Hello everyone!
I was born and raised in Kawagoe, a charming historic city located just next to Tokyo in Saitama Prefecture. Two years ago, I graduated from university here in Japan, and I now work as both a tour guide and a study abroad support advisor.
Three years ago, I had the life-changing opportunity to study abroad in Vancouver, Canada. The warmth and hospitality of the locals left a deep impression on me. I discovered the joy of immersing myself in a new culture and way of life, and I truly came to appreciate the beauty of connecting with people from diverse backgrounds.
Now, I want to be the one offering that kind of experience to others. As your guide, my goal is to make your journey in Japan truly special.
Through GoWithGuide, I strive to go beyond typical sightseeing—I want to create meaningful opportunities for you to engage with Japan’s rich culture and traditions on a deeper level.
I’m committed to providing a safe, thoughtful, and unforgettable experience for every guest.
Let’s not just visit Japan—let’s feel Japan.
Join me on this unique journey, and together, let’s discover the heart and soul of this incredible country.
I look forward to meeting you soon!

Hi Qudsia and wonderful family, Thank you so much for your kind words! It was a pleasure showing you around, even in the hot weather. I’m glad we had a wonderful time together, and I hope you enjoy the rest of your trip!

“Friendly and Safe Driving amidst erratic weather ”
Shunta-san took great care of me and my mum during the 1-day Mt Fuji trip. He checked the weather before and informed us about the chances of seeing Mt Fuji. But left the decision to switch plan to us. When the weather turns erratic (thunderstorm !! Haha), he proposes alternate plans for our considerations. He also offered knowledge about the JPN culture. He is patience and helpful to my mum with minor mobility issue. Most importantly, safe driving amidst erratic weather between Mt Fuji and Tokyo. Kudos to Shunta-san.

Thank you so much for your kind words! I’m really glad you and your mum enjoyed the trip. Thanks to you and your mom, I had a wonderful time too, even in the bad weather. Safe travels and I hope we meet again someday!

“Japan Trip”
We had the most amazing time with Shunta. He was very thorough and well educated about the places we choose to visit. He went with our pace and kept us on track to allow us to visit a multitude of places in a day. Our experience wouldn’t have been the same without him. He was easy to understand and very accommodating. Also a great photographer haha. Definitely recommend to anyone traveling to Japan.

I had a great time spending the day with you and capturing some memories along the way too! Please don’t hesitate to reach out if you visit Japan again—I'd be more than happy to guide you anytime. Wishing you all the best and safe travels!
