About Tour Guide Kazuhiko G.

Hello, I’m Kazuhiko. Please call me “Kazu”. I'm a national-licensed tour guide. I have a wife and 4 children.

I was born in Osaka city near Kyoto, although I have lived in many places across Japan. I used to work for multinational electric company and I traveled to many countries (U.S., Thailand, Hong Kong etc.) on business.

I have enjoyed guiding many foreign tourists in Kyoto, Nara, Osaka, Hiroshima, Tokyo, Mt. Fuji etc. for many years.

During your tour, you can discover a rich Japanese history spanning about 2,000 years, learn about and experience profound Japanese arts (tea ceremony, flower arrangement etc.), feel the spiritual atmosphere of Buddhist temples or Shinto shrines, see a breathtakingly beautiful scenery of Mt. Fuji, bamboo forest, Japanese gardens etc..

Moreover, you can taste Japanese cuisine that each season has to offer (Sushi, Tempura, Soba or ramen noodle etc.).

You can get close to nature and feed wild deer or monkeys or even a build snowman in winter.

I’m sure that I can provide a splendid tour of Japan that will be a lasting memory for you to treasure.

Experience the mysteries of Japan with 5 senses !!

Your memorable tour awaits you.

Excellent guide for 4 days!

Our group of 9 (2 families, 4 adults, 2 teens, 3 kids) spent 4 days with Mr. Kazu as our guide in Kyoto, Nara, Osaka, and Himeji/Kobe June 15-18. He was able to arrange the requested van for our day in Kyoto and guided us through train use the other days. He was highly organized and made sure we were able to see all of the planned sites. He made us a reservation for an absolutely outstanding kobe restaurant in Kobe and confirmed to make sure everything was set. We definitely would have floundered to choose the best restaurant option without him. Mr. Kazu had great recommendations and was highly receptive to our planning requests as well as on-the-spot preferences. Our entire group had an amazing time and we would highly recommend Mr. Kazu as a guide for anything in that broad area!
