Daizaburo N.

Hi ! I am Daizaburo. Please call me Dai-chan (chan is a suffix expressing friendliness). I am a National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter living in Shimane (western part). I was born and brought up in Shimane and worked as a teacher of English in high school for more than 30 years. I have been interested in tour guides for a long time.

I will try hard to make your stay in Japan very special and memorable. Let's explore our beautiful and exciting country together. I'm very friendly and kind, too. For any concerns, please just contact me. I am here to help you! See you soon !

Mio Z.

A warm welcome from Tsuwano—a hidden jewel nestled in Japan’s breathtaking mountain landscapes. I’m Mio, your personal guide to the authentic beauty and rich history of this enchanting region. While I regularly host group tours and exclusive shore excursions for cruise guests, my true passion lies in crafting bespoke, off-the-beaten-path experiences for discerning travellers like you. The Chugoku region, where I call home, is a treasure trove of natural wonders and cultural heritage, offering a serene escape from the well-trodden tourist trails. To ensure your journey is as seamless as it is memorable, I’d be delighted to tailor every detail to your preferences—whether it’s accommodating specific mobility needs, dietary requirements, or unique interests. If you’re seeking a deeper connection with Japan’s countryside, paired with insightful conversations and hidden local gems, I’d be honoured to be your guide. Let’s create an experience that’s as extraordinary as the destination itself. I look forward to welcoming you to this remarkable corner of Japan.

Hideo Y.

Hello, I'm HIDEo YOSHIda. Please call me HIDEYOSHI, the same name as the famous shogun who built the Osaka Castle in 1585. I was born in Kobe and worked in Osaka for nearly 40 years. I would like to introduce the Kansai region to you ,including Kobe, Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, and Wakayama. Kobe is one of the two largest ports in Japan, along with Yokohama. After the opening of the Port of Kobe in 1868, foreigners built their residences on the hillside of the Kitano-cho area, overlooking the ocean. Many of the foreign residences are now open to the public as museums, including the Weathercock House, with it's symbol weathercock on the triangle-shaped roof. In Meriken Park, the red Port Tower (the city's landmark), creates a beautiful contrast against the white Kobe Marine Museum. The museum's design was inspired by the waves and sailing ships. When you have a chance to visit Osaka, please join my tour. I'm sure you'll enjoy the interesting and historical, scenic spots. For example, Shin-Sekai is a downtown area with a strange mix of nostalgic atmosphere and contemporary energy. You can try local foods (kushikatsu, sushi, tempura) at a reasonable price. Billiken (a famous statue of the spirit of luck) will be waiting for you!!. Dotombori is a popular street with a lot of flashy signboards. Osaka is widely known as a "Kuidaore-no-machi", or literally "drinking and eating luxuriously to death." Osaka Castle was built by Toyotomi HIDEYOSHI in 1585. Oh, it's my residence, isn't it ! These days "The Wizarding World of Harry Potter" area in USJ, or Universal Studios Japan, is also attracting more and more people. I'll be looking forward to seeing you !!

Hugh C.

Hi! Thanks for reviewing my profile. I am Australian, from Sydney originally, but my life with Japan and its culture and history spans 40 years, and I have been a Hiroshima resident for 25 of those 40 years. I joined GoWithGuide in 2019, but I have led many tours in Hiroshima and more widely throughout metropolitan and regional Japan, sharing conversations about the unique society, its fascinating culture, and history. I also have written several tourism blogs for inbound tour companies and also the Hiroshima Prefectural Tourism Bureau. I speak fluent Japanese and I have immersed myself in the experience of living here in modern and traditional culture and spent many years studying martial arts Aikido and Iaido. I also have a strong interest in Buddhist teachings. My Japanese calligraphy work over the years has been received recognition and several awards and commissions both in Japan and elsewhere. I'm looking forward to spending a great experience sharing the culture and history of Hiroshima with you.

Sameera G.

I am Sameera, with over two decades of experience living and working in Japan. I graduated from Ritsumeikan Asia Pacific University and have since dedicated my career to revitalizing local communities through tourism. My journey has taken me from Tokyo to the picturesque Oki Islands and the charming town of Okuizumo. In Ama Town, I spearheaded the "Shimayado" project, transforming local inns into thriving tourist destinations. In Okuizumo, I founded the tourism association, successfully attracting a diverse array of visitors, including international cruise tourists. Currently, I am developing an innovative tourism product sales platform in the San'in region. I collaborate closely with local governments and tourism associations to showcase the area's unique attractions to global tourists. With an intimate knowledge of every nook and corner of the San'in region, I can create bespoke tours that offer unforgettable experiences. Let me guide you through the hidden gems of rural Japan, ensuring a truly memorable journey.

Ritsuko Y.

Hi, I'm Ritsuko. I started guiding for tourists as a local volunteer guide and has been serving as a national certified guide since 2014. I really like meeting people from around the world. Nothing is more fun and valuable than listening to them and sharing views and thoughts. I was born and raised in Shimane. I lived in other cities in Japan and abroad for my career and study. Shimane's abundant natural beauty brought me back here, then I started working as a guide. In my earlier career, I had served as a speech and communication therapist at hospitals for 11 years. I provided individual rehabilitation programs for patients who has various language problems and needs. I have met a lot of people in different generations. Personality, interest and background are different from people to people. Through my career, I have acquired skills to catch what he or she needs and provided suitable service for them. My current clients are happy with my smile, attentiveness and easy-to-understand guide. In my tour, you can not only go to spots and learn history and culture, but you have a lot of opportunity to experience such as climbing up a high light house, choosing your favorite Japanese sweets for matcha green tea, meditation in an old temple, etc. So, ask me if you have a plan to visit Japan. I will help you enjoy every minute of your stay in Japan. I hope to see you soon!
