About Tour Guide Yui A.
Konnichiwa! Hello! Hola! Nihao! Namaste! Anyoung Haseyo! Bonjour and Kuzu Zangpo La!
My name is Yui, a Tokyo/Yokohama-based certified tour guide. Having been born and raised in the outskirts of Yokohama, I would call both the harbor city and the capital of Japan my neighborhood. What I love most about these areas is how each place has developed as a modern city while embracing its history and traditions. Being a globe-trotter myself (you can make a guess at places I have been), I enjoy every encounter with new culture/scenery/people and it would be my absolute pleasure if I could help you to experience the same and make the most of your stay in Japan! Do not hesitate to shoot me a message, any inquiry is welcome!
Things I enjoy: art (paintings), spontaneous walk, sake, noodles, cute animals (furry, feathered and scaly!)
Reviews
“A wonderful guide.”
Yui was a lot of fun to be with. She took us to as much as possible on our list, and we were all exhausted at the end. She had suggested doing the Kill Bill restaurant in her itinerary, and we enjoyed that along with the rest of the day. It was a busy, fun day, and we thank her for that
Yui A.
Thanks for your kind words Darron! It was quite an adventure for me as well and I am grateful that you had me as your guide for the day! I do hope to see you both again soon! Arigato! Yui

Not only can you appreciate marvelous exterior which you will hardly be able to find in modern Tokyo, but you can actually step inside and look into every detail in the buildings. There is no better place to offer fascinating insights into everyday life in Japan’s good old days!
