Hello, I'm Hiroshi.
I am a National Government Licensed Tour Guide Interpreter in English. I received a master's degree in Computer Science from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in the U.S.
I have lived in a city of Fujisawa, which is a city next to Kamakura, for more than 20 years, and also used to live in Kamakura for more than 10 years. So far, I have visited almost all the temples and shrines in Kamakura. I am sure I can offer you a pleasant trip to the historical city!
In addition to Kamakura, I can also guide you around Tokyo, Yokohama, Hakone, Nikko, etc. because I have visited many places in Kanto area. For example, in Tokyo I can show you around many sightseeing spots, such as Asakusa, Tsukiji, Imperial Palace, Meiji Shrine, Tokyo Skytree, etc.
I like baseball and used to play baseball, but now enjoy watching professional baseball games. And I like watching Rakugo, Japanese traditional story-telling performance.
Of course, I also like travelling very much, and am interested in Japanese culture and history. So I would like to show you Japanese tradition and culture.
Let’s enjoy a trip in Japan together.
I am looking forward to seeing you soon.

Thank you for writing a review. I'd be delighted if you enjoyed the tour in Tokyo. The samurai ninja experience was truly fascinating. Asakusa was crowded, but I hope you enjoyed shopping. It was only a half-day tour, but I had a wonderful time with you. If you have the opportunity to come to Japan, please contact me again. Let's enjoy Japanese traditions and culture together.

“Very warm and kind person with a lot of knowledge”
Hiroshi is really a very kind and nice person. He knows everything and also has a good sense of humour. Thank you for a lovely day Hiroshi.

Thank you for the review. Although the Tokyo Fish Market was closed, I'm glad that you enjoyed Tsukiji Honganji Temple and the Tsukiji Outer Market. We were also able to enjoy the view of Tokyo from the boat on the Sumida River cruise. We weren't able to meet the Emperor at the Imperial Palace, but I hope you felt the atmosphere of the Edo period. I'd be delighted to see you again in Japan soon!

“Our Perfect Trip”
We decided that we were going to hire a guide for our stay in Tokyo. It is a choice that would end up making our trip perfect. After viewing many guides we decided to contact Hiroshi. We worked with Hiroshi and combined a couple of his tours and he helped customized our tour based on our interest and included stops for my teenaged son. I am so glad we hired Hiroshi. Thank you, Hiroshi.

Thank you for the review. I also had a great time with both of you. In Ryogoku, we were able to learn about the history of sumo wrestling and other topics, and I hope you enjoyed it. When we visited Tokyo Skytree, the weather wasn't very good, but we were able to see Tokyo Bay, Shinjuku, Tokyo Dome, etc. We also enjoyed a different view of Tokyo from the boat during the Sumida River cruise. The summer in Japan was very hot and humid, but I am very happy if you enjoyed the tour in Tokyo. Around Tokyo, there are many attractions such as Hakone, rich in nature, Nikko, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and Kamakura, where you can experience samurai culture. Please let me know when you come to Japan again. Let’s enjoy Japan’s nature and culture together!
