Hello, my name is Chizuru. I'm from Kagawa, Shikoku Island. I went to primary school in London and in my 20s, I travelled around the world as a backpacker. After becoming a mother, I settled in Kagawa. Over time, I became deeply fascinated by Japanese culture, particularly kimono and
Japanese sake. This led me to open a kimono rental shop in one of Japan's most beautiful gardens. I find great joy in meeting tourists and dressing them in kimono. I also began offering Japanese sake bar-hopping tours, which I mostly enjoy because they allow me to have fun with tourists and share my passion for Japanese culture.
Kagawa is home to many beautiful islands, and I would love to take you to these stunning places too, where you can experience art, meet the local people, and enjoy local food. There are so many things to do, and I am happy to arrange any activities you desire in Kagawa.

“Amazing time in Takamatsu with wonderful Chizuru”
We had an absolutely fantastic tour in Takamatsu with Chizuru! Her deep knowledge and engaging storytelling transported us straight to the Edo period, making history come alive. Ritsurin Garden was breathtakingly beautiful and peaceful, a true gem. Chiruku’s wonderful suggestions made the experience even more special, and her flexibility ensured we enjoyed every moment. Most importantly, Chizuru is incredibly **trustworthy**—a rare quality among tour guides. Unlike some who take advantage of tourists, she genuinely cares about providing an authentic and fair experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking for an unforgettable journey through Takamatsu’s rich culture with someone they can fully trust!

It was a pleasure to be a part of your journey in Takamatsu, and your feedback is truly encouraging. I hope to have the opportunity to welcome you back to Takamatsu again in the future! Sincerely, Chizuru
