About Tour Guide Shuji O.

Hi, I am Shuji, a licensed tour guide living near Kansai International Airport.

I taught world history in high schools for four decades. So, I can explain Japanese culture or history in an easier way tailored to you who have different cultural and historical backgrounds.

I also practiced Kendo, Japanese fencing, for more than four decades, and now I enjoy growing vegetables and going fishing. Therefore, I can also share some Japanese culture and its nature.

I have traveled to more than 25 countries and all over Japan. I’m also passionate about photography and know many photogenic places in Japan.

If you prefer to go off the beaten track, I can take you to hidden gems, including some cozy restaurants. Of course, I also know how to enjoy the crowded, most popular tourist sites. I am here to make your trip stress-free. See you soon!


Reviews

Tour of Kioto

Shuji was great! He met us at our cruise port and guided us from Kobe by Bullet train to Kioto. Once there we visited gardens, busy historical street and saw a Geisha show. Great historian and pleasant tour guide. Highly recommended. We were a group of 8 and kept us in line! Thank you Shutsi.

Thank you for the kind words, even though you're so busy. Yes, we loved Kyoto. Even though there were a lot of you, you all worked well together. We enjoyed it until the very end. Enjoy the rest of your trip to Japan!

Crazy Street (The Zoo)

Shuji O showed us around to several sites. We visited Osaka Castle, Rose Garden, Sky Tower and ‘Crazy Street’. His insight and knowledge helped us understand and appreciate each of these sites. He was also very flexible and able to adjust the tour to our needs and accommodate our changing requirements. We definitely recommend you as a guide to anyone visiting Osaka by cruise ship. Thank you Shuji. You made our visit to an Osaka very memorable experience. Arigato!

Thank you so much for the wonderful review and for the great tour! Yes, everything was indeed nice today. We enjoyed the fully bloomed roses and the interesting places we visited. I hope they will become lovely memories for you both. Thank you!

Fantastic day trip of Kyoto with a true expert

My family were lucky enough to have Shuji show us around Kyoto on a day trip to all the key sites. Shuji advised us to start early at 7am which was great advice to avoid the crowds and the heat. Shuji has a wealth of knowledge on Japanese history and the key facts at all the spots we stopped. My two daughters in the early 20s and my wife and I found Shuji interesting in a wealth of subjects and we were so happy to spend time with him. If you are looking for a very professional tour guide Shuji has our full recommendation without reservation. Thank you Shuji - it was great having all your help and wisdom - and also your kindness and good humour! Simon

Yes, I was also so happy to spend time with you. This is one of my fondest memories! Despite the heat, we enjoyed exploring the Kiyomizu Temple early in the morning. We ended in the Gion district, which interested you all very much. I was so happy to have such great conversations with you. Thank you very much for telling me all about our favorite, Mark Knopfler!
