About Tour Guide Fumiko I.
Hello! I'm Fumiko, a licensed national tourist guide. I love Japanese culture such as Japanese way of arranging flowers, calligraphy, origami or folding paper, and wearing yukata. If you would like to experience these kinds of things Japanese, I can arrange for you. I'm good on Japanese history, too. I'd like to show you around Tokyo and other places with their historical backgrouds, if you like. As I had worked for a travel agency for a long time, I can help you travel smoothly and I'd like to meet your request as much as possible.
I often guide Asakusa, Ueno, East Garden of Imperial Palace, Tsukiji, Ryogoku, Yanesen, Meiji Jingu , Harajuku and so on.

“It was like having a best friend show us around ”
Fumiko was very well prepared, very kind and patient, and after two days with her as our guide it was very sad for my wife and I to say goodbye. Not having to work out how to navigate the various train station labyrinths allowed us to get around quickly and see so much more of Tokyo than if we tried to do this by ourselves. Fumiko also took us down tiny side streets which were easily overlooked but rich in history and interest. Going in to small eating establishments and not having to worry about trying to order etc was just part of the benefits of having a local guide. Having Fumiko as our guide was a wonderful investment, and experience. We are genuinely sad that we won't be sharing more adventures with her, Fumiko really became like a friend who enjoyed showing us her wonderful city. At least we will always have the memory of catching fish together in one of Tokyo's canals! Thank you.

“Fumiko worked hard to customize our tour”
Fumiko went above and beyond to make sure our tour was exactly what we wanted. Her knowledge was excellent. There was lots of communication before the tour. We are older and move more slowly and she found every elevator so we could avoid stairs. I really recommend hiring a guide to get more out of your visit.
