French Kanagawa Tour Guides

Dmitrijs B.

I have lived in Japan for 12 years so far, including 7 years in Tokyo and 5 years in Kamakura. I know these two places very well and would be glad to share my knowledge of Japanese history and culture with you. I speak four languages, including Japanese, and I enjoy meeting new people. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or requests. P.S. English is not my native language. I received a TOEFL iBT score of 108 many years ago, which corresponds to the advanced C1 level. However, there may still be some accent or occasional vocabulary slips. I appreciate your understanding :)

Hello! I am a French guide who has been living in Japan for over 26 years. I am passionate about Japanese history, culture, traditions and everyday life. My goal is not only to show you famous landmarks, but also to help you understand the stories, customs and way of thinking that make Japan so unique. I have more than one hundreds days of experience as a guide. If you wish a tour but which is not already in my created tours, in my area , I can create one according to your demands. I speak French, Japanese and English, which allows me to communicate easily with both visitors and local people. I offer private tours in Tokyo, Kamakura, Hakone, all regions in Kanto like Kawaguchiko, unknown places with a wonderful view of Mont Fuji from Shuzenji, Yokohama and the beautiful coastal town of Hayama. Whether you are visiting Japan for the first time or returning to discover hidden places, I will adapt each tour to your interests and pace. Before becoming a full-time guide, I worked as a French chef and pastry chef in Japan for many years. This experience has given me a deep appreciation of Japanese craftsmanship, hospitality and attention to detail. I enjoy sharing history, local stories, food culture and practical insights that you won’t always find in guidebooks. I look forward to helping you create unforgettable memories during your trip to Japan!

Akira Y.

Hi there, I'm Akira. — welcome to Japan! Born and raised in Yokohama, I've spent my entire career helping people communicate and connect: first as an English conversation instructor and teacher trainer, then as Head of the Education Department, and eventually as Director and CEO of a language school. What does that mean for you as my guest? It means easy to understand English communication, a warm and patient guiding style, and genuine, engaging conversation throughout the day — not just a list of facts and dates. I love sharing the stories behind what you see: the history, the culture, everyday life, and how Japan continues to change today. Having worked extensively in Tokyo and lived my whole life in and around Yokohama, I know this region inside and out — from the iconic landmarks to the quiet local spots most visitors never find on their own. Every tour I offer can be fully customized to match your interests, walking pace, and curiosity, whether that's history, food, photography, or simply a relaxed day of exploring. I can't wait to share my hometown and the wider Kanagawa area with you. Let's make your trip to Japan unforgettable!

Jalil E.

Hi, I'm Jalil ! I’ve called Japan my home for 15 years and speak English, French, and Arabic. Let's be honest: you don't need a guide to read Wikipedia facts or show you Google Maps routes. Instead, travelers book a day with me for mental peace, authenticity, and deep local insight. I absolutely love walking—it's how you truly learn a city and notice the charm of its tiny, hidden side streets. Spending a decade and a half living, working, and thriving in Kanagawa and Tokyo gives me firsthand knowledge of local networks and cultural nuances that algorithms miss completely. Respecting your time and energy, most of my tours are efficient, high-value 4-hour experiences where I handle the "hard part" first. We will conquer the complex train hubs, bypass heavy crowds, and unlock local culture together. Once you have your bearings, I'll hand you a list of local secrets and leave you with total free time to explore securely on your own! If you want a deep dive, I am always open to extending our journey into a full 8-hour day tour—just message me to scale the day. With me, you get a trusted multilingual friend who understands your international perspective, expectations, and travel needs. How I love to help my guests: • Hidden Local Secrets: I guide you past crowded commercial tracks into cinematic residential side-streets, hidden 700-year-old shrines, and authentic local neighborhoods. • Language & Etiquette Bridge: I act as your translator so you can comfortably eat at neighborhood spots with no English menus or browse traditional boutiques. • Honest, Commission-Free Guiding: I never accept shop kickbacks or use tourist traps. My recommendations are 100% independent. • Personal Photographer: I will gladly take nice photos of your group throughout our walk so everyone is in the picture! I am fully flexible and happy to customize the pace, starting times, and locations to match your group's comfort. Send me a message, and let’s design your perfect day in Japan!
