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

Highlight of our trip to Japan!

Seigo san was a fabulous guide from start to finish! His pre-trip communication through Go With Guide was excellent. We were able to arrange all details ahead of time, and he was amenable to accommodating our sightseeing requests. Seigo san was very knowledgeable about the sights and explained patiently about what we were seeing, as well as the cultural significance, etc. I would highly recommend Seigo san as a guide and will definitely seek him out again when we return to Japan!!

Perfect day in Hakone

My wife and I had the pleasure of being guided by Seigo-san during our brief visit in Hakone recently. The area has so much to offer, and it would be easy to get overwhelmed. Using Seigo-san's services was the best decision we've made. Seigo-san, has helped us focus on the key activities based on our preferences and turned our time into the most efficient and pleasant experience. Very highly recommend! Eugene

Eugene san, thank you very much for your wonderful review. I’m so glad to hear that you and your wife enjoyed the tour of Hakone — from seeing Mt. Fuji from different viewpoints to visiting the historic Hakone Shrine, and even trying the local specialty, deep-fried smelt. We were also fortunate to have such beautiful weather. Please come visit Japan again someday. I look forward to seeing you again then! Seigo

Day guided tour of Tokyo

Seigo was the highlight of Tokyo. He maintained my 10 year olds captive attention by involving her in the discussion of the sites we visited. He tailor made our day to include the must see sites on my daughters list (shibuya crossing, Tokyo tower) but made the more historical and cultural sites interesting. We learned so much with Seigo and his kindness was the highlight of our day. Thank you Seigo- it was hard to say goodbye and we hope to see you at a dodgers game soon!

Sophie san, thank you so much for your kind review. It was such a pleasure spending the day with you and your daughter. I’m really happy to hear that you enjoyed exploring Asakusa, Shibuya, and Harajuku. I hope you continue to discover and experience many wonderful things together — your daughter’s curiosity will surely make every moment even more special. Wishing you both a safe and memorable journey ahead. Bon voyage! Seigo
