Japan

Lee S.

Welcome to Hokuriku! I’m based in Kanazawa and would love to show you around not just the famous sights, but also the everyday beauty and hidden corners that make this region special. I also provide winter tours and have a logistics team for your expedient comfort needs and convenience. Whether you're strolling through samurai districts, sampling fresh seafood at a local market, or soaking in the peaceful atmosphere of mountain villages like Takayama, Shirakawa-go or Ainokura among many more, I’ll help you experience Japan in a way that feels personal, relaxed, and real. I grew up in BC Canada with friends from all over the world, and now call Japan home. I speak conversational Japanese and understand both the traveler’s curiosity and the local rhythm of life. That means I can help bridge the gap, so you feel comfortable and connected wherever we go. Every tour is flexible—if the weather shifts or something catches your eye, we can adapt. My goal is to make your time here smooth, engaging, and full of insight. Let’s explore Hokuriku together, one story, flavor, and moment at a time.

Malta

Martin F.

I’m Martin, a fully licensed Maltese tour guide with a lifelong passion for tourism. Over the years, I’ve worked across every facet of the industry—from hotel management to overseeing operations for a leading tourism management company. I have hosted tour operators, travel agents, and key decision-makers visiting Malta for the first time. My role was to showcase the island's potential and convince them to include Malta as one of their main destinations. I didn’t just plan itineraries—I crafted unforgettable experiences. From cultural and historical highlights to seaside charm, vibrant nightlife, and hidden village gems, I ensured every guest experienced Malta at its most vivid and welcoming. My career also took me beyond Malta. I’ve managed tourism operations in destinations such as the Azores, Sicily, Dubai, Oman, and the Canary Islands—broadening my perspective and deepening my expertise in destination management. As a guide, I bring more than just facts. I bring context. I know Malta’s history and its role within the broader story of European events. I know the island’s rhythms, its culture and traditions, and where to find the best cafés, restaurants, and tucked-away treasures. Whether it’s arranging access to the top of a church belfry, exploring closed-off sections of Valletta’s fortifications, or enjoying the peaceful pace of an off-the-map village, I can create experiences that go far beyond the ordinary.

Japan

Mark T.

I am fascinated by the rich history and culture of the city of Nagasaki and the surrounding area and I take great pleasure in introducing people to what is one of the most unique locations in the world. It is a place of dreams, ambitions, tragedies, resilience and physical beauty. As a resident of Nagasaki for over 40 years and a professor at a university, I have had decades of experience guiding foreign guests around the city and other locations near the city. I have also guided my Japanese students on cultural trips to the U.S., Canada and the U.K. around 20 times. In addition, I have decades of experience conducting courses and lectures on Nagasaki history, Japanese society, Japanese history and contemporary Japanese literature. Although I greatly enjoy encouraging learning and experiences on others, I also thrive on continuing to learn more and every tour is a rewarding experience for me as well.

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.

Portugal

Alexandra V.

We are mindful of the changes the tourism boom has brought to Lisbon in recent years, which is why we support the art of hospitality without neglecting our genuine Lisboan identity and this is what we will share with you. We like detours and how they keep surprising us. We might stop for 20 minutes to see the sunset or take a walk and go have a ginginha at that special place. We don’t want your trip to Lisbon to taste like a frozen meal. What we serve here is homemade and freshly prepared.
