About Tour Guide Natsuko I.

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!

Reviews

What a beautiful experience!

Dear Natsuko, Thank you for the wonderful day in Kobe and for the many beautiful moments. From the very beginning, it felt to me as if we had known each other for years —that’s not something to take for granted, and it’s clearly a gift you have. As you know, the Herb Gardens and the time and experience with Matsuda-san deserve a review of their own—thank you for that as well. And finally, thank you for your understanding and patience with my arrival. I thought that after so many weeks in Tokyo I had mastered Japan’s train system—but I was clearly mistaken. I’m sorry for keeping you waiting. Thank you for everything — thumbs up, 5/5!

Hi Stefan, Thank you so much for your wonderful review. I also felt as if we had known each other for years. It felt like strolling around Kobe with a long-lost friend. I was happy to see you enjoying the shortcake at the Herb Gardens and witnessing your joy while tasting the real Kobe beef at the restaurant. I truly look forward to seeing you again. Next time, let’s explore the harbor area together!

Amazing day out for first-time Osaka visitors

Thanks Natsuko for a great day out touring Osaka’s highlights. The tour was very well planned and made us feel at ease in Osaka. Natsuko was very professional but also kind and friendly. The tour will remain a highlight of our first trip to Japan.

Thank you so much for the lovely review! I'm really glad to hear that your first trip to Japan became a memorable experience. Thank you for deciding on the Wagyu restaurant menu in advance and for your help with the preparations. I enjoyed our conversations about parenting and had a great time too! I truly appreciate you participating in the tour. Natsuko
