About Tour Guide Kota A.
Hello everyone! My name is Kota.
After graduation from a university in Japan I spent a year in Vancouver, Canada, on a working holiday. While working as a server at a sushi restaurant, I had many opportunities to interact with guests who loved Japan, while also learning about Canadian culture from them. Those experiences became truly meaningful to me, and now I would like to take on that role here in Japan—sharing the beauty of my country with visitors and creating unforgettable memories together.
Tokyo is a world-famous metropolis, but beyond its well-known landmarks, it is full of hidden gems that are less crowded and waiting to be discovered. I would be delighted to explore such places with you and do my very best to make your trip to Japan a wonderful experience.
Since I am originally from Hiroshima, I am also very familiar with Kyoto, Hiroshima, and Osaka. I would be happy to give you helpful advice if you plan to visit those areas. And if our schedules align, I would love to guide you around my hometown Hiroshima, as well as Shiga where I spent my student years, or even Kyoto and Osaka. Please feel free to reach out anytime!
I enjoy watching soccer (especially Manchester United!), and I also like beer and whisky.
I’m really looking forward to meeting you all :)

“An amazing guide, a day filled with fun - Akihabara Tour”
We had a wonderful experience with our guide, Kody (Kota). From the very beginning, his communication was clear, timely, and thoughtful. He reached out ahead of time to confirm details and made sure our meeting point at Akihabara Station was easy to find, which made the start of the day stress-free. The tour itself was fantastic. Kody guided us through Akihabara Electric Town, tailoring the pace and stops to our family’s interests. He knew exactly where to take us for anime, games, and arcades, and he made sure we had a great time experiencing the unique atmosphere. We especially appreciated his flexibility—he was happy to adjust the plan along the way so everyone could enjoy themselves. Lunch at Gyukatsu Motomura was another highlight, and Kody helped make the experience smooth and enjoyable. At the end of the tour, he kindly offered to drop us back at our hotel. Overall, Kody is friendly, knowledgeable, and very accommodating. He made exploring Akihabara fun and easy, and we would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a personalized Tokyo experience.

Dear Aida, Thank you so much for your warm review. I truly enjoyed my time with all of you as well. I’m so happy to hear that you enjoyed the lunch and the places we visited!

“Accommodating and Relaxing”
Kody was an amazing host and guide. We had a medical situation and he proceeded to take us to the clinic and wait for us to be completely finished with our appointment. He then proceeded to take us to 7-11 helped us figure out how to order and make our smoothies, and then took us to see Lake Yamanaka. It was so amazing for my mother and I and he was so patient with us every step of the way. As a foreigner coming to Japan, he made sure we were taken care of. Thank you!!!
