About Tour Guide Rieko T.

Hi, I am Rieko, you can call me Ricky. I am a National licensed English speaking tour guide.

I was born in Yokohama, the neighboring city of Tokyo, and have lived there for a long time. So, I know a lot about Tokyo and the surrounding cities, such as Yokohama, Kamakura, Hakone, and Nikko.

My favorite things to do are traveling and talking with people. I have traveled more than 30 countries in the world and talked with a lot of people worldwide. And it is fun to host people from all over the world.

Cooking and eating are also one of my favorite things to do. Japan has a unique and a great food culture, and it is a great pleasure if I can introduce you various kinds of food you have never eaten before, and help you enjoy your stay in Japan.

I have a lot of recommended destinations, yet flexible about them. I can make your own plan according to your requests. Let's enjoy a tour in Japan with me!

I am really looking forward to meeting you!

See you soon.

Quick tour of two restaurants

We had a very nice time with Rieko on our first night in Tokyo. She took us to an izakaya and a okonomiyaki restaurant. We enjoyed our time together.

The most amazing food tour of Tokyo!

We are a family of five, and spent a full day exploring the food delights of Tokyo with the wonderful Rieko, starting with the mindblowing Tsukiji Market. It is a foodies' paradise, and even though the main fish market has moved off-site, there is plenty to see and do. We walked through the small fish market still at Tsukiji, then explored the surrounding outer market of shops and stalls, sampling food as we went. After an incredible sushi lunch, we headed off to see kitchenware in Asakusa, had beautiful yakitori in an izakaya in Ginza and finished off with okonomiyaki and monja in Tsukishima. She is knowledgeable, thoughtful and kind - and gave us all a good experience we will never forget. This was just the most incredible, unforgettable food tour and we would highly recommend this and Rieko as a guide!

Dear Serena, Thank you for your great review! I am very glad you enjoyed my tour very much and liked foods I recommended. You and your family were very kind and nice to me, so I had a very good time with you like we have been friends for a long time. Since you all like flour things and you are a big chef, you may enjoy okonomiyaki and takoyaki party at home. I look forward to seeing you again in Japan, and I will look for something more attractive. Thank you again and have a safe flight! Rieko

A Busy Day in Tokyo

Rieko was a knowledgeable tour guide. We had a sightseeing-filled day in the intense heat, but she made the experience exciting and engaging. I recommend taking a taxi and public transportation if you plan to go in the summer, since many of the sites are outdoors and have little to no shade.

Dear Michaela san, Thank you for your warm review. I am glad you enjoyed my tour. It was indeed a very hot day and I will take that into account. Thank you very much for your suggestion. I hope you two had a very good time in Japan and will come back someday in the near future. Many thanks. Rieko

I will take you to 3 izakayas (Japanes Bars) that Japanese usually go in Shinjyuku. Some places like Memory Lane(Omoide Yokocho), Kabukicho, Golden Gai etc. You can save time researching and planning your trip because I will show you places that are usually difficult for tourists to find. I can recommend you delicious foods & drinks and order it for you, so you can take the stress out of language barriers. Also during the bar hopping, I can show you nice places in Shinjyuku.

If you want to experience the real daily life of Tokyo, rather than visiting tourist spots, this tour is perfect for you! Togoshi-Ginza Shotengai (local shopping street) is very long—1.3 km long. Sprinkled along its length are about 400 different shops. Togoshi-Ginza does not have high fashion or high-class restaurant ,but it is quaint, and representative of the typical shopping street, that most Japanese experience on a daily basis. Let's take a peek into daily life in Tokyo with me!

This is an invitation to a tasty and lively food experience at the No. 1 market, Tsukiji. The place is a treasure trove of delicious seafood, so let's sample some of the ’catch of the day’, sold fresh or skewered and grilled at the store front!

You want to experience Izakaya like locals? Are you a little reluctant to drink in Shinjuku Kabukicho or the youth town of Shibuya? If so, I recommend Ginza, Yurakucho area! The area has some different profiles. There are deep izakaya alleys underneath the JR railways that retain a postwar atmosphere and also high-end streets where the district became first westernized after the Edo period. You can enjoy 2 very different types of drinking spots while touching about the history.
