About Tour Guide Lisa W.

Hi everyone! My name is Lisa.

Thank you very much for checking out my profile.

I am originally from Osaka, Japan, and completed my Bachelor’s Degree from Kyoto Prefecture University in architecture. During my stay in Kyoto I volunteered as a tour guide for foreign visitors.

After graduation I moved to Tokyo and worked in the marketing and promotions field. On weekends I continued to work as a tour guide volunteer in Tokyo.

I have also studied at the University of California, Irvine and worked for a tech company in Anaheim California. It was great oppotuniay for me to see Japan from foreigner's perspective.

My happiness for meeting new people and learning my own culture through guiding foreign visitors kept increasing and that made me decide to become a professional tour guide.

I offer tailor-made tours for individuals or groups. I have met a lot of wonderful people through tour guiding and look forward to the many more friends I will make.

My strength is the stock of Japan's historical and architectural knowledge, which I believe makes your Japan experience fun and interesting especially when you are visiting Japan's old capitals.

During my tour I will share with you historical contents of places or structures you are visiting so that you can understand the reason why you meet present Japan. I have friendly and mindful nature which will make your Japan experience greater!

Please feel free to message me if you have any question about your Japan trip!

Hope to see you soon in my tour.

Best,

Lisa

Amazing Tour

Lisa is absolutely amazing. Our tour was very well thought out and perfectly timed for each of the destinations we visited. Lisa has a wealth of knowledge to share about each locations history and impact on the Japanese culture. I would highly recommend her for any tour you might take. Thank you Lisa!

Wonderful tour for our group of 7!

Our family and friends had a fantastic time with Lisa. Our group ranged from young kids to grandparents and Lisa took great care in planning an itinerary that fit our group, as well as alternatives in case plans need to change at the last minute. She was super knowledgeable and we enjoyed learning about Nara and the history behind the locations we went to. We highly recommend Lisa and would definitely ask her to be our guide again the next time we’re visiting the area!

Temples of Kyoto

An excellent day in Kyoto, where Lisa took good care of us and should us the most important Shinto and Buddhist temples. An excellent way to experience Kyoto and get more hands-on information and guidance on how these two religions coexist in Japanese culture.
