About Tour Guide Keiko U.
Hi! I'm Keiko.
I was born in Osaka,raised in Nara, and now live in Kyoto, each of which is a lovely place.
I love cooking, travelling, eating, and meeting lots of people, which led me my current job as a tour guide and a cooking instructor here in Kyoto, the ancient capital of Japan.
I'd like to show you the charms of Kyoto; the world heritage sites, nice spots good for social media, nice foods, hidden gems off the beaten track with the story of Japanese culture and history.
And I'd also like to assist you to make a lovely day through my Japanese cooking experience class.
Additionally, I love children and of course, respect the elderly.
The kids usually take to me right away!
I'd like to assist every member of your multi-generation family touring in Kyoto by my suggestions.
I look forward to welcoming you. See you soon!

“Wonderful experience with Keiko!”
We just loved Keiko! We had one day with Keiko and it was one of our best days on our trip to Japan. Kyoto was very busy so she recommended a town outside Kyoto. It was so beautiful and the best decision to go see some temples outside very busy Kyoto. We got to talk and learn more about Japanese culture during our drive. She was like meeting an old friend who was showing us around. She was extremely personable, friendly, knowledgeable, sweet and funny. She was very good with my preteen daughter. You can tell she is very passionate about sharing Japanese culture with you. I cannot recommend Keiko enough!!

“TOP 10 REASONS to NOT BOOK KEIKO IF………………..”
Recently had a 3 day custom tour with Keiko. Please do not book Keiko if…… 1) You don’t need much communication beforehand. Keiko is a constant and quick communicator. 2) You enjoy interpreting Japan to English. Keiko’s English is easily understood without any difficulty. 3) You prefer to be left to your own devices. Keiko will not let you do that! She was always thinking ahead to entertain our interest and provide knowledge that she thought was most musical to our ears. 4) A bubbly personality is not your thing. Keiko ‘popped’ off the train platform the moment we met at the train station. She never let that fun, sunshine personality subside. 5) The organization of your Guide is of little importance. Keiko was always aware of our next move, even suggesting we not do certain things as a waste of money/usage of her time. She did not hesitate when our plans veered from the expected and quickly regrouped to go in an opposite direction. 6) You expect your Guide to remain aloof and maintain a certain level of ‘professionalism’. Sorry, Keiko makes you feel like an old friend, if not one of her family. 7) You only want commercialized, touristic Japanese food. Ok, so what if she is a Chef who welcomes you to her home, and teaches you (with only the freshest of ingredients) how to make a wonderfully delicious meal. So what if you can’t fasten your pants after eating so much scrumptious food. 8) Your Guide should not genuinely care about your well being! Keiko constantly checked on our happiness, allowing for the difference in personalities in our group, ensuring we were all satisfied and well taken care of. 9) You are bothered when your Guide goes out on their own time to pick up little surprises for you. Yes, she did that too! And lastly, 10) You need a guide in Kyoto the same time that I do. Sorry, I do not want any competition for her time. DON’T EVEN THINK ABOUT IT!! Otherwise…you’d be crazy to not book Keiko. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
