About Tour Guide Hiromi Y.
Hi, I am Hiromi, a National licensed guide in English. I studied in England and U.S. during my 20s and 30s. I graduated college in NY. While I lived in overseas and experiencing different culture, I had chances to look at Japanese culture from the outside. And I realized its richness and uniqueness. Experiencing different culture was like discovering my own culture.
I live west part of Tokyo with my husband. Whenever we have time we like traveling. Also I have been practicing tea gathering (tea ceremony) about 10 years.
In Tokyo, there exist traditional culture as well as pop culture. There are so many places I would like to show you.
It’s my pleasure to introduce you exquisite part of Tokyo. Let’ enjoy exploring TOKYO with me! I’m looking forward to sharing memorable experience with you.

This beautiful garden represents 4 different sceneries; river, mountain, countryside, ocean as you walk around the central pond. After that we move to the place for tea ceremony. Tea master prepares tea by highly stylized manner called 'Temae'. You enjoy Japanese sweet and tea in a very settled atmosphere. You will learn the the history of tea ceremony, experience Japanese aesthetics influenced by Zen.
