Hello!
My name is Natsuko.
Thank you for visiting my page.
I used to work for a trading company, which gave me the opportunity to use English with overseas business partners.
After leaving the company, I became an English teacher for children and I discovered that I really enjoy spending time with kids.
I also had the experience of being a host family for international students, and it was so fulfilling to show them around various tourist spots and see them happy.
I hope you can have a wonderful experience in Japan too!
Would you like to join one of my fun tours?
I look forward to seeing you again!

“Kobe, Rokko Heights. And Wagyu meal”
Fantastic! Both for Natsuko’s helpfulness and for the Wagyu Beef meal in Kobe. We might try to kidnap her and bring her to the United States.

Hi Ronald, thank you for choosing me as your tour guide. I was very happy to spend half a day with your kind, warm family. The Wagyu restaurant in Rokko is a local hidden gem. It was very delicious. I really want to visit you in the United States! Please let me come with my family someday. Thank you for listening to stories about my son. I wish we had more time to talk. Let’s keep in touch. — Natsuko

“A very considerate guide! ”
Natsuko was very kind and did her best to be very accommodating. She helped change some activities in our itinerary the day before the tour because of fatigue. So we had a relaxing time in the herb garden and the Kobe beef was amazing! I wish we had more time and energy to explore more of Kobe.

Thanks for the quick review! Thank you for your kindness. Your feet were sore from the long trip, so I’m glad we changed shopping to a relaxing time in the herb garden. The Kobe beef was really tasty — it melted in your mouth. Please come back to Kobe. Next time I’ll take you to Kobe Port Tower and Harborland.

“Our Kobe beef tour”
My husband and I had a wonderful day with Natsuko. She was very caring and accommodating. She made sure we saw everything that we wished to see. From Chinatown, the Kobe shrine and the beautiful Herb gardens. She then took us to a real certified Kobe beef restaurant where we had the most amazing lunch. She found us a Saki museum that was open because we really wanted to visit one and most were closed and guided us through the trains there and directly back to our ship. She was lovely and friendly throughout the day and made us feel very welcomed to her city.

Natsuko I.
Thank you so much for writing a review of today's tour so quickly! I'm really happy to read your nice message, and it makes me a little embarrassed because you praised me so much. I also had a great time spending the day with you. Many sake breweries were closed on Wednesday, but I'm glad I could take you to one of the famous ones. I'm also happy to hear that you enjoyed the Kobe beef restaurant, especially your "wow!" It was great to smile all day because you warmly welcomed me. Thank you again! Natsuko
