About Tour Guide Kaori K.

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

“Above and Beyond”

Kaori was an exceptional guide for us in Osaka, Kyoto, and Kobe, and truly made our trip unforgettable. She went above and beyond in every way - from making special restaurant reservations in Kobe for us, to researching the museum there in advance so she was incredibly well prepared and knowledgeable before we even arrived. What impressed us most was how thoughtful and attentive she was to our family’s needs. When my son wanted a very specific airplane, Kaori took it upon herself to call multiple places to help us find it. That level of care and dedication meant so much to us and showed just how deeply she cares about her guests. Kaori made us feel like part of her family and ensured we always felt safe, comfortable, and well taken care of throughout the tour. Her kindness, organization, and genuine warmth made every day seamless and special. We could not recommend her more highly - she is truly one of a kind.

Hello and thanks again Delara :)) Your cute boy is very into airplane and he knows what he wants, that’s great ;) I wish he could get it in the end! And great pilot lol. That museum I also enjoyed to visit! I’ll recommend to other family, too ;)) Thank you for your great research for your trip! It gave me lots of tips, too.
