Fumiko I.

Hello! I'm Fumiko, a licensed national tourist guide. I love Japanese culture such as Japanese way of arranging flowers, calligraphy, origami or folding paper, and wearing yukata. If you would like to experience these kinds of things Japanese, I can arrange for you. I'm good on Japanese history, too. I'd like to show you around Tokyo and other places with their historical backgrouds, if you like. As I had worked for a travel agency for a long time, I can help you travel smoothly and I'd like to meet your request as much as possible. I often guide Asakusa, Ueno, East Garden of Imperial Palace, Tsukiji, Ryogoku, Yanesen, Meiji Jingu , Harajuku and so on.

Shogo K.

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!:)

Japan

Kei H.

Hello! I’m Keita — call me Kei — a licensed local guide based in Oita, in the heart of Kyushu. I specialize in my home region, from well-loved destinations like Beppu and Yufuin to the quiet, authentic places that most visitors never find: rural pottery villages, family farms, hidden hot springs, and the backroads of the countryside where I grew up. Guiding isn’t a side pursuit for me — it’s my profession. As a National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter, I’ve spent years designing and leading private tours across Kyushu, and I work alongside a small team of local guides who share the same care. That means when you travel with me, you’re getting someone who plans every detail personally and knows the region inside out. I tailor each day entirely around you. Whether you’re a food lover chasing the real local flavors, a history enthusiast, or someone who simply wants to slow down in nature, I’ll shape an itinerary that fits — and I’ll handle the logistics so you can relax and enjoy it. I guide in fluent English, and I love the conversations that happen along the way. Let’s go beyond the usual route and discover the Kyushu that locals treasure. I’d be glad to welcome you.

Japan

Yukihiro N.

Hello, everyone!! My name is Yukihiro, call me "HERO". I'm eager to introduce this unique country, Japan to foreign guests. I am not a professional interpreter. I have retired from Japan Ground Self-Defense Force(JGSDF=Japanese Army) on March 2018. I have spent most of my career as a Army NCO(Non-commissioned officer) . My job experiences are only in the military, but there are variety of specialties, so I didn't feel boredom. I lived in many places all over Japan, such as Hokkaido for 10 years, Chiba for 15 years, Okinawa for 17 years, and more places. I am working for the half of month as a tour-conductor in Okinawa Japan. Rest of month, I live in Nagasaki Prefecture, and work as a GoWithGuide interpreter tour guide. I am registered as a Okinawa prefectural interpreter tour guide, but don't have a whole Japan area certification. So I am brushing my skill up to get it. I speak English, and do basic Chinese conversation , not like a native though.

Egypt

Emil F.

Hello! I'm your guide for this incredible Egyptian adventure, and let me tell you, Egypt runs through my veins. I was born and raised in Luxor, a city cradled by ancient temples, I've been surrounded by monuments and travelers since childhood. This sparked a lifelong fascination with Egyptology, and I knew I wanted to share this passion with others. My journey to becoming your guide wasn't just about memorizing facts. I honed my language skills – English, French, and even German – to bridge the gap between cultures. I then worked with leading tour companies, but I dreamed of a better experience for visitors. So, I delved into the world of business, studying economics and accounting. Why? Because a smooth trip is essential! I was inspired by global tourism models, I even traveled to Canada to learn about exceptional customer service and food hygiene. Egypt from the Inside Out: Imagine a journey that encompasses the heart of Nubia to the cool Mediterranean breeze – that's what I strive for. My experience guiding people from all walks of life ensures a truly inclusive experience. Your Personalized Egyptian Experience: Whether you seek the iconic Pyramids or hidden gems like the Hanging Church, I'm your expert guide. My carefully curated tours nourish the mind and soul, delving deep into Egypt's rich history and archaeology. More Than Just Sightseeing: I believe in responsible tourism. My programs encourage interaction, learning, and a connection with nature. At least one eco-tourism stop is always included! Your Comfort and Safety are My priorities. From avoiding hassles to ensuring a safe and respectful environment, I'm here to make your trip seamless. Your preferences are top priority, and open communication is key. There are no hidden costs or sales pressure—just a genuine desire to share the magic of Egypt with you. Let's explore Egypt together!

