-san – she is a highly recommended guide!

Kanazawa Tour with Yoshie

We had so much fun today on our tour of Kawazana with Yoshie. Yoshie was instrumental in planning our day, researching options and offering sound advice and suggestions to tailor a fun day for us. We all had great time dressing up in Kimonos while Yoshie took photos and interpreted. It was a highlight of our Japan trip so far. Yoshie is knowledgeable and experienced. Highly recommend.

Hi Lenore, thank you so much for your warm review. I am glad that you all enjoyed the tour in Kanazawa, in particular, the time you walked around the historical district wearing Kimono. You all looked gorgeous in Kimono! Thank you again. Yoshie 

Excellent Guide

Toshi was our guide for 2 full days. She contacted us online, well before we met, to arrange a tour that accommodated our interests. In Echizen, we visited the lacquer art area, had lunch, and learned how to make mochi in a local woman’s house, visited an art museum, and a knife making factory. The second day with her was spent in Kanazawa in the Samuri area,, the Kenrokuen Garden, and the Geisha area. We thoroughly enjoyed the time we spend with Yoshi. She was well informed, and provided us with in depth historical background. We learned a lot, had fun with her, and recommend her very highly.
