Tochigi Private Tour - This photo was taken in 2012 after the big earthquake.  Our TOTAK members were asked to guide the individual overseas visitors handled by the biggest inbound operator.  I am on the right hand side.

Tochigi Private Tour - This is a typical Ryokan (Japanese Inn) dinner.  My wife and I have never tried anglerfish cuisine before, so we decided to go to Ooarai in Ibaraki prefecture which is located next to Tochigi prefecture.  We ordered separate dishes such as "liver of anglerfish" and deep fried.  Deep fried goes well with beer and liver is really matched with dry sake.

About Tour Guide Jack M.

Hi there!! I am an English speaking tour guide based in Utsunomiya city near Nikko. Since I came back from Auckland, New Zealand I started my own business as an English Speaking Guide. I have been a guide for 6 years. My favorite things to do these days are 1. visit historical places in Tochigi prefecture, 2. find nice restaurants and bars in Utsunomiya 3. wear hats while I am working outside.

Important

If you want to enjoy Nikko, please think about staying Nikko or Utsunomiya, I will take you around the night tour if you stay in Utsunomiya.

Jack knows Nikko!

We thoroughly enjoyed our escape from Tokyo to beautiful Nikko! Jack was very hospitable, knowledgeable and able to navigate very busy nature sites to maximize our time. The tour was a nice mix of nature and history with cultural discussions mixed in.
