Japanese Tokushima Tour Guides

Takanori K.

I was born and raised in Kagawa, but I also spent several years living abroad, including in the United States, so I’m fluent in English. I can share a wide range of insights about Kagawa—from its history and culture to great photo spots, delicious local food, and fun trivia you won't find in guidebooks. Let me be your guide and make your journey truly unforgettable!

Aoi K.

Hello, I’m Aoi. Please call me “Aoi.” I was born and raised in Tokushima, and I’m excited to share the charm of this beautiful region. Centered around Tokushima City, I’ll introduce you to its history, culture, nature, and cuisine. When people think of Tokushima, they often think of the Awa Odori. Held every August, it is one of Japan’s largest dance festivals, with a history of over 400 years. With the famous chant, “The dancers are fools, and the watchers are fools. Both are fools alike, so why not dance?”, the whole city comes alive with energy. You can also see some of the world’s largest whirlpools in the Naruto Strait. From the walkway on the Great Naruto Bridge, you can enjoy spectacular views and experience the power of nature up close. Tokushima is also famous for indigo dyeing. During the Edo period, Awa Indigo spread across Japan and supported the region’s growth. In an indigo dyeing workshop, you can create your own unique item while experiencing traditional Japanese culture. For nature lovers, hiking on Mt. Bizan or Mt. Tsurugi is highly recommended. Mt. Bizan offers panoramic views of Tokushima City and the sea, while Mt. Tsurugi showcases Shikoku’s magnificent mountain scenery. Each season brings a different landscape to enjoy. If you visit Tokushima, I would be delighted to guide you. You can enjoy Tokushima’s nature, history, and food culture, including fresh seafood, Awa-O-Dori chicken, Tokushima ramen, and dishes made with sudachi citrus. The night view from Mt. Bizan is also one of Tokushima’s most iconic sights, loved by both visitors and locals. I look forward to sharing the charm of Tokushima with you.

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 !!
