About Tour Guide Mitsuru H.
Konnichiwa, welcome to JAPAN!! My name is MITSURU and I am a tour guide for foreign visitors, especially in Kanto region (Hakone / Mt. Fuji view, Kawaguchiko) and Central Japan (Nakasendo trail, Kamikochi hiking) Okinawa, Hokkaido.
Japan is a long country and has so many beautiful places to be visited! There are 47 prefectures or provinces, from Hokkaido in the north (near Siberia, Russia) to subtropical Okinawa (my ancestors land) near Taiwan.
I love hiking, ride a bicycle, picnics, meeting people from all over the world, ice cream! :)
Looking forward to seeing you in JAPAN!!

“Enjoyable experience and time well spent”
First time in Tokyo. We hired a guide to help us get oriented with the city, public transportation, and local customs. Mitsuru arranged a well thought out itinerary for us based on the preferences we communicated to him in advance. Mitsuru's english is excellent. He is a great listener and always made a point of making sure he and we were on the "same page". I am certain our time with Mitsuru helped us make the best of use of our time and less stress during our visit to Tokyo. I highly recommend Mitsuru.

“Amazing Day in Tokyo”
On our first trip to Tokyo we decided to have a tour guide help us see the city and also help us navigate the transit system. Mitsuru took us to all the places we wanted to see such as the Imperial Palace, Nihonbashi District, Ginza > Tokyo Bay zone and the Olympic Village. We wanted to walk as much as possible and also took the train to see many places our first day. Mitsuru was very informative, friendly and flexible and it resulted in a fabulous day for the family. We highly recommend Mitsuru.

Hi, I'm Ritsuko, a national licensed tour guide. I was born and raised in Tokyo. As Tokyo is a city of many faces, I hope you will discover your hidden gems during the tour. I love to wander around the shops and places downtown and one of my hobbies is to find daily-use products made in Japan. So I can select unique souvenirs for you within your budget! I am football-mad and have been to every FIFA World Cup except one tournament since 1998. I also love to go island hopping in Asia. That's why I have been to over 30 countries. Wherever I went, people were so kind to me. So, it's my turn. I will do my best to make your tour a memorable one! Hope to hear from you soon.
