About Tour Guide Megumi N.

Hello, thank you for viewing my biograpy.

Can I start with my personality ? I am patient, cheerful and friendly. I love nature, love animals. My most favorite place is Zoo ! But sometimes feel sad as they are living in confinement.

So here is my self-introduction, hope that this won't make you bored.

I am a licensed guide who accidentally passed a national exam in 2011. Since then I've had the pleasure of guiding more than 300 amazing tourists from around the world.

I was born and raised in the heart of Tokyo.l Those iconic places like Tsukiji, Ginza, Akihabara and Asakusa are my childhood playgrounds. I know Tokyo like the back of my hand, from its popular sopts to the hidden gems in its back street. People say that a local always knows the best, right ?

I am very passionate to share my knowledge about our history, culture and religion, also the yummy local dishes and snacks... love sampling the street food ! Love the local Oishi dishes. (Oishi means Delicious )

I always keep an eye on the local events, seasonal festivals, and the trendiest spots in Tokyo. Because I love the festive atmosphere. This is a characteristic of Tokyoite.

My mother was in wheelchair for many years. While she and I were outing together, I totally realized the importance of accessibility. Navigating with care and compassion is a special skill I could master while pushing her wheelchair to her favorite destinations without any difficulty.

She is gone, she is no longer with me. But what she said to me is still in my heart. She said that she was lucky to have me by her side.

I will bring the same dedication to my guests, to each tour....
