Hi there!! I am an English speaking tour guide based in Utsunomiya city near Nikko. Since I came back from Auckland, New Zealand I started my own business as an English Speaking Guide. I have been a guide for 6 years. My favorite things to do these days are 1. visit historical places in Tochigi prefecture, 2. find nice restaurants and bars in Utsunomiya 3. wear hats while I am working outside.

“Great time. ”
I had a great experience with Jack. His English ability is exceptional. His knowledge is also exceptional. I was by myself and the tour was worth every penny. His tour was good way to get an understanding of Nikko so when o go back I can create my own adventure.

Hello Don, thank you for your comment. We spent the day as if we were friends, right? That's the way is the right thing to do, I suppose. I enjoyed the day being with you. Jack