Japan

Toru K.

Hello everyone! I'm Toru, a nationally licensed tour guide. I mainly guide individual travelers and small groups around Tokyo, Kamakura, and Hakone. I live in a town near Narita International Airport. People often say that one of the unique traits of Japanese culture is paying close attention to detail while trying not to show it. In other words, there are many unspoken stories hidden behind what you see in Japan. I always try to interpret those stories and help my guests discover the secrets of Japanese culture. I offer three tour plans — Tokyo, Kamakura, and Hakone — which I believe are perfect for first-time visitors to Japan. Each one includes the must-see highlights of the area. I'm really looking forward to meeting you in Japan!

Dan C.

Hi I’m a friendly Australian living in Japan for 20 years. I work as a Kindergarten teacher here so I design my tours to be very Family Friendly: stress free for the parents and exciting for the kids. I particularly love to make little packs filled with goodies for the kids so they can experience what Japanese kids do. I want my guests to experience a real Japan and I love teaching Japanese to the little ones. * Children with special needs and/or mobility issues are especially welcomed. I can make accommodations and plan a tour based on their unique needs.

Egypt

Nehal N.

I am an Egyptologist, heritage professional, and licensed freelance tour guide with over 15 years of experience in the field of Egyptian tourism and cultural heritage. I hold a Master’s degree in Heritage Conservation and Site Management from Brandenburg University of Technology in Cottbus-Senftenberg, Germany. My academic background, combined with a lifelong passion for Egyptian history, has shaped my career and deepened my dedication to sharing Egypt’s rich cultural legacy with the world. Born and raised in Giza, just a stone’s throw from the Giza Plateau, I’ve been immersed in the world of ancient history from an early age. Growing up within sight of the pyramids, along with being part of a family that includes many Egyptologists, inspired me to become one of Egypt’s tourism ambassadors. Throughout my studies and professional career, I’ve had the opportunity to travel extensively—both within Egypt and internationally. I’ve explored numerous cities abroad including Berlin, Dresden, Potsdam, Munich, Hamburg, Milan, Venice, Paris, Amsterdam, Barcelona, Brussels, Prague, and Vienna. I’ve also visited Saudi Arabia, Istanbul, Sapanca, and Bursa in Turkey. In Egypt, I’ve traveled across every governorate and region, gaining deep knowledge of the country’s diverse cultural, historical, and natural landscapes. It would be my pleasure to guide you through an unforgettable journey during your visit to Egypt—bringing its ancient wonders and vibrant culture to life through authentic storytelling and professional insight.

Juliana G.

The Best Way to Feel Barcelona. With 19 years of experience as a professional tour guide and a lifelong passion for exploring the world, I’ve learned that the most memorable journeys are never about simply seeing a destination—they’re about truly feeling it. Originally from Colombia, I began my career as a tour guide in Paris, where I also trained new guides for an international tourism company. I hold a Master’s degree in French Literature from La Sorbonne University and a degree in Languages and Socio-Cultural Studies. Years later, I followed my heart to Barcelona, the city I now proudly call home. Today, I specialize in creating thoughtfully curated private experiences tailored to each traveler. As a passionate traveler myself, I understand what discerning travelers truly value: authenticity, flexibility, meaningful connections, and experiences that feel personal rather than scripted. Whether you’re passionate about history, architecture, gastronomy, art, or simply want to experience Barcelona beyond the typical tourist attractions, every itinerary is designed around your interests, pace, and travel style. My goal is simple: I don’t want you to feel like you’re following a tour guide. I want you to feel like you’re spending the day with a knowledgeable local friend who is genuinely excited to share the city’s hidden corners, fascinating stories, favorite restaurants, and authentic culture. I believe the greatest luxury is having an experience designed exclusively for you. That’s why every tour is completely personalized, allowing you to discover Barcelona at your own pace while creating unforgettable memories that will stay with you long after your journey ends. By the end of our time together, I hope you won’t just have seen Barcelona—I hope you’ll have truly felt it.

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 !!

Miki J.

