Hello.
I was raised in several places, such as Tokyo, Yokohama, Kobe, Osaka, and Nagoya.
After my professional sales experience for a business machinery company in Yokohama, I pursued an opportunity to teach in China.
I worked as a Japanese teacher to foreigners in Shanghai.
The longer I lived abroad, the more I came to appreciate the unique aspects of Japanese culture. So I started learning English and Chinese to become a bridge to help bring foreign visitors closer to Japanese culture.
I would be horored to be your guide as you tour our historically rich country. I am looking forward to traveling Japan with you. Thank you.
大家好。我叫Maru, 来自东京。在上海生活过七年半。在东华大学学了两年半汉语。2012年得到日语教师资格证后一边学习日本历史文化相关知识一边从事日语教师工作。2018年回到日本开始用英语当导游。2019年终于能开始用汉语当导游了！我想成为世界各个国家和日本友好关系的桥梁。我对历史，美食、名胜古迹都很感兴趣。如果能跟大家一起旅游，我很高兴。谢谢。
Reviews
“Wonderful Customization”
Maru was a delight. She provided a tour for my two friends and myself celebrating a milestone birthday. We exchanged a few rounds of messages to customize us (for example, us older guys were not too interested in in Harajuku). She was quite tolerant of my friend who had his first trip to Japan, and had many questions. I sought our Maru even though I add travel to Japan for more than two decades because I thought it would be a nice way to kick-off the trip - and it was indeed!
“Amazing Tour Guide”
We booked a tour with Maru for our first full day in Tokyo and it was amazing! She helped give us a layout of the city, metro, temples, etc. She was sweet and knowledgeable. She was keen to show us things that interested our two teens along the way. Highly recommend Maru!
“Great tour of Tokyo”
We were lucky enough to connect with Maru for a a 1 day tour of Tokyo. Having never been there before we were excited to see some of the iconic sights and experience the city. Maru did not disappoint, always ensuring our itinerary was up to expectations and making changes on the fly to ensure we had the best experience. Maru also helped us understand the vast Tokyo subway system - no easy feat as it is massive. If you are looking for a great tour guide then look no further. Maru will not disappoint you!

It was a pleasure showing you around and helping navigate the vastness of the city—especially the subway! I'm glad we were able to adapt the itinerary to match your interests and ensure you got the most out of your time here. If you ever return to Tokyo or need recommendations for future travels, I’d love to guide you again. Safe travels and hope to see you soon! Warm regards, Maru

How about an enjoyable walking in Tokyo?
There are lots of sightseeing spots in Tokyo. I will arrange a customized one-day tour based upon your requirements so that you could enjoy your stay in Tokyo. We can discuss and decide places to visit effectively for a limited amount of time. One example is shown here as follows, but I'm sure I will take you to some of my best selections so that you could enjoy both of traditional and modern culture. I can arrange an appropriate lunch restaurant based upon your requirement.
Tokyo One-day As You Like with Kaori
This tour fits all, from first timers to repeaters who love local experiences. You can choose what you like from spots listed, or I can pick up for you if you don't have clue. Just let me know your preferences. I can make a good combination of old and modern, major and local. Tokyo has a lot more to experience besides the list. As full day tour, please pick up 3 or 4 spots. Or you can request specific spot not on the list. "Enjoy together with fun learning" is what you can expect with me.
