About Tour Guide Shin N.

Welcome to Japan! I'm Shin. I have been an English Guide in Japan more than10 years.

I can guide Tokyo, Kanagawa and almost all metropolitan sightseeing and walking spots.

I was born in Kobe, grown up in Osaka, and studied in Kyoto,

so not only Tokyo but I also have a good knowledge of Japanese historical cities.

I love talking about Japanese food & culture, walking quiet narrow streets, drinking tasty Japanese whisky, Sumo, Rugby & Sports, and Japanese mountains.

I climbed Mt. Fuji 18 times with foreign guests. We enjoyed the auspicious moments of sunrising from the summit.


I would like to support you to make your stay in Japan memorable and precious one.

It is grateful if you refer to my proposed tour schedule,

in the case you have your own interests, I am happy to tailor the tour schedule responding your requests.


Please feel free to contact me.

I look forward to sharing wonderful time in Japan with you. Be my guest!


Reviews

One day tour of Tokyo

Our 9 hours one day tour with Shin covered almost the whole city of Tokyo. Started in Meiji Shrine, Takeshita Street, Omotesando, etc Then to Shibuya Crossing. Had a beautiful Tempura lunch. Walked to Imperial Palace & Mitsubishi Museum. Tokyo Tower observatory and Zojoji. Walked the areas of Yanaka and Nexus. Our guard Shin did an outstanding guarding our way though the complicated Subway system, without him we would have completed loss. I highly recommend Shin as your guard to Tokyo.

Thank you for your thoughtful review, Warren san. It was my pleasure that we enjoyed a long city walk even though Japanese summer still shows its strengths. As I explained this summer is the hottest and will become the longest summer in the Japanese History. We couldn’t control the heat. Thank you again your patience and challenge to walk through the tour. Our tour was flexible and tried to suit your interest. That was a good thing we could have enough communication to decide the schedule. Our tour requests us a bit busy and long walking, however, it is good to hear you & Margarita san made it and enjoyed it. Best regards, Shin
