About Tour Guide Shusaku M.
My name is Shusaku. I was born and raised in Osaka, where I had the opportunity to immerse myself in the beautiful landscapes and rich culture of the region.
During my travels to 10 different countries, I came to realize the importance of listening to the locals to truly understand the culture and charm of a place. This experience taught me that local knowledge and experiences are invaluable in building a deeper understanding and connection while traveling.
In my tours, I make it a point to not only showcase the popular tourist destinations but also to share insights into the everyday lives of locals and the culture of the region. By incorporating stories and knowledge from locals, I aim to provide a more enriching travel experience.
My mission in life is to foster a deeper understanding of the world through travel and to build connections with people from different backgrounds. I look forward to creating unforgettable memories and sharing new discoveries with all of you!

“Fantastic Bar Tour”
We had a great time on the bar hopping tour with Shushaku. He showed us some fantastic places where we got to try many different types of foods/drinks, and he explained everything in detail answering every question we had. We had some specific requests about places we wanted to go and Shushaku was happy to help. Not only did he do a fantastic job as a tour guide but he also took loads of great pictures along the way for no extra charge. Genuinely a really nice guy, who made us laugh and the perfect drinking buddy.

“A Perfect First Night in Tokyo with Shusaku”
We had the best first night in Tokyo with Shusaku! It was the perfect intro to the city—great vibes, amazing food, and a fun way to get our bearings. He took us through Memory Lane, Kabukicho, and Golden Gai, giving us a real taste of Tokyo nightlife. We loved sharing sake, hopping between bars and trying all kinds of local dishes. Shusaku was super friendly, easy to talk to, and knew exactly where to go (he even book some places in advance!). Such a fun and easy way to kick off our trip!

“Fantastic day with Shusaku! ”
We had a fantastic day with Shusaku. He was engaging, attentive, extremely helpful, and a lot of fun to be with. We went to Tsujiki Market where we tried a wide variety of delicious foods before sitting down for conveyor belt sushi. The market was bustling with a lot of people and Shu did a great job of keeping us together and moving us along. He took care of us in every way - helping us select delicious foods and even taking our trash (there are few trash reciprocals). We relaxed and enjoyed ourselves while he figured out the details. We then went to Shinjuku Gyoen National Park. Shusaku showed us the beautiful lake, pointed out the cherry blossom trees, and found us a lovely tree to sit under for a break (it was quite warm). He checked constantly to be sure he had everyone in our group (we are 6 people) and that everyone was comfortable He pointed out bathrooms and water refilling stations. Best if all - and most unexpectedly - he brought a camera and took photos of our group all along the way. We now have a photo journal of our first day which we never would have had. This is a lasting gift for us and we are most grateful! Finally, we went to Donki and Shu helped me find items I had on a list to bring back to friends. If you have ever been to Donki, you know how overwhelming it is. He helped me find everything I was looking for. Having a guide who is nice, relatable, fun to be with, and knows his way around the city and trains made our first day a lot more relaxing than it would have been if we’d gone on our own. One other thing - he was most helpful with figuring the trains. While most of us had the Suica on our iPhones, one person needed physical tickets because he had an android phone. Shusaku was extremely helpful with this as well. By the time we returned to the hotel, I received all of the photos and a nice note from Shusaku offering to help us if we need anything during our stay.. I highly recommend him as a guide! Thanks Shu!
