About Tour Guide Yoshiko K.
Hello, my name is Yoshiko Khan. I was born and brought up in Niigata. As we have high mountains, plains, clear rivers, the sea of Japan and islands, you can enjoy diversity of nature and its blessings in each season. Dubbed as a snow country, very patient people in this prefecture have produced many high quality specialties in agriculture, fishery, traditional arts and industry. Enjoy delicious, healthy food and sake here in Niigata. It's only two-hour bullet train ride from Tokyo. I am very much looking forward to seeing you!

“Wonderful trip to the knife factory and sake tasting.”
Yoshiko was the absolute best Tour Guide for us. She arrived very early to meet us and was standing at the bottom of the stairs as we came off the ship Her English was absolutely superb. My sister was interested a Japanese knife factory and we had the most wonderful tour there. She made a point of showing us interesting facts about local life, and our tour ended with sake tasting, and a tour of a sake brewery. We loved that she grew up in the area and was able to explain about the local agriculture and lifestyle. She was so flexible about accommodating our interest. We had a wonderful day with her and highly recommend her for your tours.

Hello Diane, Thank you for your comment on the tour. I also enjoyed the tour with jolly two of you. Thank you for letting me know your ship's early arrival. So, we could proceed the tour effectively. The craftman of the knife factory was so nice and accomodating, that it made the tour unforgettable, wasn't he? I am very much looking forward to guiding you next time! Yoshiko

“Art Tour around Yuzawa”
Our tour with Yoshiko was awesome. Yoshiko was fantastic, and the art was so much fun to see. She was clear in her communications and gave us some great tips before the tour as well. Even when the itinerary needed to change last minute due to unexpected snow and closed venues, Yoshiko was patient and did her best to accommodate us. Thanks Yoshiko!

Thank you so much for your review. I appreciate you enjoyed your tour in Yuzawa. Although it was not really a good time due to unexpected snow in that area, you were always jolly and very understanding. Rice over here surely is the best to eat, isn't it? I just wanted to show you the rice polishing machine actually operating then. Have a great time in Japan! Yoshiko

“First time in Japan ”
Our guide set up a good plan according to what we wanted. She very nice and both picked us up at our hotel and drove us back During our trip she stopped where we wanted and took contact with the locals so we could see what we hoped for but didn't think we would see. On the way back, we stopped for food at a nice family restaurant. This was also our first time getting a guide from this web site, but both getting in contact with the guide and payments worked very well. Thank you for a nice day trip. Overall this was a very nice experience and I would recommend her to everyone.

Thank you for your message. It was so nice to have both of you here in Niigata. Those staff in the koi museum were all nice and kind were'nt they? And so was the koi breeder. Although it was raining, the koi ponds terraces in the mountains were mysteriously beautiful weren't they? I am sorry that I couldn't control my car's temperature well for you. Thank you again for staying in this rural area for a week long. Hope to see you again. Yoshiko
