About Tour Guide Kota A.

Hello everyone! My name is Kota.


After graduation from a university in Japan I spent a year in Vancouver, Canada, on a working holiday. While working as a server at a sushi restaurant, I had many opportunities to interact with guests who loved Japan, while also learning about Canadian culture from them. Those experiences became truly meaningful to me, and now I would like to take on that role here in Japan—sharing the beauty of my country with visitors and creating unforgettable memories together.


Tokyo is a world-famous metropolis, but beyond its well-known landmarks, it is full of hidden gems that are less crowded and waiting to be discovered. I would be delighted to explore such places with you and do my very best to make your trip to Japan a wonderful experience.


Since I am originally from Hiroshima, I am also very familiar with Kyoto, Hiroshima, and Osaka. I would be happy to give you helpful advice if you plan to visit those areas. And if our schedules align, I would love to guide you around my hometown Hiroshima, as well as Shiga where I spent my student years, or even Kyoto and Osaka. Please feel free to reach out anytime!


I enjoy watching soccer (especially Manchester United!), and I also like beer and whisky.


I’m really looking forward to meeting you all :)


P.S.

I am not a licensed guide, but I work as a friendly guide.

Rather than providing formal or highly specialized guiding like a school tour, my focus is on offering a more relaxed and friendly experience to help you enjoy your time in Japan.

I appreciate your understanding.

The best thing we did in Tokyo!

Having this amazing day with our private guide was the best choice to see amazing parts of Tokyo! He took us to beautiful locations that were off the beaten path, so it wasn't as crowded. He took us to all the spots we requested (and we didn't have to figure out the subway again or take tons of taxis). He was friendly, interesting and a great driver. The van was very comfortable, and he even took great pictures of us! Such a great day! Thank you! Arigatoo Gozimasu

Dear Angela, Thank you very much for your wonderful review! Although the weather was a bit unstable, I’m really happy to hear that you enjoyed your time. It was a short time, but it was truly a wonderful and happy experience for me as well! I’m looking forward to seeing you again;)

Kody was a great tour guide!

We had the best time visiting Tokyo because of Kody! Kody was wonderful with my family (2 kids and 2 adults)! He took us to all of the highlights and was able to adjust our itinerary as needed! He was patient and navigated Tokyo with ease! Highly recommend him!
