Hi! Thank you for checking my profile, I'm Saki. If you are interested in discovering the Central Japan area, Aichi, Gifu, Mie, Nagano please leave it on me!
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.
If you are a little bit tired with the touristic places please visit my region. I'll take you calm and tranquil nature places, tasting our traditional cuisine and experiencing local people's real life.
As my husband is from USA, I have many experiences to take my foreign family and friends my favorite places. It was my pleasure they loved where I presented and discovered different side of Japan. I'd like to help making your trip unforgettable and full of new experiences.
I'm really looking forward to presenting you our Central region and seeing you.
Thank you for reading my profile, see you soon!

“Wonderful guide for Ghibli park tour!”
Our family of 4 (including two kids age 10 and 11) had a wonderful time with Saki at the Ghibli park! She arranged premium tickets for us on the day that we desired. If you've done your research, you'd know that it's not easy to get these tickets from abroad. So if you are a Ghibli fan, don't wait and reach out to Saki! She was very organized and extremely personable. We had a fantastic time together touring Ghibli park, talking about anything Ghibli, as well as life in Japan, raising kids, shopping in Nagoya, etc. She is truly a joy to be around and made our day far more enjoyable. If we are ever back in Nagoya again (we sure hope we will), we will be reaching out to her to guide us again!

“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.

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.
