Hello, I'm Yoshi!! I started my second career as a tour guide after retiring from the Japanese computer company I had worked for about 40 years. I was born in Asakusa and grew up in down town in Tokyo. I am married with two daughters and three grandchildren, two girls and a boy.
I've experienced guiding international visitors in Tokyo and other famous sightseeing spots as a guide for several years. I will be so happy to help you enjoy your stay in Japan. Look forward to joining my tour!!

Wonderful Hakone to be left in your memorial album
“Wonderful family tour!”
Yoshi took our Aussie family (2 parents, 4 kids aged 5-11) on the most wonderful tour of Hakone. We couldn't have asked for a better tour guide! Yoshi was super friendly and extremely organised. He created the perfect blend of culture, beautiful scenery, delicious food and local education. He was very patient and kind with our small kids and set the perfect pace for a very big family of young kids. His English is very very good. We highly recommend Yoshi!

“Great tour with Yoshi-San”
Yoshi-San is a very friendly and knowledgeable Japanese, English-speaking gentleman. He used to work for a Japanese company, for which he traveled abroad a lot, and became a full-time guide 6 years ago. He took our family on a great two-day tour around Tokyo. He went to pick us up at the hotel and dropped us back at the hotel as well, which was very convenient. He brought custom-made printed pages to each visit to make sure we fully understood and retained the key historical / cultural details. He took us to nice places to visit and eat, suggested breaks when appropriate, proposed to take pictures, and was very understanding (our kids were exhausted from the plane trip so we had to cut part of the 8-hour program the first day). He is a fast-walker so make sure to bring appropriate shoes :-). Highly recommend!
