About Tour Guide Stephen Y.

Hello! I'm Stephen, originally from London, but for over 20 years now, I've proudly called Tokyo my home. Japan is a beautiful country, and my first visit here on holiday left me deeply touched by the kindness of numerous strangers. Whether this is your first visit or you're returning to explore more, I hope our encounter will be memorable and will add to your experience of this wonderful country.


As an avid jazz fan, I love exploring the city's unique jazz kissas (cafes) and live jazz clubs, discovering hidden gems beyond the big name jazz establishments. From intimate underground spots to historic venues, Tokyo’s jazz scene is a treasure trove of musical brilliance waiting to be explored.


As a father of two young children, I understand the joys and challenges of family outings. Our weekends are filled with visits to parks, museums, and events around Greater Tokyo. Parents will know that these days out are more than just fun — they're opportunities for learning and making lasting memories. I'd be delighted to show your family some of the best kid-friendly places and fun events around the city.


Having lived in Tokyo for so long, I've become well-acquainted with its diverse neighborhoods and the expat communities spread across the city. Whether you're interested in exploring the Tokyo jazz scene, a family-friendly day out, or a leisurely stroll through Tokyo's popular expat areas ahead of a potential move, I can offer personalized tours tailored to your interests.


Let's make your visit to this incredible city truly unforgettable! I look forward to sharing my passions and expertise with you, and helping you uncover the wonders of this remarkable city!
