About Tour Guide Junko N.
Hi, I am Junko, a national licensed tour guide in English.
I can also speak Italian to have a normal conversation.
I was born and raised in Tokyo so I could say that I know Tokyo inside out. I believe Tokyo is a beautiful and traditional city as well as a modern and exciting city. In addition to famous tourist sites, there remain many attractions that are not well known among tourists.
I have had experiences of guiding foreign tourists as a volunteer guide for several years before becoming a licensed tour guide. So I can give you useful suggestions in traveling Japan. I truly like meeting people from different countries and cultures and sharing the fun of discovering Tokyo and its vicinity.
I can always tailor the tour to fit your interests and prepare an itinerary so that your stay will be unforgettable.
Why don’t you explore Tokyo with me? Please feel free to contact me at any time! I am looking forward to meeting you in Tokyo.

Junko è stata un ottima guida ed i suoi consigli per il nostro proseguo del viaggio sono stati veramente util. Peccato solamente che non riuscivamo a capire il suo Italiano. Grazie comunque.

“Mezza giornata a Tokyo e poi trasferimento a Narita”
Oggi è il nostro ultimo giorno a Tokyo, puntualissima come sempre Junko ci aspetta nella lobby del nostro albergo. Junko ha organizzato la nostra ultima visita a Tokyo e il trasferimento VIP all'aeroporto di Narita che dista circa un ora. Junko è una guida competente che parla un buon italiano, con lei nei giorni precedenti abbiamo fatto altre visite a Tokyo, tutto è sempre andato benissimo. Come sempre ci organizza tutto in modo perfetto non tralasciando niente al caso. Il programma del mattino è la visita alla torre di Tokyo per goderci un bellissimo panorama e poi trasferimento all'aeroporto. In perfetto orario arriva la vettura da lei riservata per portarci all'aeroporto, un trasferimento da VIP. Lei ci accompagna fino all'aeroporto, ci aiuta a trovare il banco per il check-in e solo quando è sicura che tutto è a posto ci salutiamo. Junko ci fa una grande sorpresa regalandoci dei dolci sempre tipici di Tokyo, salutarci è stato per noi e pensiamo per lei un momento di grande commozione; quando si passano assieme dei giorni stupendi è sempre difficile salutarsi. Grazie Junko per aver organizzato i nostri tour, risposto alle nostre innumerevoli curiosità, spiegato la storia Giapponese, tutto in modo molto competente e preciso. Sarai sempre nei nostri ricordi
Junko N.
Grazie per tutti i complimenti. Come guida, non potrei essere più felice di ricevere tali complimenti solo per aver fatto ciò che meritavo come guida. Grazie mille per avermi affidato il vostro prezioso tempo durante il vostro soggiorno di quattro giorni a Tokyo. Junko

Exciting Kamakura - One Day Tour from Tokyo
Kamakura is called "Kyoto of Eastern Japan", because it used to be the capital of Japan from 12th to 14th century, and the first government by the Shogun, a top of samurai warriors, was located here. Kamakura offers numerous temples, shrines and other historical monuments. In this tour, we will visit three famous temples and one shrine. Personally, I love Kamakura so much and strongly recommend this tour to you, because there are so many beautiful places here.
