William kim W.

Hi! My name is Kim and I've been a hiking and tour guide in southwestern Utah for over 30 years. My specialties are Zion National Park and Bryce Canyon National Park, two of the most beautiful places on Earth! I love to share my knowledge of the history, geology, flora and fauna of these areas with others. I have led groups as small as one, and as large as 50 (as a step-on guide). I know the best places to go, the easiest logistics, the most challenging/rewarding/easiest/interesting trails and viewpoints in the area. I would love to guide you and your group throughout our wonderful system of National Parks!

Miaomiao W.

I majored in Japanese tour guiding at university, and work as a professional tour guide-fluent in English, Japanese, and Cantonese. Since graduating in 2004, I have worked as an English and Japanese tour guide in Guilin, Shenzhen, Shanghai, and the East China region for 10 years. I also led tours to Thailand during that time. Later, I switched to translation work, mainly helping foreign companies and individuals who came to China to source clothing, jewelry, electronics, and glasses. These jobs gave me a lot of experience across different industries. Now I work as both a Pilates instructor and a tour guide. I love exercising—it keeps me full of energy every day. As a tour guide, I really enjoy interacting with foreign friends: showing them beautiful sights, trying delicious food, and sharing China's culture and history. Thanks to my diverse work experience, I can also chat about the changes in China over the years—whether it's the economy, industries, people's lives, or their ways of thinking. I just love this feeling of connecting with people and sharing things with each other. Exchanging fresh stories with friends from different countries is always interesting and brings a great sense of novelty.

Gary S.

As an inbound tour guide and outbound tour leader, I have had the honor of serving guests from over 56 countries. I specialize in both private tours and bus higaeri (one-day) tours for Japanese local tourism services. I am also proud to be a 5-star-reviewed tour guide on other platforms. I speak Japanese, English, Mandarin, and Cantonese—skills I developed during my long-term career as a project manager in international joint ventures requiring multilingual and cross-cultural communication. This enables me to interact smoothly with tourists from regions such as Taiwan, Hong Kong (SAR), and mainland China, as long as we share a common language like English. In addition, I’m currently studying French, Spanish, Italian, and German to deepen my understanding of diverse cultures and enhance the experience I provide. I believe in the importance of omoiyari—the Japanese concept of empathy and consideration—an essential trait cultivated through personal growth, social experience, and professional challenges. I always strive to stand in my guests' shoes and provide thoughtful, personalized service. I also bring a sense of humor and optimism to my work, guided by a strong belief in the power of trust, shaped by my interest in Buddhism, Shintoism, and Protestant Christianity. In August 2024, I joined my first Heiro tour led by Japanese trainers, a couple who became certified Heiro masters after completing the practice 11 times. This experience enriched both my spiritual perspective and cultural understanding.

Hello! My name is Koichi, a licensed guide in Niigata City. I am a retired bank manager. I had worked in the New York office for three years. During my stay in the U.S., I traveled a lot with my family and enjoyed the great nature, historical sites and nice local cuisines. This time, I want you to enjoy Japanese culture and cuisines including our wonderful rice and sake. It is my great pleasure to welcome you in my hometown! Niigata has been developed as a port city at the mouth of big river. The Niigata port has been active since the 17th century, the samurai era. So, we have a lot of sightseeing sites which represent the flourishment of the town in those days. You can enjoy a wealthy merchant’s house and garden, a landlord’s mansion or a model of wooden boat which sailed all over Japan at that time. Along with those historical sites, the people’s markets are very enjoyable. Farmers and fishermen sell their fresh products at the portable tents along the street. Please stroll the area and find some very local fish and veggies. I am waiting for your visit to Niigata!

Michele S.

My name is Michele, I’m 33 years old, and I’m originally from Italy. I’ve been living in Kyoto, Japan, since 2019. My journey began when I left Italy at the age of 22, seeking adventure and new experiences. I spent five incredible years living in Oceania, where I immersed myself in different cultures and explored breathtaking landscapes. During this time, I also traveled extensively across Asia, discovering its rich diversity and deepening my passion for exploring new places. In 2019, my wife Shizuka and I decided to settle in Kyoto to start a family. We chose Kyoto because of its unique blend of history, culture, and natural beauty, which has captivated us ever since. Over the years, we’ve traveled all over Japan, uncovering both its hidden gems and its iconic destinations. I’m an outdoor enthusiast who loves hiking and cycling. Whether it’s climbing mountain trails, exploring serene temples, or biking through picturesque countryside, I find joy in experiencing Japan’s beauty firsthand. My passion for the outdoors has also allowed me to discover many lesser-known spots that offer an authentic glimpse into the charm of Kyoto and beyond. As your guide, I’d love to share my knowledge and love for Kyoto with you. Whether it’s visiting famous landmarks or exploring hidden treasures off the beaten path, I’m here to make your journey memorable, personalized, and full of unique experiences.
