About Tour Guide Rieko T.
Hi, I am Rieko, you can call me Ricky. I am a National licensed English speaking tour guide.
I was born in Yokohama, the neighboring city of Tokyo, and have lived there for a long time. So, I know a lot about Tokyo and the surrounding cities, such as Yokohama, Kamakura, Hakone, and Nikko.
My favorite things to do are traveling and talking with people. I have traveled more than 30 countries in the world and talked with a lot of people worldwide. And it is fun to host people from all over the world.
Cooking and eating are also one of my favorite things to do. Japan has a unique and a great food culture, and it is a great pleasure if I can introduce you various kinds of food you have never eaten before, and help you enjoy your stay in Japan.
I have a lot of recommended destinations, yet flexible about them. I can make your own plan according to your requests. Let's enjoy a tour in Japan with me!
I am really looking forward to meeting you!
See you soon.

“6 stars for Rieko”
Just finished a wonderful tour of Tokyo with Rieko. On a very hot day nothing was any trouble. I altered some of the planned itinerary at the last minute. Not a problem. So very friendly, helpful, respectful and knowledgeable. Even going as far as offering me her own personal cooling fan on a sweltering hot day. Saw lots of the city's sights, had excellent food, plenty of water and toilet breaks. Had a fabulous day with a wonderful lady. Michael

Rieko T.
Dear Machael and Ali, Thank you very much for your warm words. You were also very friendly, and I truly enjoyed spending time with you. Although it was an extremely hot day, we managed to visit many places and had so many good conversations that the day passed in no time. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to join you in Yokohama, but I highly recommend visiting Sankeien Garden. It is a truly beautiful garden. Its founder, Sankei Hara, is considered a great benefactor of Yokohama and is also known for preserving Japan’s traditional art. You can learn more about him at the museum inside the garden. I hope you will also enjoy a wonderful cruise. Have a safe travel. Rieko

“Quick tour of two restaurants”
We had a very nice time with Rieko on our first night in Tokyo. She took us to an izakaya and a okonomiyaki restaurant. We enjoyed our time together.

“The most amazing food tour of Tokyo!”
We are a family of five, and spent a full day exploring the food delights of Tokyo with the wonderful Rieko, starting with the mindblowing Tsukiji Market. It is a foodies' paradise, and even though the main fish market has moved off-site, there is plenty to see and do. We walked through the small fish market still at Tsukiji, then explored the surrounding outer market of shops and stalls, sampling food as we went. After an incredible sushi lunch, we headed off to see kitchenware in Asakusa, had beautiful yakitori in an izakaya in Ginza and finished off with okonomiyaki and monja in Tsukishima. She is knowledgeable, thoughtful and kind - and gave us all a good experience we will never forget. This was just the most incredible, unforgettable food tour and we would highly recommend this and Rieko as a guide!
Rieko T.
Dear Serena, Thank you for your great review! I am very glad you enjoyed my tour very much and liked foods I recommended. You and your family were very kind and nice to me, so I had a very good time with you like we have been friends for a long time. Since you all like flour things and you are a big chef, you may enjoy okonomiyaki and takoyaki party at home. I look forward to seeing you again in Japan, and I will look for something more attractive. Thank you again and have a safe flight! Rieko
