I was born and grew up in Yokohama. I used to work in Tokyo for more than 20 years. I became the National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter in English in 2013. At first, I had attended a volunteer group which provided a tour of the Imperial Palace East Gardens until 2015. I guided more than fifty times in the garden as a volunteer and studied about Japanese history and culture. Based on this experience, I became a tour guide of this online site in 2015.
Since then, I have guided more than 500 tours in Tokyo as well as Yokohama, Kamakura, Hakone, Kyoto, Nikko, etc., while improving my tours. My tours are very flexible and I always do my best to customize them according to the interests of my guests. I studied about the places and will provide you knowledge to appreciate them more deeply than just visiting there by yourself or a member of group tours. I like foods and I know many restaurants which provide typical Japanese lunch with reasonable price without waiting too long. Therefore, I am sure that I can provide you the best tours customized to your interests. It will be my great pleasure to help you to enjoy your stay in Japan. So please be my guest!!

“Massive thanks”
We had a two day tour with Yuki. He was knowledgeable, kind, on time, and above all patient. We had great time with him. Even when we changed our mind to visit a different place to what we already had arranged with him, he did not bat an eyelid. I am forever grateful for his kindness to us. Thank you Yuki and I hope to see you in London in not a too distant future, so I can repay your kindness. Once again THANKS.

“Toyosu Fish Market with Mr. Yuki K.”
Mr. Yuki K. met us at our hotel lobby right on time. With his friendly, professional, and knowledgeable demeanor, he navigated us through the buzzing underground to public transportation. Mr. Yuki K. began by telling us about the Toyosu Fish Market where the world-famous tuna auction takes place. He explained the significance of the bids and the different types of tuna, sharing insider knowledge. Mr. Yuki led us through the aisles of vendors, retail and restaurant shops where we had a sushi lunch that was the absolute highlight of the tour. The sushi restaurant was one of his favorites and the sushi was fresh and tasty. He explained what some of the food items were and how it's used in Japanese cooking. Beyond the food, Mr. Yuki made the experience delightful with his great company and thoughtfulness. He was happy to answer all our questions, offering fantastic recommendations for the rest of our Tokyo trip. His ability to tailor the experience to our interests showed how much he truly cares about his guests. If you want to see the Toyosu Fish Market with a warm, knowledgeable, and engaging guide, look no further than Mr. Yuki K. I cannot recommend this tour highly enough! O English - Dallas TX, USA
