Hello everyone!
I was born and raised in Kawagoe, a charming historic city located just next to Tokyo in Saitama Prefecture. Two years ago, I graduated from university here in Japan, and I now work as both a tour guide and a study abroad support advisor.
Three years ago, I had the life-changing opportunity to study abroad in Vancouver, Canada. The warmth and hospitality of the locals left a deep impression on me. I discovered the joy of immersing myself in a new culture and way of life, and I truly came to appreciate the beauty of connecting with people from diverse backgrounds.
Now, I want to be the one offering that kind of experience to others. As your guide, my goal is to make your journey in Japan truly special.
Through GoWithGuide, I strive to go beyond typical sightseeing—I want to create meaningful opportunities for you to engage with Japan’s rich culture and traditions on a deeper level.
I’m committed to providing a safe, thoughtful, and unforgettable experience for every guest.
Let’s not just visit Japan—let’s feel Japan.
Join me on this unique journey, and together, let’s discover the heart and soul of this incredible country.
I look forward to meeting you soon!

“Authentic Izakaya tour”
We had a fantastic time with Shunta and experienced authentic restaurants and bars that had no tourists in it. We went to places we would never have known about if not for Shunta. I strongly recommend choosing Shunta and this particular tour.

Schunter was simply fantastic – helpful, flexible, and refreshingly uncomplicated. His sense of humor made the tour incredibly fun, and we truly had a great time! He showed us so many interesting places and shared a lot of fascinating insights. Lunch was amazing, and he had just the right recommendation for us. What really impressed us was how personalized the tour remained until the very last moment and beyond – everything was tailored exactly to our wishes. Shunta always had a solution for everything and even took care of reservations and special requests. Everything went perfectly smoothly. A day with Schunter? Absolutely – we’d do it again in a heartbeat. Highly recommended!
