Naoto O.
Hello, my name is Naoto, a local guide based in Mie, Japan. I am a National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter (2026), offering private tours that go beyond typical sightseeing. My goal is to help you experience Japan, not just visit it. Before becoming a licensed guide, I completed an official tourism training program organized by the Mie Prefectural Government (2025). Through this program, I developed a strong foundation in Japanese history and culture, as well as practical skills in guiding and tour planning. ■Background and Language Skills I studied in Kyoto and also lived in Canada and New Zealand. I hold EIKEN Grade 1 and a TOEIC score of 925. My academic background is in law and international relations, so I am comfortable discussing both Japanese culture and global topics. ■Specialized Areas: Hidden Japan Experiences I specialize in guiding visitors to less-crowded, culturally rich destinations such as the Iga region, the birthplace of ninja, and the quiet historical areas of eastern Nara Prefecture. These locations offer a deeper and more authentic understanding of Japan. I can also guide you to Ise Grand Shrine, one of the most sacred and important sites in Japan. ■Comfortable Private Tours Since public transportation is limited in these rural areas, tours are conducted by private car to ensure a smooth and comfortable experience. ■Local Food Experience If you are interested, I can introduce you to local restaurants where you can enjoy fresh, organic vegetables from this region. I look forward to creating a personalized and memorable experience for you. Feel free to message me anytime to customize your tour.

Ondrej R.
Dear Travellers! My name is Ondrej and I have been living in Kyoto for six years. I’m currently conducting tours in English and Czech languages. My hometown is Prague, Czech Republic, but I have left it behind years ago to live in Japan forever. In my young years, I did a wide portfolio of various sports including soccer, futsal, skateboarding, cycling, boxing and athletics (both competition/ hobby level), so I can say that I am a sportsman. However, I reached my biggest successes at chessboard - playing the highest youth chess league of my country and finally attaining a chess coach licence. At the academic level, I studied Human Sciences combined with Natural Sciences at University. My primary goal is to satisfy your needs in a new city as for what you’d like to see. Based on a given venue, I focus on incorporating its meaning into a complete/ bigger picture of the whole culture and historical system. If you’re not sure, I’m always happy to build a convenient tour plan involving appropriate amount of walking and transfers. I have been raising my children in Kyoto for six years and realizing that traveling with children may sometimes be a challenge, I invite tours with children as well. I have experience working with and guiding people from all over the world. Kyoto is a precious Japanese artifact and it is filled with unique places and cultural values and heritages. Osaka offers a wide array of cultural meanings and cuisine delicacies, as well as hidden corners and pleasurable views. I also love to take my clients to cities of Nara and Uji as they are so important for understanding the core of Japanese soul. Please contact me to book, customize or just inquire regarding tours. Once you are ready, we can discuss which of yours or mines favorite places we visit. Until then, have a good day and travel safe wherever you go.

Kanae W.
Do you know Chiba? It’s right next to Tokyo. You might know it as the place where Narita International Airport is located… but actually, it’s way more than that. Chiba has beautiful, historic cities that are fun to walk around. It is also known as a peaceful suburban area where many people spend weekends. I really know how to enjoy them. I'm proud to be a government-licensed tour guide and local with a great passion for sharing the wonders of the cities of Japan. As I have spent more than 25 years of my life in the Chiba and Tokyo area, I'm quite familiar with many of the attractions the area has to offer. It never stops surprising people, including me, a long-time local, with its blend of traditional and modern elements. I hope you will feel that excitement as well. Moreover, with a great deal of knowledge about Japan and a good sense of humor, our journey should be full of interesting and enjoyable stories and conversations. As a working mother of a little boy, for example, I am quite familiar with current situations and traditional events related to families in Japan today. Please let me know if you are curious about anything during your trip. I would be happy to help. I am very happy and excited to meet you soon. Thank you. Arigatou gozaimasu!
