About Tour Guide Nao O.

Hello! I'm Nao. I was born and raised in Himeji, which is famous for the Himeji Castle (egret castle).

I'm guiding in Kyoto, Osaka, Nara and Hyogo (especially Kobe and Himeji).


I'd been in the US for three years attending a university.

During the stay I went to the Yellow Stone twice, and visited California. I took a summer French class for a month in Canada, so I speak French a little.

I love travelling. I went to many places in Japan. I visited Hokkaido, Okinawa, Hiroshima, Kanazawa, Nikko, Mt. Fuji and so on.

I love music ― pops, rock, gospel and classical music. I'm a fan of Beethoven.

Some day I'd like to go to Vienna and visit his houses and the forest, where he composed "the Pastoral Symphony".


There are lots of attractions in Japan. You can visit shrines, temples, deer park etc. You can enjoy USJ, river cruise, anime museum, Japanese sake, Onsen and of course delicious Japanese dishes.


Let's have fun together !
