Hello Noel Thank you for a favorable review. I myself had a wonderful time. I hope you enjoyed the KODO mini concert and firework show? Kei from Sado
“Excellent experience with Kei-san”
Before we even met, Kei-san worked with me in crafting a great itinerary. Trust his instincts! I was luke warm on some sites but it turned out to be sooo interesting. My husband was very glad, Kei did not take my initial input. He was very attentive & accommodating to my knee problems. Provided helpful translations w/store clerks & gave a wonderful sense of why he loves this island. We booked Kei for a full day & half a day.

“My Sado Island experience”
Without Kei-san, my visit to Sado Island wouldn't have been as complete as it was. The island was much larger than I first thought and the only public transportation available on the island was a bus route network. Kei-san's first-hand knowledge and his car allowed me to see most of the island's highlights within half a day and I even saw a few unplanned sights along the way. Senkaku Bay, the Sado Gold Mine, Shukunegi Village, the Toki Forest Park, and other places were unique experiences that I hadn't seen elsewhere in Japan. I was able to see them in the limited time that I had thanks to Kei-san. Kei-san was a very helpful, knowledgeable guide for Sado Island and his skill in the English language was impressive. I would like to thank him for his help in making my Sado Island experience one of the most memorable ones for my Japan tour.

Yokoso! Welcome! Hi, I'm Mutsuko, a National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter. A true Niigatite, I was born and raised in Niigata City with roots dating back generations. I would be pleased to show you another side of Japan in my beautiful and unique prefecture. The Warm Hospitality: Niigata Prefecture is located on the west coast of the Japanese Archipelago, facing the Sea of Japan and provides a true insider look into the Japanese spirit. Only two hours away from Tokyo by Shinkansen, it has been perfecting the art of casual hospitality through centuries as a culinary hotspot and nature getaway for the those escaping the rat-race. History at your own Pace: Appreciate history and culture at your own pace in Niigata. Yahiko, National Shrine has been soothing souls, and inspiring locals, poets, and travellers for over 2500 years. Historically significant buildings greet seafarers at Niigata Port and the old town area, Furumachi. Cross the symbolic Bandai Bridge to the other side of the Shinano River where we can move from the ancient to the modern in the Bandai area to shop and gather with young and old for entertainment such as movies, music, manga, and anime. Over the Sea, Over the Mountain, Over the Fields: Nature is good to Niigata Prefecture, giving us four clear-cut seasons. People from all over the country, and travellers wanting to experience Japan with the Japanese join us to soak in the sun on our beaches, relax at spa resorts, challenge themselves on world class ski hills, and dance together at festivals that draw world class performers. Travel with Me: With direct trains to and from Tokyo and an international airport, Niigata is just a stone's throw away to have a unique taste of Japan. Whether you're planning a day trip or a longer stay, I invite you to visit Niigata City and other parts of the prefecture, and while here, it would be my pleasure to help you create unique memories during your stay.
