Feel free to ask me anything
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!

“Day of Shopping all over Tokyo”
Shu was fantastic!! He asked him to help us with shopping for very specific items all over Tokyo. He mapped out the stores and locations to maximize our shopping time. He helped navigate the trains and translated for us the whole day. He also took pictures/candies of us throughout the day and made it such a pleasant experience. I would highly recommend Shu!!!

“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!
