About Tour Guide Yumi U.
Hi! I’m Yumi, National Licensed Guide.
Japan has so many charms, must-see spots & must-eat dishes.
Let’s enjoy those with me as you’ve got a local friend. Feel free to contact me to plan your own trip
Golden age guests, family with kids are highly welcomed!
Big cities like Tokyo or Kyoto is wonderful as you know, but the local places like my location is also nice. Reasonable prices, easy to book hotels, not so crowded, etc.
When you travel between Tokyo and Kyoto, why don’t you stop by at Nagoya?
★Let's enjoy something local while you stay in Japan!
I mainly do walking tour using public transportations. Let me know your preferences to make your original itinerary.
I am available for not only for day tour but also evening tour to visit where locals gather and enjoy food and sake at local bars and cozy restaurants.

“Thanks to Yumi”
Dear Yumi Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! We wanted to tell you how much we appreciated the time spent with you during our trip to Nagoya. It was one of the most enjoyable highlights of our introduction to Japan, made even more delightful because of your pleasant, personable and perky spirit. The rain was overshadowed by your positive attitude and desire to make the tour a good experience for us and we enjoyed so much getting to know you. The time spent was more like a friend showing and sharing her city with us than a formal guided tour ... Thank you yumi Sincerely Darwin Sent from AT&T Yahoo Mail on Android

Dear Darwin, I am honored by the good reviews you have given me that are beyond my means. Actually, the time I spent with you that day was like spending time with my relatives. I would like to thank you all from the bottom of my heart for the kind and warm way you treated me. Although the weather was not so great, I had a very pleasant day thanks to everyone's cheerful and calm personalities. I hope you will visit Japan again! Warm regards, Yumi

“What a memorable experience in Nagoya! ”
It was our first family trip to Nagoya. We were traveling with a nine-year-old girl. We visited many cities in Japan. This time, we mainly hired a local tour guide to help our girl appreciate Japanese culture and history.  Ms. Yumi was very friendly and thoughtful. She built rapport with our family quickly. She was accommodating and tailormade a bespoke day tour experience for us, particularly for our girl who loves crafts. We had a great time learning about Japanese culture and the history of Aichi prefecture from her. Thank you, Yumi, for creating a memorable experience for us.

Thank you Maggie for the highest praise. It was a really hot day that day, but I had a great time enjoying Nagoya's culture and food with you all. It was a great experience to be asked so many questions by those of you who had done your research on Japanese history beforehand. The craft store was fun! Please come to Nagoya again if you have the chance.

Yumi was fantastic! Not only was she reliable and always on time, but her knowledge of the area was impressive. She explained everything in an easy-to-understand way, which made the tour enjoyable for everyone. Thank you, Yumi!

Hello everyone. I am Tetsuji. I worked as a public servant in the local government for 35 years. I belonged to the department of Redevelopment, Town-Landscaping, Preserving historical areas and Architectural Guidance. (I have a national 1st-class architect license.) I devoted myself to revitalizing the city by making plans and improving infrastructure for citizens. Gifu is located in central Japan near Nagoya. As just being the crossroads of the West and the East, there are many unique attractions that are hard to discover in hectic big cities like Tokyo or Kyoto. I had a hand in restoring and preserving some of them throughout my career and want to introduce them to tourists from abroad. That’s why I became a guide-interpreter in Gifu. I also enjoyed traveling around the world. My favorite part of each trip was walking around the city and talking with local residents. Traveling has taught me lots of things during my lifetime. Now, I would like to help others have similar experience in Japan. Shall we enjoy fantastic journey in Gifu?

Hello everyone! Many thanks for checking out my profile. I'm originally from New Zealand but have spent my adult life here in Japan. The Nagoya area has been my home since the early nineties. I have witnessed the region's transformation from a sleepy industrial city to the vibrant metropolis of today. I would love the opportunity to tell you about some of my adventures and also a few of the outstanding people I've met. I spent many years practicing karate and have also developed a deep interest in Buddhism. I speak Japanese confidently. I'm new to GoWithGuide but have previous experience giving walking tours. To be able to introduce you to a few of my favourite Nagoya suburbs would be a treat. There are fascinating, historic temples as well as a stupa that purportedly contains a portion of the Buddha's ashes. Also, there are numerous tempting eateries and a few quirky shops. I prefer guiding guests around these less visited areas as you can get a feel for how the locals live. I look forward to meeting you soon.
