About Tour Guide Yoshi S.

Hello, I'm Yoshi!! I started my second career as a tour guide after retiring from the Japanese computer company I had worked for about 40 years. I was born in Asakusa and grew up in down town in Tokyo. I’m married with two daughters and three grandchildren, two girls and a boy.

I've experienced guiding international visitors in Tokyo and other famous sightseeing spots as a guide for several years. I will be so happy to help you enjoy your stay in Japan. Look forward to joining my tour!!

Reviews

Excellent, thank you

Yoshi was a great guide and a pleasure to spend our first day in Tokyo with. He expertly took us to some areas of interest, gave good explanations when asked, carried interesting materials with him, and he is a very nice and pleasant person to spend time with. Thank you!

Hi Enrique, thank you for your warm message, which is so motivating and encouraging to me. I really enjoyed being with you and Maria yesterday. I hope you could experience a panoramic view of Tokyo from 200 meters height. Have a nice trip to Kanazawa! Yoshi

Thank you Yoshi

We had two tours with Yoshi In Hakone and in Tokyo. He is a well organised tourguide with a lot of knowledge, experience and keeps at all situations a clear overview. All our special wishes have been fulfilled. You are in good hands if you book Yoshi

Yoshi S.

Hi Mauro, Thank you for your warm and heartfelt message. It will be an encouragement and a valuable resource for my guide. It was a bit cold on the Hakone tour, and it was a shame you couldn't see Mt. Fuji. I hope you enjoyed shopping in Asakusa after Tokyo tour. Have nice days for the rest of your trip in Japan! Yoshi

Wonderful Day Exploring Tokyo

We had a great time on our tour with Yoshi! What an authentic and interesting way to get to see the city — through Yoshi’s eyes and experiences with his home. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the history and culture of all the places we visited as well as patient with our group, catering to our interests. Thank you, Yoshi, for welcoming us to Tokyo!
