I was born in Aichi prefecture where Nagoya is located in. It's a shame many tourists skip our Central area on their itinerary as it's not known well as destination for tourist. However, I'm proud of my region where you can experience Japanese people local life and beauty of hidden nature.

“Great Communication With Saki!”
We had to cancel our visit due to extenuating circumstances but Saki was very understanding and kept in touch before the visit and helped with getting the visit canceled online.
“My tour with Saki to Ghibli Park was amazing. ”
As an older woman traveling alone she accommodated me by picking me up at my hotel, cheerfully. She has been to Ghibli park many times and was able to navigate the park so I was able to see every sight I wanted and still have time for lunch before our scheduled time in the warehouse. Saki speaks great E glish so we communicated seamlessly. Saki is a kind, thoughtful guide who made sure I was as comfortable as possible through the whole tour. Highly recommended.

(64 reviews)Thank you so much for your kind review! It was so interesting hearing about your stay in Japan, I hope you could make a good memory at Ghibli Park. That rainy passage to the Totoro house was a special memory for me. If you have a next chance to visit here, I am happy to attend you again! Thank you so much for your booking.
“Fantastic sumo experience with Saki! ”
This sumo experience has been a highlight of our almost 3 week trip in Japan. Saki was so helpful in picking tickets, setting up a meeting time, and explaining all of the interesting and amazing details that makes sumo so interesting. We spent about five hours and they just flew by, my teenage boys sat with Saki and asked her questions and had fun with her, too. She’s such a nice person, you will really enjoy your time with her. She also gave us some dining suggestions, offered to walk us around Nagoya Castle, and helped set up a car to Ghibli Park. She knows Nagoya and Kyoto inside and out, I can’t recommend her enough! So easy to communicate with her and so nice to spend time with her.
