I’m interested in cross-cultural exchange. Let’s talk a lot about anything you want to know and try to do in Japan.

“Tokyo with Yumi ”
Yumi was GREAT!! This was our first time in Japan and I did not know how to really plan a trip like this with a family of 7. Yumi wanted to show us even more but we were a little too slow. I know She felt like she did not show us enough but we were very thankful for her and it was more than enough. She even went over the time and refused addional payment. We were very comfortable with her and highly recommend her. Thank you Yumi. Hope to see you again someday. : )

Robert san Thank you so much for your wonderful review. I also had a wonderful time on the tour. I imagine traveling with three generations can be challenging at times, given everyone’s different preferences and energy levels, but I was truly impressed by what a wonderful family you are—you all respected one another and enjoyed the trip together. I learned so much from you all. I wish we could have visited a few more sightseeing spots, but please do come back to Japan again—I look forward to seeing you. Yumi

“Tokyo Insights”
Dear Yumi, thank you for a wonderful day tour in Tokyo in April of 2026! Visit of Tsukiji fish outer market was an authentic and unforgettable experience for me! I am grateful to you for showing me around Tokyo and seeing its cultural and urban blending. Thank you for your care and kindness, for valuable recommendations of other places to visit and directions in Tokyo metro!

Dina san, thank you so much for your wonderful review. I'm really happy to know that you enjoyed staying in Japan.We timed our meal at Tsukiji just right, didn’t you? I wonder if your niece liked the “Made in Japan” souvenirs you found in Harajuku? I really admire your determination to make the most of your stay and spend your time efficiently. Learning about Kazakhstan was very educational for me as well, and I had a wonderful time. Please come back again with your friends. Be sure to tell them all about Japan. Thank you Yumi

“Amazing day with Yumi”
Yumi was a terrific guide who taught us a lot about Japanese culture and history and listened to our input about where we wanted to go and what we wanted to see. We covered way more ground with her than we would have on our own. Highly recommend!

Yumi I.
Jennifer san, thank you so so so much for your super wonderful review. I was so happy to meet both of you, and with the beautiful weather, I had a truly enjoyable and happy time.I wanted you to make as many memories as possible within the limited time we had, so I’m sure you must have gotten tired from walking such a long distance. I also learned a great deal from our conversation. I hope you make many wonderful memories during the rest of your stay in Japan, and that you share the beauty of Japan with your friends. Thank you so much again. Have nice days during the stay in Japan. Yumi

How about an enjoyable walking in Tokyo?
There are lots of sightseeing spots in Tokyo. I will arrange a customized one-day tour based upon your requirements so that you could enjoy your stay in Tokyo. We can discuss and decide places to visit effectively for a limited amount of time. One example is shown here as follows, but I'm sure I will take you to some of my best selections so that you could enjoy both of traditional and modern culture. I can arrange an appropriate lunch restaurant based upon your requirement.

Tokyo,Now &Then
Tokyo is a modern metropolitan city built on an ancient Edo, where Tokugawa samurai government was settled. Even now we can find old relics of ancient Edo among truly modern Tokyo streets. Asakusa, Ueno and the Imperial Palace itself are some of the examples. Let’s explore Tokyo with me and find the soul of Japan.
