I usually play tennis with my friends every weekend and am tough enough to take you around everywhere you would like to visit in Tokyo area. I've studied at the university and worked for the company located in Tokyo total over 40 years, and so I know main popular sightseeing spots and fantastic spots though not so popular. Day and Night in Shinjuku, Meiji shrine and Takeshitadori in Harajuku, Crossroads in Shibuya, Imperial Palace in the center of Tokyo, High brand shopping street in Ginza, Several Museums and quiet Forest in Ueno and Oldfashioned Nakamise and Sensoji temple in Asakusa. Of course, I can take you to 5th station of Mt. Fuji, Ropeway and Pirate Ship in Hakone, Shrines and Temples in Kamkura or Gorgeous Toshogu Temple in Nikko. Since I 've already done bus tour guide several times for H.I.S. and JTB, I can take care over 10 people at the same time around Tokyo using public transportation. Please send message to me, so I can make original tour course just for you, for 4 hours, 8 hours or all day long.
Hi, I'm Yoko, a National License Tour Guide. I speak with an American accent, 'cause I lived in Seattle, Washington for six years in my childhood(3-9 years old). My tours might be better with people who love to walk. Now I live within a walking distance from Ueno Park, Tokyo, so I see a lot of International tourists walking around in my neighborhood every day. (I'm giving some discounts on some of the tours, and I would appreciate if you could see things better at a reasonable price and I'm keen to introduce the places, so PLEASE CHECK EACH TOUR. The expenses are spelled out, too.) "Tokyo is larger than we thought and the transportations are so complicated," Swedish guys told me. I'm here to help you. I know well about Tokyo, Yokohama, Yamanashi etc. and I travel most of the parts of Japan. I would appreciate if you could see more sightseeing spots with me as your guide and enjoy your stay. I love to answer your questions, even though I became nearly breathless when I was with American guests, a family of three, curiously asking me questions after questions:-) I appreciated their interest in Japan very much. I also go mountain trekking for twenty five years. I've been to the summit of Mt. Fuji and Mt. Kitadake three times. Talking about Mt. Takao, maybe more than fifty times. I hope we can enjoy the beautiful view together. I'm looking forward to seeing you soon and having a good time together. Hope to hearing from you soon.
I am Tomomi Yuyama, a National Government Licensed English-speaking tour guide. I was born and raised on the foot of Mt. Fuji which embraces great nature and wildlife. As the local guide familiar with the historic sites related to Mt. Fuji and its natural beauty, I can make your trip more fascinating and enjoyable. It is a great joy for me to help you have amazing experiences and unforgettable memories around the Mt. Fuji area. As the certified nature guide, I can arrange trekking tours in Aokigahara forest, "Sea of Trees" and customize tours according to your interests. I love to interact with people who have the different cultural backgrounds as the cultural exchanges with them enrich my life. Through various activities in my tours, I would like you to feel closer to Japan and its people! All you need is just curiosity, so come and join me with fun!
(English) ↓Spanish version down below ↓ My name is Toshi Nakahara. I am certified tour guide for both English and Spanish. I have lived in USA for 15 years in total starting from Iowa when I was in a high school as an AFS exchange student and later in Honolulu, Los Angeles, San Francisco and finally in New Jersey as a business man. I learned Spanish at Osaka University for Foreign Studies for 4 years and lived in Mexico, Venezuela and Ecuador for more than 5 years in total, and travelled some other countries in Latin America and Spain. I am a certified Wine sommelier and quite knowledgeable about Japanese Sake. So in addition to the regular tour of metropolitan Tokyo area and its vicinity, I can take you to very authentic and popular restaurants where you can enjoy wonderful world of Japanese cuisine with some local drink. That is my strength, so to speak. I can do one day or half day tour for weekends for Metropolitan Tokyo area, but also can cater to the needs of people who want to be guided to some deep, casual and reasonably priced "Izakaya" style drinking places during weekdays after 5:00PM if I am open. I can also guide, if schedule allows, Yokohama, Kamakura, Hakone, Mt. Fuji vecinity, Nikko and some popular places in western Japan like Kyoto, Nara and Osaka as I lived there for many years. I enjoy talking about many topics such as Japanese culture and of your own country. My motto is to make visiting friends from overseas experience memorable moments and make them feel at home and happy. (Ahora en español) Me llamo Toshi Nakahara. Yo soy el guía turística certificado de Español y de Ingles. Estudié la lengua española en la Universidad de Osaka para estudios extranjeros por 4 años y un año en la Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México. Después, tuve la oportunidad de trabajar en Venezuela por 2 años y en Ecuador por 2 años. Soy también sommelier certificado de vino y tengo bastante conocimiento en Sake. No solamente poder guíar los visitantes extranjeros por la zona popular de Tokio y su vecinidad durante los dias al fin de la semana, puedo tambien introducir a unos bares o tavernas típicos conocidos como "Izakaya" en los días de la semana después de 5 de la tarde. Me gusta explicar sobre muchos temas culturales del Japón y conocer culturas de sus países. Mi motto es servirles a ustedes en la forma mas agradable y memorable haciendo todo lo posible para que sean ustedes feliz y satisfecho. "Con un poco de vino, me siento divino"
