Edo period atmosphere and modern art fuse together
Joined 2024
Monzennakacho and Kiyosumi-Shirakawa are attractive for their historic townscapes that retain traces of the Edo period. Dotted with cafes and galleries in renovated old machiya houses, the area offers a unique blend of tradition and modernity. Don't miss the historic temples and shrines such as Tomioka Hachiman Shrine and Fukagawa Fudo Hall. Kiyosumi Garden is also popular for its beautiful seasonal scenery.

About Tour Guide Yoshie Y.
Hi, I’m Yoshie.
My hobby is traveling and I like to meet new people. Not only every part of Japan, I also traveled to many countries. Especially in Australia, I spent one year on a working holiday. I like to step into nature, and I also like to explore hidden gems in the town.
Japan has a long history of 2,000 years and has lived in a nature-oriented culture. As a local, I would like to share interesting Japanese culture with you. Join my tour, and let’s explore Japan's fascinating culture and beautiful sights together as a family!
I specialize in family-friendly tours, making sure that both parents and children have an enjoyable and memorable experience. As a mother, I know what kids love and enjoy in Japan. I want to show you and your family “Omotenashi”. This is Japanese hospitality. Be prepared for special little surprises for your children and yourselves. I want to show you the Japan that I know and love.

“GREAT GUIDE”
Yoshi responded quickly to all my questions. I asked her to meet us at our hotel and she was happy to accommodate. We travelled with Yoshi by train- she made it easy and I liked it better than a car since you are amongst locals. Yoshi was happy to find out we wanted and made up our tour accordingly. Her English was great and she is very knowledgeable. My daughter will be visiting Japan next year and I will tell her to use Yoshi as a guide for a great day.

(8 reviews)Hi, Larry! Thank you for writing a review for me. I am glad you enjoyed the tour. I had a lot of fun myself. Still remember two of your smiles on that day. And I am happy to guide your daughter, please let me know when she comes to Japan.
“Yoshi is the only guide you need”
We asked Yoshi for a custom tour, we wanted a tailored experience to this Tokyo festival. It was an incredible experience, Yoshi was punctual, communicative even before the tour, able to answer all of our questions (and they were a lot) and absolutely caring. My parents were not so fast, and there was a lot of people gathering at the festival, bit still Yoshi made the experience absolutely stunning. She visited the festival the day before just to make sure to be prepared with the food stall positioning and with the routes, and studied the history and the roots of this historical gathering. She knew where the stalls with the best food where, and she spoke with the security to be sure we had the best place to view the lanterns. If I've to suggest a guide for Tokyo, Yoshi is absolutely the one. Prepared, kind, efficient and effective.
