Ken Y.

Hello. I‘m Ken. I’m a certified guide for the city of Kyoto. I live just in between Kyoto and Osaka. My hobbies are tennis, swimming, and windsurfing in the summer. Kyoto is a city with over 1,000 years of history and so many attractions that it‘s difficult to see everything in one day. My tour includes highlights of Kyoto's popular spots making the most of your time. However, all of these can be customized based on your requests. I'll suggest spots to see based on your preferences, such as quiet areas away from the crowds. I'd love to work with you to create a plan that will be wonderful memories. I look forward to seeing you!

Catalina N.

Catalina here! Local TourGuide of Valparaíso and Viña del Mar :) I came to Valparaíso 7 years ago and I fell in love with this place. I just love the intricate stairs, the hidden corners and colorful alleys.. its endless magic, its art community, its legacy and its resilience; the culture, the people, the port. Viña del Mar, our twin City: close sisters with very different souls. Viña is a beautiful Garden City, with nice beaches and restaurants, a lovely boardcoast, parks and nature, shops and old treasures around. Now I walk all over both cities sharing them with the world, and hoping you have a nice time and get to connect with this uniques cities in Latinoamerica. The tours I offer are flexible in many ways and they can be tailored to your needs or interests. So If you have questions or doubts just ask and share your ideas or worries. A little about myself! I studied Ecotourism. I love to walk, love nature, animals, and nice adventures. I also love hot chocolate, interesting conversations and creating things with my hands. I hope we can meet!

Laura R.

My name is Laura and I am a passionate official tour guide and I try to show visitors the essence of my place, the unique and memorable places. I've been working full time as a tour guide for over 8 years and I hope I can continue for many more. I am also a sworn translator and interpreter by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and I have been travelling around the world to meet new people, to learn about new cultures and to be sure I can speak English in a bilingual way. Toledo holds a special place in my heart, it is my hometown. This is the place that made me who I am today and made me feel what I feel today when I go to work, when I walk around its narrow streets (where I used to play), around the Jewish quarter (where my grandma used to live and the place she had to be hidden in the Civil War), around the convent area (that quiet and fascinating area that surprises me every single day), when I cross the two stunning bridges we have and when I realize that to go to work is a pleasure. There is an indescribable charm about this town. That is why I am a proud official local guide of the beautiful City of the Three Cultures. This is the reason why I love to show visitors the important legacy we have in form of churches, synagogues and mosques. Let me show you the charm of Toledo. I am a very open minded person and I adapt and customize the tour to your specific needs and to anything you may be interested in. It will be a pleasure. Warm regards from the beautiful Toledo.

Brazil

Flavio T.

Welcome to Rio de Janeiro! Come fall in love with this marvelous city just like I did since I was a kid!! My name is Flavio, and I was born and raised in Rio de Janeiro. I am a Gastronomy Graduate and since 2002, I have worked in restaurants and hotels around the world (USA, France, Spain, Curaçao), always welcoming, serving, and in contact with people from all over the world. I am passionate about learning and knowing about stories, traditions, cultures, and obviously gastronomy, which makes me want to share everything that is best about our city. In addition to the usual touristic attractions, we can arrange personalized tours to places not all tourists know or think of going to, breaking taboos and showing various facets of the city. The tours are done with my own car, safe and comfortable. Let me surprise you what Rio has to offer you!!

Japan

Tatsuhiro N.

It took me some 20 years to be qualified for this job and I feel honored for being able to help tourists from abroad understand our nation and culture. Japan is a beautiful country with a long history, tradition and rich cultural heritages, having various features in each of the four distinct seasons. Although there are now many visitors from abroad, mainly from Asian countries, they are mostly interested in shopping taking advantage of cheaper yen rather than understanding our people and culture. Kyoto and Nara are the two cities best known by foreign tourists, but not all the aspects of Japanese culture are concentrated there. If you visit the countryside other than these two cities, you will never fail to see the beautiful natural surroundings and people who will warmly welcome you. I wish to work as the bridge between Japanese people and tourists from all over the world.

I spent my formative years between Japan and the U.S. giving me a naturally bicultural outlook and global sensibility. I am a hospitality professional with over 35 years of experience in Japan’s international hotel and tourism industries having held senior positions with world-renowned hotels. I've welcomed distinguished guests - from artists and actors and political leaders and celebrity chefs. I have also worked as a simultaneous interpreter for major Japanese organizations supporting large scale cultural and international events. I relocated from Tokyo to Naha in 2003 because I totally fell in love with this beautiful port city during my travels - the warm friendly people, delicious local food, rich history and culture and most of all the breathtaking turquoise ocean and magnificent blue sky. My passion is making people happy through "omotenashi" - the Japanese art of polite, thoughtful and respectful hospitality.

Akin A.

Passionate about exploring the world through the eyes of those who live, interact, and truly experience the essence of the city. A nomadic traveler since the age of 17, he seeks to see each destination as a local, believing that only this way can one truly capture the inner and outer beauty of a place. His goal is to understand the soul of the environment and fully immerse himself in the authenticity and cultural richness of each experience. My goal is not just to be your guide, but a friend who shares with you the charm and beauty of the places we explore together.

Italy

Tullia G.

My name is Tullia, I was born in Veneto and my roots are firmly planted here. I love the territory where I live, from the Venice Lagoon to the cities of art, from medieval villages to the peaks of the Dolomites. In Venice, different cultures from the Mediterranean basin, Asian lands, and far-off lands of the East come together. And like Venice, which has traveled for more than a millennia, discovering different worlds, so am I: I love meeting people from different cultures and backgrounds, and I love traveling… walking at a slow pace. This is why from my philosophy of life, I have created a profession, with the goal of allowing my guests to embrace all the atmospheres, art, architecture, history, culture, and cuisine of the Veneto territory.

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.

From a young age, I was passionate about becoming a tour guide, inspired by the senior guides in my area. With a strong desire to pursue my dreams, I worked diligently to earn my professional tour guiding license after moving to the capital, Addis Ababa, due to the lack of educational opportunities in my hometown. 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.
