About Tour Guide Ryoko E.
Hi, I am Ryoko, a Oyama Area Licensed Guide Interpreter. Oyama is located in western place in Kanagawa and known as a sacred tourist spot for Edo commoners.
Based on my experience working for an international company, I try to respect and have a dialogue with people from various cultures. I offer ideas for visiting spots together, eating, learning, and experiencing Japanese life in Isehara, as well as in the surrounding Kanagawa, and Tokyo area, which are difficult for foreign tourists to enter alone. Also, since I love books so much that I run a reading community in Isehara, we can consider plans that tie in with literature and legends.

“The amazing real Japan from start to end !!!”
This is the best of any day tours I’ve done and with one of the best guide Ryoko. As she is kind and very informative, her love for Japan was on show today and boy did it not disappoint. Amazing time checking out the local attractions away from the busy mainstream social media of Japan. I cannot thank you enough for the honour of the tour and it was a privilege in every sense. I look forward to future travels and will be in contact again without hesitation. Amazing person, amazing day, you’re too kind and generous to have the day planned for me. It was such a pleasure, 心から感謝します.
“OUTSTANDING EXPERIENCE !!!”
Ryoko set up a fully customized historical tour in Chiba for me, including the National Museum of Japanese History, which has very few displays in English. She was well prepared, we had some great conversation, and it was a delight to spend the afternoon being guided by her. I would highly recommended her to anyone looking for a top-tier day tour guide in Japan.
