About Tour Guide Kenji M.

Hi I'm Kenji

I have a government license of tour guide interpreter in English.

I was born and raised in Kyoto, an old capital of Japan over one thousand years

So I'm very familiar with many sightseeing spots and attractions of the city

Kyoto is a fascinating and picturesque city drawing lots of foreign tourists every year

I can show you around not only popular historical sites and relics

but also its various attractions such us Zen silent meditation, traditional sweets cooking,

kimono-clad walking and so on.

I can also provide tailored tours fitting to your liking.

I like a famous Zen phrase "Ichigo Ichie" meaning "Treasure every encounter

for it will never recur"

So I always try to enjoy guiding every tourist with my best hospitality.

Zen concepts have greatly influenced many aspects of Japanese culture

I will explain some of them and allow you to explore Zen world through some of my tours

Please contact me any time.

I'm looking forward to seeing you and spending wonderful time with you.

See you soon !

Henry-san, What a great review of my tour you gave me! I'm very glad to hear that you liked my guiding and fascinating spots we visited. Despite of cold weathers we managed to visit major attractive tourist spots because you gave me 4-days tour in total. Off course I could also enjoy myself spending a wonderful time with you and your wife. If you have another chance to visit Kyoto, please let me know so that I can tailor any tour to meet your needs. Arigatogozaimashita, Kenji

Best day in Kyoto with Kenji!!

Today was my husband and my first day in Kyoto and we feel so grateful that Kenji was able to show us around. Kenji arranged the perfect day for us and provided ample information, wonderful supplemental materials and was able to answer all of our questions. He is incredibly kind and has a great sense of humor, and he took us to lunch at a delicious local Soba restaurant. We would 100% recommend him to anyone visiting Kyoto. Thank you Kenji!

Great guide

We booked Kenji for 3 days. 1 day in Nara and 2 days in Kyoto. He was extremely organized and knowledgeable of the area. He was willing to customize the tours for our specific requests. Most importantly, Kenji knew how to get around the cities, and the best lunch restaurants. Being foodies, our group was very happy with our experience with him. Recommend his tour highly! Mari
