About Tour Guide Ken T.
Hello! My name is Ken (Kenichi), and I’m a professional tour guide with experience guiding over 1,500 foreign tourists as of February 2025.
I have worked for both Japanese and international companies in Tokyo for over 30 years, giving me deep insight into the city and its unique charm. I also love traveling and have explored many famous destinations in Japan as well as in 40+ countries worldwide.
I fully understand the challenges that many first-time travelers face when visiting Japan, especially in a busy city like Tokyo.
My goal is to provide you with a fully customized, time-efficient tour that meets your needs and preferences.
Since most travelers have limited time and want to visit as many places as possible, I carefully plan tours that highlight the best spots and the most efficient routes, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable experience.
For added comfort and luxury, I offer the option of using a car with an experienced driver (my wife), making your tour even more convenient and stress-free.
I look forward to guiding you and helping make your visit to Japan truly memorable.

“Excellent Short Tour of Akihabara ”
We were strapped for time and Ken was kind enough to give us a condensed tour of Akihabara. Ken embodies the best of Japan as a guide - warm, very smart and knowledgeable but with quiet strength and humility. We absolutely enjoyed learning about the history of this unique part of Tokyo. I would wholeheartedly recommend Ken.

Dear Priya, Thank you so much for your kind review. It was truly my pleasure to guide you and your lovely children through Akihabara. Although our time was limited, I did my best to select spots that matched your children’s interests—and seeing their excitement over anime figures and the unique atmosphere of Akihabara truly made me happy. I’m glad we could explore a bit of the rich history and culture of this area together. I wish you and your family a wonderful continued journey in Japan, and I hope our paths cross again someday. Warm regards, Ken

Dear Chris, Thank you so much for your kind review! It was a great pleasure guiding you on your final day in Japan. Although the weather wasn't ideal and we needed our umbrellas for much of the day, I truly appreciate how warmly you embraced the experience—especially during our visit to Naritasan Shinshoji Temple. I'm so glad you were able to enjoy the rich history and atmosphere despite the rain. I'm also happy that we arrived at Narita Airport on time, just as planned. It was an honor to be part of your journey, and I hope the rest of your travels went smoothly. Wishing you all the best and hope to see you again someday in Japan! Warm regards, Ken
