“Great experience in Tokyo. ”
We had a great time with Kahako. We had rain but this didn’t dampen out tour. Her knowledge and experience is fantastic and would highly recommend. My wife requires gluten free food and Kahako took us to a super little resturaunt who served a meal. Thankyou.

Thank you very much for the wonderful review ! Even though we were not so lucky about the weather, I had such a lovely time with a terrific couple. I really appreciate your tolerance and cooperation. Yes ! Both gluten free restaurants were like for dwarves. Anyway, thanks to you, I'm highly looking forward to visiting your country next year. I hope you and your family's good luck and health. Thank you again and take care!

“Experiencing Tokyo with a local in the know”
We had a wonderful time on our Tokyo tour Kahoko, which was an unforgettable experience. The tour gave us a fantastic opportunity to immerse ourselves in the local culture, from visiting historic sites to experiencing the vibrant atmosphere of Tokyo’s neighbourhoods. We truly made the most of our time in the city, with an itinerary that was both efficient and packed with amazing experiences. One of the most helpful parts of the tour was the guidance on navigating Tokyo’s complex train network. We never would have been able to figure it out on our own, but with the expert assistance, I felt confident traveling around the city. Another highlight was seeing Tokyo Station from above the street level, offering a unique and stunning perspective of one of the city's most iconic landmarks. Kahoko provided handy tips and advice for the rest of our trip, including guidance on how to buy Shinkansen tickets, which saved us so much time and stress. Overall, I highly recommend this Kahoko for anyone visiting Tokyo.

Thank you very much for the wonderful review ! It was really encouraging and gave me further motivation for the job. I was wondering how your journey was going after that. As you are positive and ready to enjoy every occasion, you must have made unforgettable memories. It was a great pleasure to have done something helpful for you even a little. I just had such a lovely time with a terrific couple. I was highly impressed with your interests to our culture. In a limited time, we talked a lot about many things. Through the conversations, I myself was able to learn a lot about you and your country. It was a precious time for me.Thank you very much for everything. I hope your good luck and happiness. Please take care!

“Two days that were beyond excellent!”
Our two days with Kahoko were terrific. She was well organized and gave us a great overview of Tokyo. She was incredibly responsive in helping us map out an intinerary of sites well in advance of our visit. We used public transportation which was fabulous. We left feeling that we really saw Tokyo. On top of that she was genuinely nice and caring and made sure we knew where we going when we left her. We enjoyed every single minute of being with her. Thank you Kahoko. We hope to come back and see you again!!

Being a former student and staff member of the University of Tokyo, I have a natural ability to communicate with people from all corners of the world. Regardless of whether you prefer to speak English, French, or Globish with me ! I have practiced Aikido, Iaido (Katana), and Kyudo (Bow) martial arts, and I have also worked on the restoration of Japanese armor. Therefore, I am well-versed in the art of war in ancient Japan. But my passion for history goes further, and during my guided tours, I will share various anecdotes that will bring ancient Japan to life for you ! I'm also a huge fan of old Japanese video games, especially RPGs, so if you want a true otaku experience, follow me to Nakano Broadway and Akihabara! If you're interested in arranging a tour that's tailored to your preferences, feel free to send me a message !

Koichiro Y.
Hello! I’m Koichiro. Please call me “Yamasan”. It derives from my family name and my friends call me so. I worked for a machinery company as a project manager and engineer for mechanical and electrical construction projects both domestic and overseas for over 35 years. I recall my first overseas project in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia when I was 26, and the second was in Singapore. I visited many countries for surveys, meetings, commissioning, project handing over, and so on. In 2014 at the age of 60, I decided to retire from the company and live the expected further 30 years of life with a new career and experiences. I, then, studied translation and guide interpretation. I passed the national examination for licensed guides (English) in 2015 and registered with the Tokyo Metropolitan Government in February 2016. Until now, I have been guiding many beautiful guests mainly to popular sightseeing spots such as Asakusa, Tsukiji, Omote-Sando, Meiji Jingu Shrine, and Tokyo Skytree, and also cultural experiences of Origami making, Furoshiki wrapping, and Sushi cooking. I am happy that I can freely arrange a customized tour together with you, or can propose my tours to you. I want to show you some parts of daily Tokyo life and introduce you to Bunkyo City which is located in the heart of Tokyo, just north of Chiyoda City where the Imperial Palace and Tokyo Station are. The city is Tokyo’s typical residential and academic area where I was born, grew up, and live a happy life now. Now, we can tour around the world but have not yet overcome COVID-19 completely. Recently, the number of passengers wearing masks on public transportation in Tokyo reduced to some 25% but we should mind about it still. Please carry your mask to wear it where or when necessary (December 2024, Yamasan).

I’m so excited to have a chance to show you around my favorite spots in Kanagawa prefecture. I was born in Kanagawa. I spent my whole school life, including university, here in Kanagawa. I worked as a high school English teacher here for more than 40 years. I love Kanagawa so much. We have many interesting tourist spots, like Hakone, Kamakura, Enoshima and Yokohama. I got my tour guide license in English in 2009. I am still an English teacher. To give an interesting and impressive lesson to young high school students, I’ve learnt and gathered many kinds of information. I also have a license to teach social studies, so I have a wide range of knowledge about Japanese culture and history. I’m sure to provide you an interesting tour.
