About Tour Guide Yuki K.
I was born and grew up in Yokohama. I used to work in Tokyo for more than 20 years. I became the National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter in English in 2013. At first, I had attended a volunteer group which provided a tour of the Imperial Palace East Gardens until 2015. I guided more than fifty times in the garden as a volunteer and studied about Japanese history and culture. Based on this experience, I became a tour guide of this online site in 2015.
Since then, I have guided more than 500 tours in Tokyo as well as Yokohama, Kamakura, Hakone, Kyoto, Nikko, etc., while improving my tours. My tours are very flexible and I always do my best to customize them according to the interests of my guests. I studied about the places and will provide you knowledge to appreciate them deeper than just visiting there by yourself or a member of big group tours. I like foods and I know many restaurants which provide typical Japanese lunch with reasonable price without waiting too long. Therefore, I am sure that I can provide you the best tours customized to your interests. It will be my great pleasure to help you to enjoy your stay in Japan. So please be my guest!!

“Great tour around Tokyo!”
Yuki met us at our hotel and guided us for a really nice day in Tokyo. We saw shrines, temples, the Imperial Palace gardens, and even had an excellent sushi lunch. He took us over into the markets, and guided us back at the end of the day. Yuki was an excellent guide, and I would recommend him. We really enjoyed our time with him!

Dear Ignacio, Thank you for your review. It was cloudy but we were lucky to view graceful Mt. Fuji partly covered by cloud. Unfortunately, we couldn't visit the maple festival because of terrible traffic jam. Instead we enjoyed the lake cruise by the samurai boat. Thank you for taking my tours. Yuki

Its evolution is particularly notable for how it embraced international trade and modernization. Minato Mirai district is a large urban development.
