Hallo, ich bin Yuta, ein privater Reiseführer mit Sitz in Kyoto, der Touren auf Englisch und Deutsch anbietet. Mit 79 Fünf-Sterne-Bewertungen gestalte ich entspannte, maßgeschneiderte Tage, die die wichtigsten Sehenswürdigkeiten, ruhigere lokale Orte, großartiges Essen und unvergessliche Fotos miteinander verbinden.
(From now on, I will continue in English for a while.)
As a local guide, I know Kyoto, Osaka, and Nara very well. I love showing both the famous highlights and the smaller hidden spots that most visitors don’t get to see.
I design custom tours for individuals and groups, whether you’d like to explore Kyoto’s temples and gardens, Osaka’s lively neighborhoods, or Nara’s peaceful parks and friendly deer. Along the way, I share stories, history, and insights to help you experience these places more deeply.
I also enjoy taking photos during tours so you’ll have lasting memories of your visit. Most importantly, my goal is to make your time in Japan enjoyable, relaxed, and truly special.
If you have questions or would like help planning, please feel free to reach out. I look forward to welcoming you and showing you the beauty of Japan!

“Tour not worth it”
We struggle to give such a low rating but can't help to be disappointed with the tour. We had booked with Yuka but since he didn't have time during the week we visited Osaka and Kyoto, he passed the reservation to his friend Natsumi. Natsumi did a 3 hour tour with us in Kyoto. We were excited to have a German-speaking guide so our three kids could participate in the tour because they only speak very little English. We had very friendly chats with Natsumi but it wasn't really about Kyoto, Japan or the Kizomizu-dera temple that Natsumi planned for us to visited. We were disappointed that Natsumi didn't have any stories, explanations or activities planned that matched us as the audience and the extremely hot weather.

Thank you for taking the time to share your honest feedback. We are sorry that the tour did not meet your expectations, especially for your children. You are right, and we humbly accept your criticism. A tour should be engaging and suited to its audience and the weather. We take this seriously and will use it to learn and improve how we prepare and match our guides to each family. Thank you again, and we wish you wonderful travels!

“Einfach top”
Wir hatten mit Yuta einen sehr netten und gut organisierten Guide, die Tour war spannend, abwechslungsreich, auch mit genügend Pausen zum abkühlen (wir waren im Juli bei 38 Grad unterwegs). Er hatte auch einige Geheimtipps und Empfehlungen für die Folgetage für uns. Alles in allem sehr gut, klare Empfehlung.

“Super spannend und gut organisiert ”
Yuta hat uns tolle Einblicke in die Umgebung und die Kultur gegeben. Er hat viel erklärt und uns trotz der Hitze gut durch den Tag gelotst. Er kannte Ecken, die nicht so von Touristen überlaufen sind, alles in allem war es sehr abwechslungsreich. Preis- Leistung-Verhältnis ist angemessen.
Yuta I.
Vielen herzlichen Dank für dieses tolle Feedback! Es freut mich sehr zu hören, dass ihr die Tour genossen habt und ich euch ein paar ruhigere, weniger überlaufene Ecken zeigen konnte. Auch wenn es an dem Tag unglaublich heiß war, hoffe ich, dass ihr diese Hitze ein wenig als Teil der besonderen japanischen Sommerkultur erleben konntet. Es war mir eine große Freude, euch durch den Tag zu begleiten!!
