Hello, I am Michiko , the same name of Japanese Empress. I am a government certified tour guide.
I have lived in Nagoya ( located between Tokyo and Osaka) for 35 years since I got married.
I worked for JAL as a flight attendant in my 20's. After retiring JAL, I have taught English and Mathematics to junior and senior high school students for 20 years.
I love traveling very much both domestically and abroad and enjoy walking around each city and talking with local people so that I can find out the way how to they live and think about their life. It's quite a fun for me. I also love hiking and mountain climbing in spring, summer and autumn, and skiing in winter.
In the countryside of Japan there still remain those farming and fishery villages where people have been rooted in their land and community, living the way handed down from generation to generation.
You can also enjoy the original Japanese landscape there.
Why don't you get out of the hustle and bustle of your busy life and have a rest rich in nature in the rural Japan enjoying beautiful scenery and local food.
I'm waiting for you!
Michiko is very patient and understanding of my client's story. she also planned a very meticulous and thoughtful day trip for the family and full assisted them along the way. The children and parents enjoyed her company and insight into Japan and really appreciated the heartful experience touring around Nagoya with her. During the planning, she was very efficient and quick in planning and gave many good insights that are also economical! Thank you Michiko :)
Dear Vanessa, Thank you for choosing me as the tour guide of Kenny Lee family during their tour in Nagoya and the fine review for me as wel. I also had a great time with them. The paremts are very friendly., thoughtful and cooperate. Marcus is quite independent and helps much his parents with big luggage. Alasdair is A Wishing Child and he always goes his way naturally. I love his way. I'm sorry I made a mistake in calling his name sometimes. A little girl, Arissa is so so cute! She is really an angel and a kind of princess. She is loved by everyone. Oh. I miss everyone in Lee family. I really enjoyed myself with them. Thanks again. A Happy New Year❗️ Michiko
Michiko is an excellent guide. She is very flexible to requests, communicative, and her knowledge of the areas she guides as well as English is superb.
Hi Zack, Thank you very much for such a fine review. Hopefully I had another chance to guide your clients. Best regards, Michiko
Michiko was a very good communicator and joyful to be around. Her easy going personality made our trip even more pleasurable. She was informative, organised and knew exactly where to go for views at Shirakawago and also where to eat! She was very helpful as my husband and I travelled with 2 young children. She was very kind and I highly recommend her for a tour. She is highly knowledgeable and we ask many, many questions!
