Let's enjoy the scenic beauty at Hakone
Hakone, a scenic site, is only 1 hour away from Tokyo by train.
It is also a popular spot for Tokyoites to spend a weekend or one-day trip.
Why don’t you spend your free time at Hakone, where you can enjoy Lake Ashinoko and a volcano in a day?
It is highly recommended to book with my other tour plan, "Traditional and Modern One-day Tour in Tokyo," as you can fully enjoy your Tokyo stay within a limited time.

I now work as an English translator and an interpreter at home, and my availability is very flexible.
I have been working for the business with American companies for many years and have many experiences guiding customers from all over the world, from Japan to the USA and Europe.
I lived in Amsterdam, the Netherlands, for five years and loved to drive around Europe, the USA, and Japan.
I now have a national license as a guiding interpreter and want to introduce Japanese traditional culture to people worldwide who are interested in it.
I can be your guide in Tokyo, Yokohama, and Kamakura for your enjoyable time in Japan.

Thank you very much for your review. I wanted to take you to more sites, but the starting point (Yokohama) was a bit handicapped for doing so. Anyway, I feel happy you could enjoy my tour!

“Great tour with a lot of walking ”
Great tour to get more than just photos of temples and shrines. Atsushisan did a wonderful job explaining each of the shrines and temples and their significance. There was a lot of walking between shrines down city sidewalks. Although the adults didn’t mind the walk, our three kids 8, 10, and 12 got tired. They enjoyed the shrines. Atsushi was very patient.

Thank you very much for your review. I am happy to know you enjoyed my tour. I hope you will come back to Japan someday!

“Best tour guide in Tokyo!”
My mother, sister and I visited Tokyo to view cherry blossoms with Atsushi as our guide. Atsushi is very fluent in English, punctual, knowledgeable of history, culture and religion in Japan, helpful, and also patient and considerate of our walking pace. We had an enjoyable tour created for our interest and abilities. Atsushi also helped us with getting Shinkansen train card and tickets to the next city we planned to visit. I highly recommend Atsushi, everything was very well planned.
Atsushi K.
Thank you very much for your appreciation. It is my pleasure to have provided such a pleasant time with people like you three. I hope you will have another chance to visit Japan someday, and please get in touch with me then again.
