About Tour Guide Noriko O.
Hi! Dear my future guest! I hope you are well. Hard conditions have been still going on but I'm so excited to welcome you.
During the pandemic, I've got certificates as a medical interpreter and had chance to work at a hospital in Tokyo. It was a great opportunity such as to attend patients with covid and others illnesses. I came to reconsider safety and security is very important for travellers to relax and enjoy.
I live in Chiba prefecture, commuting area to Tokyo. I was born in a family of Buddhism priest in Fukushima, So, I like to show you traditional temples and shrines just as a part of everyday life. I also like nature, arts, fashion, foodie....maybe everything! The attraction of Tokyo is mixture of something new and something old. Please feel many attractive scenes with me!
I started my carrer as a tour conductor and visited many countries and had a chance to live in the Philippines for 5 years and US for 1 year. I remember people were so kind and generous to me. That's the reason why I am a tour guide now to do something helpful for guests from all over the world. So please don't hesitate to tell me your interest, I'm willing to be with you almost everywhere around Tokyo and Japan!

“Great tour guide ”
Noriko was wonder! She was very patience with us since the weather was so hot and we have little kids that couldn’t bare with the heat and humidity. Noriko showed us how to navigate train stations and took us to several places along with what we have on our agenda. Will definitely recommend Noriko other travelers.
“Amazing!!!”
We spent three days with Noriko in Tokyo in June 2024. For five of the six of us, it was our first time in Japan. She was amazing!! She gave us great ideas and insights into all the major sites and tourist attractions. She helped us translate and navigate the biggest city in the world. She offered subtle tips on social queues that made our interactions more seamless. She really was more than we could have hoped for. We’re eternally grateful and would highly recommend!
“Wonderful day in Tokyo”
Noriko took us on a wonderful tour of Tokyo! Her english is great, she is lovely company, and navigated us through the City expertly and on time. She had good information to share and found a perfect restaurant for us for lunch that met our dietary restrictions. You will have a great time with her!
