About Tour Guide Atsuko T.
Hello. My name is Atsuko.I'm a licensed tour guide in Japan.
I have lived in Osaka since I was born.
I have guided many tourists all over the world as a volunteer for 6 years. I like showing my tourists my favorite places in Japan and talking with them. Osaka, where I was born and raised, is famous for foods, modern and ancient cultures. Nara and Kyoto, which are neighboring places, were ancient capitals in Japan. I'm happy to visit those places with you.

“Osaka Castle, Shitenno-Ji Temple and nearby garden, and Dotonbori ”
Atsuko was great. She met us at our hotel and showed us all the sights we wanted to see. She was very informative, relaxed and was great to talk to about everyday life in Japan. We highly recommend her.

Hello Mr. Reed, Thank you for your kind review and words for me. It was fun for me to do this tour with you. I really enjoyed showing my hometown and talking with you. I am happy to show you a real life in Osaka. Osaka was the 1st place on your trip. Please enjoy the long journey in Japan. Please say hello to Risa. Thank you. Best regards, Atsuko

“Lovely day with Atsuko ”
We had an amazing day with Atsuko . She was so knowledgeable and put as at ease immediately. She kindly adapted the tour as I was poorly and was unable to meet the 1st day so we felt we didn’t miss out on anything. We visited shrines and temples and Atsuko told us the history and culture and made the whole day very interesting and informative. Thank you so much for helping us create lovely memories

Hello Ms. Glenis, Thank you for your kind review and words for me. I am happy to hear you had an amazing day in Nara. I also had a wonderful day with you and your son, Tom. Nara is rich in nature. I like visiting Nara. I think you really enjoyed your birthday and Mother's Day in Japan. Today is Mother's Day in Japan. My children also celebrate it for me. Thank you for joining my tour. Please say hello to Tom. Best regards, Atsuko

“Gute Tour in Kobe”
Atsuko war sehr pünktlich und freundlich im Kontakt. Insgesamt war die Tour sehr gut, leider gibt es einen Punkt Abzug für das Mittagessen. Wir haben Kobe Fleisch gegessen, leider waren wir mit Service und Qualität nicht zufrieden. Trotz der Bemühungen Atsukos wurden unsere Reklamationen im Restaurant nicht verstanden. Atsuko war es sehr unangenehm, sie wird dieses Lokal sicher nicht mehr mit Gästen besuchen.

Hello Ms. Heike, Thank you for your review and words for me. I translated in English. I am happy to hear you enjoyed the Kobe tour except Kobe Beef. I am very sorry you were not satisfied with Kobe Beef in Kobe. I was also disappointed with the beef at the restaurant. Thank you for joining my tour. Best regards, Atsuko
