Scarlett H.

Hi there! I’m Scarlett, a licensed English-speaking guide based in Hangzhou and covering the gorgeous Shanghai-Jiangsu-Zhejiang region. My friends often call me a bit of a story-collector. Having graduated from Cambridge with a degree in sociology, I love going beyond the standard postcard views to help you understand the real, living pulse of China (e.g. local stories, hidden details, and quirky histories most tourists walk right past). Everything I do is entirely customized around your vibe. Whether you’re dreaming of a zen day sipping tea in mist-shrouded valleys, hunting down the best under-the-radar street eats, or chasing futuristic, cyberpunk cityscapes for that perfect shot, we can design it from scratch. We can easily explore on foot, but if you want to travel in total comfort and style, I also offer car tours with my own very cozy private wheels, perfect for escaping the summer heat or zipping between hidden spots. Oh, and you can leave the camera duty to me! I have a real passion for photography and a sharp eye for lighting and angles, so I’ll make sure you go home with a camera roll full of stunning memories. Whether you're here for a quick weekend or a deep-dive adventure, just drop me a message and let's craft your perfect trip!

Raphaël P.

Kanazawa-based private guide offering deeply curated, seamless experiences across the region. I have been living in Kanazawa since 2019 with my Japanese wife and our children, and over time have developed a deep understanding of the region: its history, craftsmanship, and everyday life. This is not simply where I guide, but where I live and build my life. Over the past couple of years, I have led more than 500 private tours across Kanazawa, Shirakawa-go, Takayama, Kaga, and beyond, working with international guests in English, French, and Spanish. My background spans over 20 years in the international service industry, including hospitality, consulting for Michelin-level restaurants and traditional ryokan, and the performing arts. This experience naturally shapes the way I guide, combining structure, adaptability, and attention to detail, while keeping each day engaging and personal. Each experience is carefully adapted to the people in front of me. Whether that means exploring major highlights, discovering quieter places, or adjusting the pace to create a smooth and memorable day. If this approach resonates with you, I would be very happy to guide you. Kind regards, Raphaël

Kamakura is a historical small city with nice beaches and hills and lots of hidden spots of beauty. Almost every time I go out, I feel I’m still making new discoveries. That’s why I cannot stop exploring. I would take you to some neighboring areas like Hakone, Yokohama, Nikko, and Mt.

Later in my life, I have lived in Oita, Kyushu(far south west of Tokyo) for nearly 10 years and traveled a lot in Kyushu. I love traveling Tohoku, the northern Japan area, too. I’ve planned and enjoyed visiting many of those local areas in the north, too. So, I could share those experiences with you even while having tours in Tokyo or online. 【Personality and others】 - I love meeting people, listening and talking to them. - I'm friendly and caring, I hope:) - I love nature and enjoy hiking and skiing. - I love seasonal flowers and good local food. - You will see a lot about Japanese culture, nature, and lifestyle with me.
