About Tour Guide Yoko I.

Hello, I'm Yoko. I was born and brought up in Ashikaga, Tochigi prefecture (80 km north from Tokyo) and I've lived in Tokyo for more than 20 years.

I love traveling, both overseas and inside Japan. After I visited other countries and saw many local cultures there, I realized that Japan has a variety of unique cultures with a lot of tourist attractions.

I hope you enjoy your stay in Japan. I'm looking forward to seeing you soon!

One day trip to Kamakura

Kamakura
8 hours

A truly great tour

It was cloudy and threatened to rain, but we had the best time. It was the last full day of our trip so we were getting pretty tired but Yoko matched our pace perfectly. She checked with us to see what we didn't want to miss and customized the tour on the fly. We were able to see the bamboo grove at Hokokuji Temple, Tsurugaoka Hachimangu, and the one place i didn't want to miss, Kotoku-in. I hadn't been to Kamakura since I was a small child so it was nostalgic. We enjoyed a lunch of the local specialty of soba with the best tempura ever in a small little spot that seemed to be filled with locals. We followed that with a walk down Komachi-dori street for a little shopping. Though the rain finally started my sister and I picked up some umbrellas and just kept going Yoko was so kind and considerate of our slow pace and my caution of wet stairs and such. I highly recommend you book with her. She was so informative of the history of the temple and shrines, and patiently answered every little question we had about things we were seeing. Thank you again Yoko

Lorraine S.

Thank you so much for taking your time to post such a wonderful review, Lorraine! I'm glad to hear that you enjoyed our tour in Kamakura. The weather was not good on the day, but I also had a lovely time with you. Visiting beautiful places in Kamakura in autumn with you was enjoyable and memorable. I was glad to enjoy autumn foliage in the temples with you. Shopping and browsing at Komachi-dori street was fun. Listening to your stories and memories of your family was really interesting and I was really glad to help you explore Kamakura on the last day of your trip. I'm grateful for your kindness and thoughtfulness. I hope I can see you again if you ever come to Tokyo. Thank you again for having me as your guide. Please take care.

Best way to see Japan is with Yoko!

We booked two tours with Yoko, one was this one day Tokyo tour and the other was the Kamakura tour. I entered my One Day Tour review on the other tour in error. Both tours were so wonderful, but I would like to recognize Yoko on the amazing job she did with the Kamakura tour. It was such a wonderful experience... We loved the train ride and the bus ride to Kamakura. We saw the Buddha, but because we are a foodie, we especially loved the soba noodles place Yoko introduced us to. Yoko was like family by the end of our tour...she was kind, helpful, and made sure we did all that we wanted. Our tour went a little longer than expected, but Yoko was flexible and very accommodating. When it was time to say goodbye, she gave us thank you gifts. We were sad to say goodbye. We will definitely seek her again next time we go back to Japan. Thank you Yoko for making us feel special and giving us memorable moments.

Javier Q.

Thank you so much for such a fabulous review, Javier! The tour with all of you in Kamakura was fantastic. I was glad to hear that you enjoyed our tour and you loved the soba noodles restaurant. I felt the same feeling, yes, I felt like I was one of your family members or an old friend. I also felt sad when I had to say goodbye to you. I'm very glad to hear that I could help you have special and memorable moments in Kamakura and in Tokyo. I'm grateful for your kindness. I hope you will come to Tokyo again and hope to see you someday in the near future. Thank you again for having me as your guide.

Yoko, you were the sunshine of our trip. We are truly appreciative of all the effort you made to accommodate our group. We would never have been able to find all the places we visited during our 1 day tour. Thanks to your planning, we hit everything on our wish list and more. You hit everything on the nail.. you introduced us to the Japanese culture, you took us shopping, and best of all, you took us to a culinary adventure by telling us food we should try and took us to delicious restaurant. We were all so lucky to have you us our guide.

Javier Q.

Thank you so much for posting such a lovely review, Javier! All of you were the sunshine to me! It was lovely meeting all of you. The day was one of the busiest time in Tokyo with lots of people, so I wasn't sure if you fully enjoyed Tokyo - but I was glad to see that all of you enjoyed sakura-mochi, seasonable sweets in Japan, at Tsukiji market. I was also glad to see that your children and niece looked really happy when we arrived in Akihabara. I'll never forget their reaction, which naturally made me smile. I was impressed by their knowledge and interest in Japan and Japanese culture. Touring with all of you was fun and interesting. Thank you so much for having me as your guide.
