About Tour Guide Robert B.
Welcome all! My name is Robert, and I’ve lived in Japan for over 20 years here in Tochigi Prefecture, the home of Nissan performance heritage and some of the most beautiful driving roads in Japan.
This experience was created from two passions:
the Nissan Fairlady Z and the incredible scenery, culture, and atmosphere of Nikko.
Most visitors only see Nikko in a rush as a crowded day trip from Tokyo.
I wanted to create something different.
A slower, more immersive experience where guests can truly feel the mountains, the roads, the atmosphere, and the spirit of Japan from behind the wheel of an iconic Japanese sports car.
Our flagship car is the Nissan Fairlady Z NISMO, built here in Tochigi and designed to connect driver and road in a way very few modern cars can.
This is not a race.
It’s not about speed.
It’s about the feeling of driving through the cedar roads of Nikko, climbing Irohazaka, discovering hidden places, enjoying local food, and experiencing Japan in a more personal and unforgettable way.
For guests joining the 5-person group experience, the goal is simple:
great roads, great scenery, great conversation, and memories you will never forget.
Whether you are a lifelong car enthusiast or simply curious about Japanese car culture, I hope this experience becomes one of the highlights of your time in Japan.
Feel the Mountain Spirit!

Hello, future guests! My name is Ryoko. I was born and raised in Utsunomiya, near Nikko. I’ve been lucky enough to visit many countries, and I love traveling and meeting new people. Now, I’m really happy to be able to share the beauty of Japan with visitors from all over the world. I’ve been guiding in Nikko and Utsunomiya for over 10 years, and I can show you not only the famous sights but also local culture, food, and hidden gems. Beyond sightseeing, I also enjoy customizing trips to match your interests—like sake brewery visits, or a pottery tour and hands-on experience in Mashiko, the famous pottery town. I’d be delighted to help make your journey truly special. So, why not travel with me? I’m looking forward to meeting you soon.
