I am sorry for people looking for Spanish OR Chinese tour guide.
Hello! My name is Kaori.
When I was young I was interested in tourism.
I was studying and working as tour conductor around Kanto area in Japan.
I lived abroad from my early 20s to mid 30s.
Australia, Taiwan, Central America, Great Britain, Spain and Italy.
Now I came back and live in Osaka where I was born.
The reason why I applied for the tour guide is because I was pleased when I guided my foreign friends around Japan.
Me personally love traveling a lot.
Especially trekking in the mountains and MTB trip by myself!
I’ve done El Camino De Santiago in Spain 4times!
Camino francés, Vía de la plata, Camino Norte, Camino de Madrid, Camino de San Salvador, Camino primitivo.
I’ve done Kumano Kodo pilgrimage, too.
I’ve travelled around Morocco, Greece and Italy by MTB :)
I love adventure!
I love to look up sightseeing informations and listen to the story of travelers!
In japan I also lived in several different prefectures such as Osaka, Nara, Wakayama, Tokyo, Kanagawa.
I might be able to guide you not only popular touristic sites but also to local hidden sights!
Please focus things what you like and want!!
I promise to do my best to organize a tour that is consistent with your interests!
Thank you for paying attention for my self-introduction.
I’m looking forward to see you soon.
LOVE
Kaori
“Wonderful Time!”
We had such a great time with Kaoru! We told her we didn’t want to go to super crowded sites and she listened. She took us to the Imperial Palace, shopping at a huge indoor market, a delicious ramen lunch and a Buddhist shrine that was unforgettable. We will always remember what a fun and knowledgeable guide Kaoru was!

“Four days of fun with Kaori ”
We recently had the pleasure spending four days exploring Kyoto, Osaka, and Nara with Kaori, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment we met, she went above and beyond. She has a deep knowledge of Japan’s history and culture, and tailored the tour to our interests; making it both engaging and informative. Kaori was not only knowledgeable but also incredibly personable. It felt like we were exploring with a friend. Her attention to detail and commitment to ensuring we had a memorable experience truly sets her apart. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide.
