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!

“What a great day”
Natsuko met us at the ship and was so friendly and experienced. We used public transportation and with the suica card it was seamless. We went to the harbor, had pudding and coffee in a little shop. Took the tram to the herb garden. The highlight of the day was having Kobe beef in a top notch restaurant with a renowned chef. The beef was cooked on a stove in front of us . SO DELICIOUS! Natsuko is a wonderful guide who we would recommend to anyone!
Natsuko I.
Thank you so much for the wonderful review. When I met you at the cruise terminal, I could really tell how close you all were. I'm glad to hear that using public transportation was a good experience for you. The quiet and calming atmosphere of Kobe's bay area made for a relaxing stroll. The upscale experience at the Kobe beef restaurant is something unique to Kobe, and I'm thrilled that you enjoyed it. Please do come back to Japan again! Natsuko

“Kobe tour with Natsuko.”
Natsuko was a very accommodating guide. She is highly recommended especially for first timers and those traveling with children. She takes in consideration what is most important to you as a tourist. She made a reservation for us at an amazing Kobe beef restaurant as well. We will definitely book her again on our next visit to Japan.
Natsuko I.
Thanks so much for the awesome review! I’m really glad I could meet your wishes even with our limited time. It was great hanging out in Kobe with you and your adorable kids. I'm happy you enjoyed the real Kobe beef at a great restaurant. Hope to see you back in Japan again! Natsuko
