About Tour Guide Keiko T.
Hello. I am Keiko, a nationally licensed tour guide for English-speaking tourists. I love traveling to new places, experiencing different cultures, and meeting new people. When I was young, I embarked on a long journey to explore more about my life. I settled in a small town in Illinois, USA, enjoying a new life while studying at the state university, and then moved to Florida to work for a while.
After coming back to Japan, I have been working in downtown Tokyo since 2008, mainly as a translator and sometimes as an interpreter in various fields, including central government offices, TV stations, and a university. Seeing the increased opportunities around the Tokyo Olympics 2020, I transitioned into the tourism industry and am currently working as a tour guide, basically giving day tours of downtown Tokyo, Fuji & Hakone, Kamakura and Nikko.
I love meeting people from different backgrounds, talking with them, and learning new things. That's why I enjoy hosting guests from abroad who want to explore Japan. Many local people helped me during my journey, and now it's time for me to give back. Come and meet me here; I will show you around amazing places in Japan.

“Very good guide!”
We spent 1 1/2 days touring Tokyo with Keiko. Everything was well paced and informative. She was very conscientious of our limitations and very patent! We adjusted the itinerary to see what we wanted and it was perfect! Keiko even walked us through the Central train station so we would know how to take the bullet train to Kyoto later in our trip.

Thank you for your kind review. I’m glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour with me. I also had a great time with both of you. I hope you are continuing to have a wonderful trip, and that the rest of your stay in Japan will be just as memorable.

“Great day in Tokyo”
We spent our first day in Tokyo (indeed our first day in Japan) with Keiko. As we had only one day, she tailored an itinerary according to our wishes, which combined several areas in the city and really made the most of our time. She's an excellent guide, very friendly and generous, answering all our (many...) questions and sharing her views on life in Japan freely. Thank you for a most memorable day, Keiko!

Thank you very much for your kind review. It was a pleasure guiding you here in Tokyo. I’m delighted to know that the tour was a memorable experience for you. I also truly enjoyed showing you around while sharing both the history and current aspects of Japan. Your enthusiasm for learning about our culture and history made the experience even more rewarding for me as a guide. I hope you returned home safely. If you have another opportunity to visit Japan, I would be more than happy to guide you again.

“Perfect start-up”
Keiko came and met us at our airbnb and helped kickstart our trip på Tokyo! It felt very safe having her help us getting started with three kids and a jetlag, perfect to have a local to help us figuring things out! We got the hang of the trainsystem and felt capable of going around by ourself the next day. She showed us some good spots for gravbing lunch, cherry blossom viewings and other things we wanted to see. She was so sweet and helpful, and adjusted the schedule due to both rain and needs of the group. Would recommend her to future travellers!

Tokyo,Now &Then
Tokyo is a modern metropolitan city built on an ancient Edo, where Tokugawa samurai government was settled. Even now we can find old relics of ancient Edo among truly modern Tokyo streets. Asakusa, Ueno and the Imperial Palace itself are some of the examples. Let’s explore Tokyo with me and find the soul of Japan.
