About Tour Guide Seigo U.

Hi, I’m Seigo.

Thank you for visiting my page. I'm a friendly guy who loves traveling, music, and sports, especially baseball.

I enjoy trying my best to take you wherever you want in Japan as much as possible.


Key Skills

Certified National Licensed Guide Interpreter in English (2018) and Chinese (2020)

Domestic Travel Service Supervisor license (2019)


Strengths

• Extensive travel experience both domestically and internationally. Fluent in English and Chinese, and currently learning Spanish to broaden my global communication skills.

• Proven expertise in managing schedules for bus tours, including multi-day and day trips, ensuring smooth and enjoyable experiences.

• A commitment to tailoring tours to individual preferences, creating relaxing, memorable, and joyful journeys.


Guiding Experience

Since 2019, I have guided a variety of tours, including:

• Private tours

• Day-trip, long tour

• Cruise ship excursions

I have extensive knowledge of and experience guiding popular destinations across Japan, such as Tokyo, Kamakura, Hakone, Mt. Fuji, Kyoto, Nara, Osaka, Sendai, Kagoshima, and Okinawa.


Background and Education

After earning a degree in English, I devoted over 35 years to teaching English at high schools and special education schools, while also working with the Prefectural Board of Education. My passion for education extends to online language teaching, where I help students master Japanese, Chinese, and English.


Since I have lived in Kanagawa my whole life, I can offer satisfying private customized tours to each guest group. My recommended destinations in Kanagawa are Kamakura, the seat of Japan's first Shogunate, and Hakone, a popular resort area with mountains and Lake Ashinoko. I can also drive you around some nice places in Japan that foreign tourists don't usually visit.


Please feel free to contact me anytime.

I'm looking forward to seeing you soon!

Reviews

Fantastic, friendly, flexible guide!

I requested a unique tour from Seigo. There were a couple of temples that I wanted to see, which were a bit out of his way. When I sent the idea to him, not only was he open to it, he personally visited the temples beforehand to map out the route, and even suggested a really cool Buddhist statue museum near the temples. He printed out leaflets wih descriptions of the sites, along with an awesome pamphlet of helpful Japanese terms! My only qualm is that I wish I had met him sooner, because I learned so much and it was such a welcoming experience. Thank you so much Seigo!! Arigato gozaimasu!!

Eric san, Many thanks for your kind review. I’m delighted to know that the tour of the two temples and the Buddhist sculpture museum met your expectations. Your keen interest in Buddhism was both inspiring and enlightening, and I greatly valued our exchange. You are truly Sugoi! I hope to have the pleasure of welcoming you again on your next visit to Japan. Seigo

A+ service all around!

Seigo was a wonderful and caring tour guide for all of our needs. He was able to adjust the schedule and itinerary nimbly to allow for inclement weather and offer up alternative ideas on the spot. He is a beacon of local Japanese knowledge as well. I always appreciate a timely, considerate and respectful local tour guide and Seigo checked all those boxes. Highly recommend!

Jesse, thank you so much for your kind words. Although the weather forecast, unfortunately, proved accurate, I’m so glad you were still able to see Mt. Fuji up close. It was a great pleasure accompanying you two to many interesting places over the past two days. I hope you enjoy the rest of your time in Japan to the fullest. I’ll be looking forward to the day we meet again. Seigo
