Hello, my name is Miki. I have lived in the United States, China, and Taiwan, and I love travel. There are many fun places to visit near Tokyo. I can ask your request to go and the things what you want to do, then create an original plan for you! From famous tourist destination to local places, I will help you discover a new side of Japan, whether it's your first time or a repeat visitor. Enjoy your trip!
“Excellent Trip”
Miki has fluent English and Chinese. As I need a guide which can help to explain the instructions in Japanese, Miki did a great job. Before the tour, she did information collection. Although there isn’t a common spot with specific information/terms, she still can help me to understand the tour. Thanks so much.

Thank you for your warm feedback. Even I live in the same prefecture, I had never heard of this facility, so it was a very meaningful tour for me too. It was really fun to hear your previous trip . I'm glad to hear I was able to help you. Thank you very much.
“Farm tour Saitama in June”
Miki san was flexible and conscientious in planning for our farm tour which required her to serve as an interpreter. She speaks English fluently and was enthusiastic with our plan. She was on time, did additional education in advance, and even came prepared with pertinent materials. We enjoyed getting to know Miki san further during lunch with her.
Miki K.
I understand Mimi-san really wanted to learn about fruits, so I wanted to share the information as much as possible. It was a hot day, so I was worried about everyone's health, but I'm so glad to hear you enjoyed the tour. Your family were all very kind, and I was really happy to be your guide. Thank you very much!
“A competent, helpful and proactive guide”
I had a great day with Miki in Tokyo. She picked me up punctually at my airport hotel . She supported me with the collection and set up of my SIM and data device at the airport; thanks to her, everything was easy! Then she helped me with navigating Tokyo Station and buying some specific items I was looking for. She suggested a lovely restaurant for lunch, and I could try some new dishes. Finally, she directed me to the right platform for my train journey, making sure until the end that I was going in the right direction. I thoroughly recommend Miki as a helpful guide and pleasant companion.

It was nice to meet you Laura san. You booked all you need. So it was easy to suppor. There was a small trouble on your card, however we could solve the problem together! It was my pleasure if I could make the Tokyo trip easier and more fun. Thank you very much for your message. I wish you could see beautiful Cherry blossom in JP!
