Today, Mashiko attracts many artists and entrepreneurs from various areas. Visitors can enjoy charming cafes that serve food in beautiful Mashiko ware, including cups and plates. Our visit included exploring museums, shops, and an indigo dye factory. We also stopped by Saimyoji Temple, where we saw a statue of the laughing King of Hell.

About Tour Guide Jack M.

Hi there!! I am an English speaking tour guide based in Utsunomiya city near Nikko. Since I came back from Auckland, New Zealand I started my own business as an English Speaking Guide. I have been a guide for 6 years. My favorite things to do these days are 1. visit historical places in Tochigi prefecture, 2. find nice restaurants and bars in Utsunomiya 3. wear hats while I am working outside.

Reviews

Jack knows Nikko!

We thoroughly enjoyed our escape from Tokyo to beautiful Nikko! Jack was very hospitable, knowledgeable and able to navigate very busy nature sites to maximize our time. The tour was a nice mix of nature and history with cultural discussions mixed in.
