Come explore Tokyo with me, a true-blue Japan lover and avid world traveler! Hi, I am Samantha from Singapore and it is nice to meet you!
Having lived here for 13 years, I love Japan very much and still view it with a perspective of playfulness, curiosity, and amazement. There are always new places to discover and have fun. My guide experience began with private tours for family and friends who have visited me throughout all these years. I am excited to showcase the beauty and uniqueness of Japan to you too.
I love meeting and connecting with new people. I have been to several countries and my most recent experience was a 1 month solo trip to Eastern Europe. I also took the opportunity to volunteer at a Romanian dog shelter. Despite being abused, their affection for humans remains and touched me deeply. Kindness not only can be extended to humans but also to animals, an integral part of our planet.
As a global traveler, I understand how nerve-racking it can be to visit a new place. I have been fortunate to meet warm and kind locals on my travels. I want to extend to you this same warmth and kindness. I will be your guide to navigate the sprawling spaces, experience the wonders of Japan, and be your friend away from home. My aim is to create a warm and welcoming space for you to immerse, learn, and relax here.
Let me take you on a fascinating journey of discovery, knowledge, and interactions! Together, we will explore and create unforgettable memories of your trip here!
** Feel free to contact me for a one-of-a-kind customized tour. I am happy to work out the details with you.
你好 ! 我是萨曼莎。 我来自新加坡,在日本生活了 13 年。 这些年来,我一直有家人和朋友来日本。我喜欢带他们游览日本。
作为一名环游世界的旅行者,我喜欢结识新朋友并与他们建立联系。 我理解在一个陌生的地方,对语言和文化知之甚少或一无所知是多么令人伤脑筋。 在我的所有旅行中,我很幸运能够遇到热情友善的当地人。他们欢迎我来到他们的国家并教我他们的文化。 同样,我想为您创造一个温暖而温馨的空间,让您在日本沉浸、学习和享受。 我对展示这个国家之美的热情促使我创建了这些旅游项目。 我真的很高兴与您分享它们!
让我带您踏上一段奇妙的发现、知识和互动之旅! 我们将一起探索并为您的旅行留下难忘的回忆!
如有任何疑问,请随时与我联系。 我可以根据您的喜好、时间和需求量身定制行程。

“Feeling at home in Tokyo”
We are a small family with 2 kids and we were worried about our first visit to japan. Samantha was very helpful and allowed us to gently settle into the fast paced Tokyo environment quickly. Had a really smooth and wonderful trip, thanks to her.

(2 reviews)Hi Addison Thanks for your kind review. It was a great pleasure meeting you and your family. I am glad that the tour of Shibuya, Harajuku and Shinjuku was useful in giving an overview of Tokyo, in addition to providing details of Japanese etiquette and navigating the Tokyo trains. Hope you had an enjoyable ski trip and the kids had a fun time in the snow !