My name is Miki, and I was born and raised in Kyoto. The streets, temples, shrines, gardens, arts and crafts, and traditions here have been part of my life since childhood, and sharing them with visitors is something I truly love. My father designs traditional Sukiya-style architecture, Japanese gardens, and tea rooms, and is also a passionate collector of antiques from Japan and Korea. Through his work, I developed a deep appreciation for the craftsmanship and beauty found throughout Japanese culture. My mother is a professional cook, and I grew up watching my parents warmly welcome guests into our home, preparing matcha and meals while creating a comfortable and inviting atmosphere. From them, I learned the spirit of Japanese hospitality Omotenashi. I began learning English at an international school in elementary school, which allowed me to communicate with people from many different countries from a young age. Over time, I realized how much I enjoy helping people discover the deeper meaning behind the places we visit. Kyoto is a city where every temple, shrine, garden, and small street has a story. While many visitors are drawn to its beauty, understanding the history and traditions behind these places makes the experience even more meaningful. I love sharing these stories and introducing hidden local spots that many visitors might otherwise miss. My goal is to help you experience Kyoto with all five senses and enjoy the culture and traditions that make this city so special. Whether it is your first time visiting Japan or you are returning to Kyoto, I would be truly honored to share this beautiful city with you. If I can help create even a small, special moment in Kyoto that becomes a lasting memory for you, it would be my greatest happiness.

Mexico

Jeroen A.

My name is Jeronimo (Jeroen). I'm Mexican and European. I studied economics with a specialization in International Management at Maastricht University, The Netherlands. I have always been fascinated by Latin America. After my studies I worked as a consultant, entrepreneur and commercial director in Belgium, Brazil, The Netherlands, Guatemala, and Argentina. I have been active in humanitarian aid in Third World countries worldwide. I have travelled extensively to Africa, Eastern Europe and Latin America. I have worked as a tour conductor in France, Brazil, Argentina, Chile, Uruguay, Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, Belize and Indonesia. Mexico is where I decided to stay twenty years ago. I started off with groups of 20 people with trips of 28 days from Mexico, Guatemala, Honduras, Belize and back to Mexico. After this I switched to trips of 21 days visiting the same countries. After having visited each archaeological site over 60 times, each time with another local guide, I decided to study Mexican History and Archaeology, inspired by some of the local guides who told the tourists that the Mayas landed from Mars in spaceships. I am specialized in Maya culture. Working with people and showing them different cultures is what fascinates me. In 2004, I started off with the big tour companies like TUI and Thomas Cook, who commercialized the trips from 28 days and reduced it to 12 days. I did that for 10 years, after which I went on as a private tour guide/driver for small groups. I offer private day tours and multi day tours to all archaeological sites and nature parks transportation included in English, French, German, Dutch, and Spanish.

Japan

Tadashi M.

Hello! My name is Tadashi. I was born and raised in Fukuoka and I've lived here all my life. I used to work for a local bank where I was mainly involved in export, import, and foreign exchange, etc. Afterwards I joined a university where I taught international economics and foreign trade for five years. I'm happy to arrange your tour plans according to your requests and help you to write your own unique story with me. If you're coming to Fukuoka for the first time, I recommend Tochoji Temple, Kushida Shrine and Fukuoka Castle Ruins where you can get feel for Japanese culture and history. Thirty minutes away from the center by train is Dazaifu. There you can enjoy a very famous shrine, Dazaifu Tenmangu, known as the home of " the god of literature or calligraphy." and Kyushu National Museum. Fukuoka is also a mecca for shopping and food. If you're coming to Fukuoka again, I recommend that you try local food, for example, Hakata Ramen-noodles in pork broth and locally caught fish. I can also take you to a traditional Japanese shopping arcade, Kawabata Shotengai. If you would like to get out of the city, we could go to Yanagawa, a town of canals, which is a one hour ride from the city center. You can try boat tours enjoying the leisurely view of the historic buildings and try Steamed Eel. Fukuoka travel tip: if you arrive in Fukuoka by JR, make sure to get off at "Hakata Station." Sorry, there's no "Fukuoka Station." on JR lines. Hakata is an old name for Fukuoka and your destination. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
