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!

Exploring the facettes of Kobe

Natsuko picked us up at the cruise Terminal and first we went to chinatown. We learned a lot of chinese zodiacs and took some pictures. Next step was the herb garden. A lovely place to be where you can enjoy the view and the plants. Natsuko was so kind and careful. Then we tried kobe beef in a restaurant of her advice. It was an amazing experience and extremely delicious. We can highly recommend Natsuko for a guided tour in Kobe. Thanks for a beautiful day.

Hi Marcus, First of all, thank you so much for finding me among the many tour guides and for making a reservation! I truly appreciate it. And thank you for writing such a wonderful review. I also enjoyed the Snoopy shop in Harborland, and it was great to see the beautiful views from the Kobe Port Tower. I was also really happy to have a meal with you at the Kobe beef restaurant. Thank you! I had such a wonderful day today. Natsuko

Natsuko was amazing!

Natsuko was like a close friend from the start. She’s energetic, sweet and someone easy to talk to and communicate with. She’s a mom too and was patient with our kids and adjusted timing as needed. She knew what the adults wanted to see AND what the kids wanted to see. She never rushed us but reminded us of timing and gave us fair warning of how long we would have if we veered off course a bit. She also came prepared with little gifts for our kids, who loved the attention. When one of our excursions was unexpectedly closed, we asked her where we can take the kids that they would like. She took them to a claw machine store and gave them coins to play. She then took us all to Don Quixote and gave us recommendations on what to get and helped us find things we were looking for. The day we were with her in Osaka was the day we walked the most! We covered some serious ground! Even though she told us upfront that she could only guide us til 4p she stayed longer even knowing she had to pick up her daughter. We felt so bad but she safely got her daughter. She also knew the best spots to take photos, thought ahead and got tickets for Osaka Castle ahead of time so we wouldn’t have to stand in line just for tickets for 30+ mins on a hot day. In addition, she reserved a wonderful little teppanyaki restaurant for lunch and asked us ahead of time for our orders so everything would run smoother. It was a beautiful day with her and I hope one day she will come visit us in Los Angeles! We thoroughly enjoyed our time with her and I highly recommend you book her for Osaka and/or Kobe. You won’t be disappointed!

Hi Zalina, First of all, thank you for choosing me among so many guides and for making a reservation. I also really appreciate the detailed review you wrote. From the moment I met you, I felt like we were good friends. When I guide families with children, I always think about how to make it fun for the kids. As a mom myself, I know that seeing kids having fun makes me happy too, right? So, I enjoyed pretending to be samurai together during the Osaka Castle tour. The kids were really good at the shuriken game and seemed to have a great time. I was so happy to be with such kind and friendly people. Hearing one of the kids say it was her first time seeing such a beautiful view at the Umeda Sky Building made me really happy. On the way back, they told me they wanted me to visit Los Angeles next time, and that they would be the guides for me then. How sweet of them! Thank you for also caring about picking up my daughter. I would love to meet you all again! Natsuko
