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.

“Fun day!! ”
Hiromi was a great tour guide! We booked her for our first day in Tokyo and that was very helpful with getting to know the subway system. She planned a nice itinerary for us which also included a tea ceremony. She was very knowledgeable and pointed stuff out to us as we walked around Tokyo!

“Great 2 days in Tokyo with our guide Hiromi! ”
Could not have been happier with Hiromi as our guide. Very pleasant manner. Very accommodating: taking photos any time, took us to all the sights we wanted to see and happy to stop when we needed refreshments. Helped us buy our train tickets and took us to a restaurant to buy Japanese food we wanted to try. Nothing was too hard for our guide! Hiromi also went at a walking pace that was right for us. Thank you Hiromi for 2 wonderful days!!

Explore two breathtaking Japanese gardens
On this tour, I’ll guide you through two of my favorite gardens. The first is Koishikawa Korakuen Garden, where a stroll around the central pond reveals four beautiul landscapes: a river, a mountain, countryside, and the ocean. The second is Rikugien Garden, renowned as the 'Garden of Japanese Classic Poems' . Both gardens, created by influential feudal lords of the Edo Period (1603-1868). Those gardens provide a serene experience while offering a glimpse into Japanese history and culture.
