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!

“Feeling like a local for a night!”
We had such a great time with Shu! He took us to a few different neighborhoods where he talked about the history and enjoyed delicious food and beverages with us. Shu has an inviting energy that made us feel right at home. We would highly recommend using Shu for a guide, especially if you want to have a very fun night!

“Great Day with Shusaku (Shu)”
We highly recommend Shusaku (Shu) for a personalized tour of Tokyo. After scheduling, Shu curated a personalized 5 hour itinerary based on our interests within one day for the following day. He was very easy to communicate with, and his English was excellent. Shu has a great personality, was fun to talk to, and was very knowledgeable. He efficiently helped us navigate to all the sites via train. An unexpected and delightful addition was Shu's photographer skills. He arrived with his own camera, and that night after the tour, sent us amazing photos from all the locations we visited. Overall, it was a fantastic experience!
Shusaku M.

“Amazing time”
We had the most amazing time with Shu, he was very accommodating and planned our tour around what we wanted to do. He was knowledgeable and very funny! I also really loved that he took great pictures on a nice camera for us to have at the end. I would definitely rebook him as a guide. We were a group of 4.

Tokyo Hanami Tour
Cherry blossoms tell the start of Japanese spring. During cherry season, I will show you some of the best spots for "Hanami" in Tokyo. But the date of full blooming differs every year depending on the weather, which is hard to predict. Several predicting services compete in their predicting accuracy every year. Cherry blossoms usually start blooming late March and end at the beginning of April. They reach full blooming 7 days after starting and end 7 days later after full blooming.
