About Tour Guide Yoko I.
Hello, I'm Yoko. I was born and brought up in Ashikaga, Tochigi prefecture (80 km north from Tokyo) and I've lived in Tokyo for more than 20 years.
I love traveling, both overseas and inside Japan. After I visited other countries and saw many local cultures there, I realized that Japan has a variety of unique cultures with a lot of tourist attractions.
I hope you enjoy your stay in Japan. I'm looking forward to seeing you soon!

“One day trip to Kamakura”
We had a wonderful day trip to Kamakura with Yoko , although it was probably the busiest Sunday for the season Yoko managed to get us to all the places we wanted to see and explained all the historical details of the various Shrines and Temples. Yoko is a lovely person and her language skill is excellent, we would thoroughly recommend Yoko for your guide in Japan. Many Thanks Yoko for a great tour Paul and Sue

Yoko I.
Thank you so much for posting such a lovely review, Paul and Sue! I’m glad to hear that you enjoyed our tour in Kamakura. I had a wonderful time with both of you. Honestly I worried if we could visit all the places smoothly because it was a beautiful Sunday in autumn. The traffic was heavier in some places, but I’m glad that everything went smoothly. Instead of getting on a crowded bus, we walked back to Kamakura station. I really appreciate your cooperation. Thank you so much for having me as your guide. I hope you have enjoyed your last part of your journey in Japan and you’ll get home safely.

“Relaxing Tour with Yoko”
I had a great tour with Yoko. She allowed me to customize my tour to Kamakura. I was still tired from my flight and she let me take the tour at an easy pace including visiting several shops. She picked a most delicious restaurant for lunch. She also showed me how to perform a Shinto ritual. She is such a sweet person!

It was a memorable day for me, thank you for having me as your guide. I hope you can get over jet lag and have a great holiday in Tokyo. Please take care.

“Tokyo and Imperial Palace area with Yoko”
My husband and I enjoyed a cold, but pleasant day with Yoko as our guide. Yoko is delightful and an informative guide. We had planned to take the harbor water bus but it was a cold February day. Instead we had lunch near the palace area and saw more of the town by taxi before returning to the Cruise Port.
Yoko I.
Thank you so much for posting such a wonderful review and the photo, Jean! It was a cold day and you didn’t look well, so I worried about if you were OK. I was sorry we couldn’t take a water bus, but I’m glad to hear that you enjoyed our tour. I’m grateful for your kindness. Thank you for having me as your guide again. I hope I can see you again someday in the near future. Please take care.
