About Tour Guide Yoko I.
Hello, I'm Yoko. I was born and brought up in Ashikaga, Tochigi prefecture (80 km north from Tokyo) and I've lived in Tokyo for more than 20 years.
I love traveling, both overseas and inside Japan. After I visited other countries and saw many local cultures there, I realized that Japan has a variety of unique cultures with a lot of tourist attractions.
I hope you enjoy your stay in Japan. I'm looking forward to seeing you soon!

“Peaceful first day tour ”
We wanted a relaxed first day tour to learn more about Japan and get comfortable navigating . Yoko was a very calm and kind guide who is an experienced traveller herself. In addition to her thoughtfully planned tour, she went out of her way to help us explore other interests and was very compassionate with our son. She had no issue understanding our rough Australian accents and her English was great. We would recommend Yoko to guide anyone wanting a gentle introduction to Tokyo.

Thank you so much for posting such a lovely review, Ben! Also thank you for sharing the lovely photo taken at Senso-ji temple. I’m glad to hear that you enjoyed your first day tour in Tokyo. I had a wonderful day with you, your wife and son. I was amazed that all of you were interested in Japanese culture, especially your son. His knowledge about Japanese culture impressed me a lot! Touring with all of you was enjoyable and memorable. Talking with you, I remember my enjoyable trips in Australia. Thank you again for having me as your guide. I’m grateful for your thoughtfulness. I hope I can see you again if you ever come to Tokyo. Have a lovely journey!

“Tokyo Touring with Yoko 10th & 11th April 26”
Yoko was a very good guide. Before the two days of guiding around Tokyo, she made sure she understood my interests & preferences. Then based on my rather vague information she composed a draft itinerary, & asked for my feedback. She took careful notice of my reactions & several times revised her suggested itinerary. On the guiding days she was patient, helpful, & gave lots of interesting information about Tokyo. If in Tokyo again I would certainly like to take advantage of her professionalism, cheerful disposition, patience & helpfulness. Additionally I would like to send my thanks & very best wishes to her.
