About Tour Guide Yukiko K.
My name is Yukiko . I have a national license for a tour guide in English. I live in Tokyo on weekdays and go back to my house in Kamakura on weekend. I like both cities.
Tokyo is one of the most exciting cities in the world. Kamakura is a traditional city with history and nature. I like communicating with people.
My family and I had homestay students from all over the world and my children call me "mother of the world." I like learning foreign languages. I speak a little German and I learned a little Italian last year. I also have a license for teaching Japanese to foreigners as a second language. It would be a great pleasure for me to make your trip to Japan more valuable and impressive through my explanation of Japanese culture and history,
I am looking forward to seeing you.

“Modern and traditional Tokio”
We have a great time in Tokio with our guide Yukiko. We do together a private tour tailor made. It was important for us to see Tokio from 2 perspektive- traditional but also modern city. Yukiko show us Imperial Garden, Ueno Park, Meiji Shrein but we see modern architecture create by Japanese architects (ex. Tokio Station building, Tokio Palace…). An interesting Buliding was International Library of children literature where the old building was covered by Glass Fassade. Thank you Yukiko for your support Daniela & Michael

Yukiko K.
Their hotel location was perfect, yet sometimes we had to walk a lot in each destination. They believed me and followed me patiently. Michael sent me photos which became my precious records while working as a guide. Daniela 's jokes made us happy. They were so intelligent and they really appreciated modern and traditional sides of Japan not only by history but through architecture in the tour with their insight. It was a great pleasure for me. I also felt friendship between Japan and Germany. Thank you and have a nice trip, Daniela and Michael! Yukiko
