I studied abroad in the United States and the United Kingdom, where I met wonderful people from all over the world and developed a truly global mindset.
Before becoming a full-time guide, I worked as an IT engineer, hotel receptionist, and manager of a maid cafe—experiences that help me connect naturally with travelers from many different backgrounds.

June, thank you so much for your incredibly kind words! Visiting Atami was truly the perfect choice—the town was lively and full of local Japanese people, still largely undiscovered by international tourists. From the bullet train ride, seeing Mt. Fuji through the train window, enjoying delicious red snapper, capsule toys, strawberry desserts, to the breathtaking views at the art museum—it was such a memorable experience. Let’s definitely try an onsen hot spring next time! I already miss you so much as well!

“Amazing tour!”
Setting up the fully customisable tour was super easy and convenient, Melody’s English is great! Melody organised an amazing tour/experience along side a few things I wanted to see. Also learned a lot about daily life in Tokyo and local customs. Would definitely recommend!

Paolo, thank you so much for your heartfelt comment! You are such a gentle, stylish, and energetic man. We truly enjoyed visiting Hamarikyu Japanese Garden, Tsukiji Market, teamLab Planets, Meiji Shrine, Takeshita Street, Shibuya Crossing, Akihabara (anime town), and the maid cafe together. We made so many precious memories! You already seem very familiar with Japanese history and culture, but I hope you will come to love Japan more and more with each day!

Akihabara Maid Cafe Tour by Former Maid Cafe Manager
The first maid cafe was started in Akihabara. Nowadays, there are around 200 maid cafes alone in Akihabara. Maids will welcome guests of all genders, generations, and nationalities, but some have difficulties in English communication. No problem. I can help you talk to them! The good news is that I was a manager at one of the largest maid cafe chains and led 40 maids. Other Otaku activities are also included in the tour. Hopefully, all anime, pop idol, and gadget Otaku can enjoy the tour!

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.
