您们好!出生在長野县成長在大阪, 住在横滨,工作在東京羽田机场的日本人。
我,從小就很喜欢(❤ ω ❤)旅行跟各种各样的人说活。還有欣賞” 能乐”演出追求日本傳統文化的深奥,因此也深入研究做出”能乐”用的面具。在大学主修中文之后,進入社會已累績了三十多年的工作经验。 曾被派駐過中国北京,台灣,新加坡,俄国等國家受到各個國家朋友們的大力幫助。
现在,我,趁着2020年將舉辦東京夏季奧運會的機會,為各個国家的朋友們用中文和英文介绍一东京,横濱,镰仓,箱根,川越,川崎为主的关东地方。
例如,1,東京筑地市场,东京最古老的神社/浅草寺,东京最大的明治神宫,时装圣地的原宿/表参道,日本象征的天皇起居的皇居/原来的江户城堡,有很多老字号店铺的日本橋,有科学方面尖端技术的台场等地。2,明治维新后发达的离东京半个小时到达的横滨未来港口城市包括三溪园日本传统的庭园,在日本唯一独二的新横滨的拉面博物馆。 3,高为12米大佛的鎌倉,可享受在竹林里喝抹茶的报国寺,同时一起乘坐“江之电车”欣赏海边风景而吃到“章鱼仙贝”吧! 4.被叫做“小江户”的川越。 5,用一天的时间来去看富士山,箱根神社,泸之湖,大涌谷,6,最近我开始安排日本大企业所做的社会贡献活动‘参观工厂’,相信参观工厂也是对各位很有意思的体验,请在3个月以前跟我联络。
非常期待能取得与您的進一步联系,共同探索日本深奧的文化,精緻的藝術及分明的四季之美。

“The best guide for my clients!”
My clients enjoyed the tour so muca and I am glad to share their feedback: "Munetaka was the most knowledgeable and experienced guide we had throughout our trip to Japan and very good-humored and conscientious. He took such good care of us, and even got us some special treatment at the Tokyo Sky Tree, which was very crowded, so that my husband, who walks with a cane, would not have to wait in long lines for admission or the elevator. He brought us wonderful snacks and small gifts, including origami figures made for us by his wife. He also knew all of the restaurants in the areas we visited, and when his first choice was too full he quickly found another that we thoroughly enjoyed. He is extremely well-informed about Japanese culture and history." We cannot recommend him more highly!

“Open-Air Museum Tour with Munetaka ”
Such a lovely museum tour with Munetaka! Full of smiles and joy. It happened to have been a very rainy day in Hakone but nothing stopped him. We were willing to walk with umbrellas (he had none), walk up a very steep path (and many stairs) to the trolley to the museum (all with a lot of laughter) and made it to the museum, where he told us about his childhood memories there. He was kind and warm and just lovely! Thank you for these valuable memories!
