About Tour Guide Shusaku M.
My name is Shusaku. I was born and raised in Osaka, where I had the opportunity to immerse myself in the beautiful landscapes and rich culture of the region.
During my travels to 10 different countries, I came to realize the importance of listening to the locals to truly understand the culture and charm of a place. This experience taught me that local knowledge and experiences are invaluable in building a deeper understanding and connection while traveling.
In my tours, I make it a point to not only showcase the popular tourist destinations but also to share insights into the everyday lives of locals and the culture of the region. By incorporating stories and knowledge from locals, I aim to provide a more enriching travel experience.
My mission in life is to foster a deeper understanding of the world through travel and to build connections with people from different backgrounds. I look forward to creating unforgettable memories and sharing new discoveries with all of you!

“Shinjuku evening”
Lovely evening with good food but restaurant in Memory Lane and Bar in Golden Gai selected lacked the atmosphere of many of the establishments we walked past.

“Shu is the best!!!!”
Shu is by far the best guide in all of Tokyo. We had two excursions with him one food excursion, and the other one was a more cultural experience around the city. His attitude was impeccable and his energy was vibrant. We enjoyed every second with him and he is very well spoken and has a lot of information to share about the city of Tokyo. He understood us and our energy in the best way possible and he showed us Tokyo in a super authentic and local way, which is exactly what we wanted. His English is really good and he is very cultured in every aspect and any request or questions you have he was very happy to answer them or give you the best guidance possible. He is also a great photographer as he brings his camera to take pictures along the trip, which truly gives it a special touch so the experience can be remembered. This is not an overstatement Shu was truly amazing and if you get the chance to book him, please do, it will elevate your experience around Tokyo 100 times more. - Manolo, Dariia
Shusaku M.
Manolo and Dariia, Thank you so much for your kind and wonderful review. I truly appreciate your words. It was such a pleasure spending time with you both—I really enjoyed every moment. The Indiana Jones pamphlet from Manolo is something I will treasure for the rest of my life. I’m so happy to hear that you enjoyed the tours and experienced Tokyo in the way you were hoping for. I hope the rest of your journey in Japan is amazing. Please feel free to reach out anytime! ArigatoGozaimasu!!

“Updated review”
We had to cancel our evening tour with regrets as one of our group became unwell. Just wanted to make sure the guide didn’t get a poor rating because we had to cancel.
Shusaku M.
Thank you very much for your review. I was concerned about the member of your group who wasn’t feeling well, and I hope they are doing better. Please don’t worry at all about the rating—there is absolutely no problem. I also really appreciate you taking the time to send me a message. If you have another opportunity in the future, I would be more than happy to guide you again. I look forward to seeing you!

Asakusa, Ueno and the Imperial Palace itself are some of the examples. Let’s explore Tokyo with me and find the soul of Japan.
