Australia

Brendan H.

I'm Brendan, an sydneysider who creates comfortable, personalised, and memorable tour experiences across Sydney and regional New South Wales.

Costa Rica

Edgardo U.

I’m a Costa Rica-based travel operations professional, trip leader and guide with more than 10 years of experience in tourism and extensive hands-on experience across Costa Rica and Central America. Since 2012, I’ve worked with international travelers and travel companies, leading and supporting small-group adventure and experiential trips. I have operated 200+ trips in Costa Rica, developing deep destination knowledge across accommodations, transportation, activities, restaurants, local suppliers and travel logistics. My experience goes beyond guiding. I’m comfortable coordinating the operational side of a trip — managing itineraries, working with local suppliers, organizing activities and transportation, communicating with guests, adapting plans and solving problems on the ground. I also have a background in Sustainable Tourism Management.

Nicaragua

Juan U.

I'm Juan — a National Nature, History, and Cultural Heritage Guide in Nicaragua. I came to this through curiosity, not convention. Trained as a mechanical engineer, I spent years crossing the United States before retiring early from the Pipe Trades Union in Las Vegas. When I came home after twenty-six years away, tourism found me. I've guided travelers here since 2009, and it's the work I'm proudest of. Every traveler wants something different: a birder after one elusive quetzal, a history lover tracing centuries of colonial stone, someone who just wants to feel a live volcano breathe. Seventeen years on the road taught me a good guide doesn't build one tour — they build as many as there are travelers. Before we plan a stop, I ask: what moves you? My specializations: Bird Watching — resident species and seasonal migrations Ecotourism and Nature — reserves, cloud forests, volcanic landscapes Hiking and Trekking — from Cerro Negro's black sands near León to the highlands of Jinotega and Matagalpa History and Cultural Heritage — colonial Granada and León, and the artisan towns of Masaya Gastronomy and Coffee — Nicaraguan cuisine and northern coffee country I bring genuine adventure, a good sense of humor, and a positive outlook travelers notice fast. This isn't a fixed itinerary with my name on it — it's your trip, shaped around what moves you. We guide you. You choose. Nicaragua isn't one landscape; it's a dozen, folded into one country. Twin volcanoes rise from a freshwater lake, cradling Ometepe Island. Granada and León have kept their colonial streets for five centuries. Cloud forest cools Matagalpa and Jinotega, where coffee grows beside Estelí's tobacco, and rainforest presses toward the Río San Juan. Pacific surf meets sunsets at San Juan del Sur; turquoise water hushes over Corn Island and Little Corn. One country, many reasons to fall for it. Come discover it all with someone who calls it home.

Japan

Hiroaki

I was born and bred in Tokyo, so I have some native knowledge there. I worked for trading house for more than 30 years. During this time I was fortunate enough to have chances to contact things & people abroad, while I came to know Japan is very rich in beautiful things including traditional culture, food, area and site due to domestic trips on business. Taking both experiences both of domestic and abroad I thought I could contribute a little bit to mutual understanding and introduction of Japanese things to people from abroad. After retirement I decided to introduce beauty and charm of Japan. Through guiding I've come to know the questions that people from abroad are likely to feel curious about Japan. My basic ideas to attend guests are, either first visitors or repeaters, I would like to explain the points you want to know steadily for sure in all field including traditional cultures, things about present Japan, and pop cultures. Having cheerful and bright nature, I think I can show you around not only must-see spots but also the off-the-beaten path as you like, to make tour something new and enjoyable. Looking forwards to meeting you soon !

As your authentic and unique gateway to the uninterrupted daily life of my people, I aim to offer tailor-made, responsible, and genuine travel experiences for both individuals and groups.

I graduated from Lion Ethiopia Tourism and Hotel College, earning my tour guide certification on April 12, 2020, and my Tour Operation Supervision certification on August 6, 2021. Since then, I have been fortunate to work as a tour guide, exploring the magical destinations throughout Ethiopia.

I genuinely look forward to hosting you on your Ethiopian journey and promise to do my utmost to ensure a remarkable experience.

Turkey

Uğur K.

Hello, I am Uğur. After graduating from the Faculty of Economics at the university, I started working in tourism. Then one day I realized that guidance would make me more enjoy and self-actualization. Because I was hungry for history, I was hungry for knowledge, my curiosity was high. I developed myself in this field and became a tour guide professionally by taking the official trainings we need to take. Here I was in the field that I was looking for and made me happy. When I first started working in the field, I was very excited, I made simple mistakes out of excitement, but they all tasted good, maybe it is these pleasant mistakes that still give the local flavor to the tours I do. Even though I travel and tell the same places with different people from all over the world, the feeling of traveling to the same places with different friends or different places with the same friends never goes away. Sharing my knowledge and empathizing with people makes me feel happy. I have friends from all over the world and this is the best part of this job. I love my job, I love history, I love people... Recently, I have been working as a mediator in order to make social use of the experience I have gained in this field and try to make a positive impact on the society I live in.

Vietnam

Cam P.

Welcome to Da Nang & Hoi An! Xin Chao (hello) ! My name is Cam, and I was born and raised between Da Nang and Hoi An, Vietnam. This is my home, and I love sharing the culture, stories, food, and everyday life of Central Vietnam with travelers from around the world. I’ve always been fascinated by culture and by the stories people share across different cultures. For me, being a guide is not only about showing you famous places or telling you historical facts. It’s also about having a good conversation, sharing stories, laughing together, and enjoying the moment. If you’re looking for famous landmarks, I’d be happy to show you them. But if you want to go a little further — discover hidden gems, local spots, or taste dishes that many visitors may never find on their own — that’s where I can really help. I want you to experience Da Nang and Hoi An not just as a visitor, but through the eyes of someone who calls this place home. Come with me, and let’s explore, eat, talk, laugh, and create some memories together. I hope that when you leave Central Vietnam, you’ll take home not only some great photos, but also a few stories you’ll never forget.
