I have multiple jobs right now. One is a mediator and the other is an English teacher. After working for some life insurance company for about 40 years, I got a job for some Family Court as a mediator and I enjoy helping those who get in trouble. I also teach English for beginners, especially for TOEIC TEST. I love music. When I was in university student, I was a conductor for a male chorus. Since then I have been really into Opera. I don't mean to be pompous, but actually, I'm good at entertaining any guests at any occasion, as I had worked as head of sales, human resources, and branch manager. Almost a decade ago I had lived in Kyoto for 5 years and I have been enthralied by charm and attraction of Kyoto, such as history, culture, cuisine and beauty:as in cherry blossom in Spring, colorful leaves in Autumn and GION festival and so on. I'd like to share my experiences with everyone and guide all of you to Kyoto, Osaka, and Kobe.

Hi there! I’m Alex Before ending up in Japan, many years back, I had a nomad life across several Asian countries for many years as well. I spent most of that time in India, where among other activities I had my first experiences as a tour guide. There I also met my wife, and when the relationship got more serious we decided to settle down and have a more stable life, we chose Japan where she is from. Since then I had many personal experiences in this country in different fields such as human relations, jobs in different sectors, trips, bizarre situations, etc, experiences that I always like to share, together with some knowledge about aspects of the culture that I studied for years, just for the sake of getting knowledge without thinking that I would do this activity later on. By the way, I appreciate a lot the human factor, and besides having a responsibility I enjoy a lot just meeting and being with new people. In other words; I love this job, I love the culture I show, and I love human communication in itself. Let’s meet and spend time together so I can show you the best of this city, the cultural capital of Japan.

Hi,I'm Vicky. based in Osaka. I have been living in Japan 6 years.I used to be a radio host in China for 10 years before moved to Japan. which helped me develop strong communication skills and a warm presentation style. I completed my graduate studies in Japan, and now I’m excited to share this country’s culture, history, and everyday life with visitors from around the world. I am a native Chinese speaker, fluent in English, and also able to communicate in Japanese for daily conversation, so I can easily connect with guests from different backgrounds. Outside of guiding, I am passionate about traveling, exploring local cuisines, and enjoying K-POP music. I love discovering hidden gems and unique experiences, and I would be delighted to introduce you not only to Japan’s famous landmarks, but also to its local food, culture, and lifestyle. I look forward to making your time in Japan both memorable and enjoyable. Let’s explore together!

Gary S.
As an inbound tour guide and outbound tour leader, I have had the honor of serving guests from over 56 countries. I specialize in both private tours and bus higaeri (one-day) tours for Japanese local tourism services. I am also proud to be a 5-star-reviewed tour guide on other platforms. I speak Japanese, English, Mandarin, and Cantonese—skills I developed during my long-term career as a project manager in international joint ventures requiring multilingual and cross-cultural communication. This enables me to interact smoothly with tourists from regions such as Taiwan, Hong Kong (SAR), and mainland China, as long as we share a common language like English. In addition, I’m currently studying French, Spanish, Italian, and German to deepen my understanding of diverse cultures and enhance the experience I provide. I believe in the importance of omoiyari—the Japanese concept of empathy and consideration—an essential trait cultivated through personal growth, social experience, and professional challenges. I always strive to stand in my guests' shoes and provide thoughtful, personalized service. I also bring a sense of humor and optimism to my work, guided by a strong belief in the power of trust, shaped by my interest in Buddhism, Shintoism, and Protestant Christianity. In August 2024, I joined my first Heiro tour led by Japanese trainers, a couple who became certified Heiro masters after completing the practice 11 times. This experience enriched both my spiritual perspective and cultural understanding.

Tom K.
I’m a Japanese who live in Nara and deeply loves Nara Prefecture. I spent a long time traveling abroad, broadening my knowledge, and working as a tour guide. Then I returned to Nara in 2024. I can provide two appealing types of tours: 1. A tour visiting traditional World Heritage sites such as Todai-ji, Kasuga Taisha Shrine, and Nara Park. 2. A short hiking experience or hands-on, interactive sightseeing tour. (Both of types are posible to customizable.) Based in Nara, I will provide you with an incredible time filled with local insights and experiences.

Hi! I'm Shogo, National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter in English. "Shogo"? Looks a little bit hard to pronounce. So if you are interested in Samurai or Busho, call me "Shogun". (rather humble and hen-pecked at home, though.:) Just a little bit information about myself. I was born and grew up in Himeji, about 50km west of Kobe. When a child I quite often visited world-famous Himeji Castle. So it's like "MY castle." As a student, I lived in Kyoto for four years. I'm a father of three, and have lived in Kobe with my family for over 30 years. So I'm quite familiar with various tourist spots/attractions in Kyoto, Nara, Osaka, Himeji, Kobe and the like, all in western Japan. Also I've lived in Lawrence, Kansas, for two years in my 20s as a Jayhawk. Great old memory!:) Here are some of my specialties. First, I can show you around popular historical sites and relics in Kyoto, Nara, Osaka and Himeji. You'll surely feel the depth of Japanese culture by visiting these places. Second, I can offer you special tours of fancy sake breweries in Kobe, Nara and Kyoto. Third, I also guide you around Hiroshima, including magnificent Itsukushima Shrine. My goal/dream as guide interpreter is to help you explore and understand Japan and its culture with warm hospitality or Omotenashi. So please reach out to me any time, 24/7. For your super memorable trip, "Always with YOU" Shogo!:)

Je m’appelle Tatsuko. Je suis née à Osaka et en ce moment j’habite au nord de la préfecture de Nara, où il y a plein de temples et sanctuaires. Les statues bouddhiques m’intéressent beaucoup, Les cerfs toujours vous attendent. Osaka, ma ville natale, est connu comme capitale de gastronomie. J’aime beaucoup flâner dans les rues, appréciant des bâtiments. Voulez-vous visiter le Château, des jardins japonais, des bâtiments modernes et contemporains dans la ville? Kyoto est la capitale du tourisme au Japon. Saviez-vous que la ville de Kyoto se trouve à côté d’Osaka ou de Nara? Ça fait à peu près d’une heure en train. J’aimerais vous offrir une excellente experience comme guide officielle du Japon.
