I have lived in Tokyo for a long time, and I like Tokyo and really enjoy the life of Tokyo.
I love eating, shopping and cooking, so Tokyo is one of most exciting places in Japan for me!! I think, not only for me and Japanese people, but also foreign tourists.
I want to give you unforgettable memories in Japan. My top priority is to help you discover, enjoy, experience and feel Japanese culture, gourmet and life with the heart of Japanese hospitality.
I’m interested in cross-cultural exchange. Let’s talk a lot about anything you want to know and try to do in Japan.
I’m looking forward to seeing you the tour.

“Amazing orientation and first day in Tokyo!”
It would be hard to put into words how grateful we were to have selected Yumi as our guide. Coming off a 14 hour flight, I was most concerned with general orientation, the train system and checking off some “must do” items. Yumi completely accommodated this, helping us purchase the right train passes, and planning a day that was busy but not rushed and hit off on a key neighborhoods. We felt much better about being to navigate the next 5 days we were there because of Yumi. She is incredibly knowledgeable about Tokyo but also about what makes sense to do in a day. Our trip got off to the best possible start because of Yumi’s care and consideration - please book Yumi to assure your best trip possible. Thank you Yumi for everything!

I hope the rest of your trip to Japan is blessed with good weather, lots of delicious Japanese food, and much fun. And please come back during the cherry blossom season. Thank you for excellent review and wonderful memory with you. Yumi
“Great Tokyo guide!”
We spent our first half a day in Japan with Yumi. She was very attentive and thoughtful of our needs. She taught us a lot about Japanese customs and culture, and took us to special places that are not on the regular tour guide. She enquired in advance about our interests and made sure to adjust the tour to our taste.

Danya san, thank you so much for your wonderful review. I could learn about lots of things about the culture of your country. I was very surprised and happy to see your family, especially your son, Itay, studying Japanese and very interested in Japanese food and culture. I hope that during their stay in Japan, your family will learn a lot of Japanese, and experience many things, and deepen their interest in Japan. I hope that the weather will be good for the rest of your trip and that you will have many wonderful memories. Please come again. Thank you. Yumi
“Exploring Tokyo as first timers”
We chose Yumi based on other reviews and were delighted we did. Prior to our trip the communication was excellent. We are a family consisting of mum, dad, son & daughter in law. The age difference meant we all wanted different things. Yumi took this into consideration and created the perfect itinerary for us. We covered Sensoji Temple; Hamarikyu Gardens; Tsukji Fish Markets; Imperial Palace & Gardens & Asakusa Tourist Information Centre Viewing Tower. Needless to say that if we hadn't had Yumi we'd still be trying to find a way out of the Ginza station. Highly recommended her for your trip. Thank you Yumi from Barbara, Paul, Dylan & Rachael.

You and Rachel are so friendly and talked a lot, so I could learn about many things about your country Ireland. The weather was nice, but it was hot and you must have been tired. I am very happy if I could be of any help to you on your first visit to Japan. I sincerely hope that the rest of your trip will be blessed with good weather and that you will have lots of fun and create many wonderful memories. Thank you again Barbara san, Paul san Rachael san Dylan san, and have a wonderful journey in Japan. Yumi
