“Highly recommended”
Shuichi-san was a wonderful guide. We really appreciated his great English, his good humour and easy going manner. We originally had just been interested in a Ghibli tour but found this combined tour and decided to try it. It was such good fortune. The architecture museum is excellent as a standalone tour but even better when combined with Ghibli because of the inspiration it provided to Miyazaki-san, something we hadn’t been aware of. Great day.

Hello, I was born in 1956 in Hiroshima and have lived in Tokyo for over 40 years. I have a license of “National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter”. I love outdoor activities, especially fishing and golf. I have been to CANADA for 6 months as a bank trainee and have worked for 5 years in the US at the age of my 30s. It is my pleasure to show you around in Japan. As you know, there are four seasons in Japan and you can enjoy the nature of each season. Especially in spring time, cherry blossoms in full bloom welcome you. Japan is a safe country, meals are very delicious, and you can explore Japanese great history at the spiritual places of shrines and temples. Please contact me. You are assured to have an enjoyable and memorial trip. I'm looking forward to having wonderful time with you. See you!

Hallo zusammen! Ich heiße Masahiro, aber meine Freunde nennen mich Masa. Nach meinem Studium in Tokio habe ich von 2006 bis 2013 in Wien gelebt. 2013 bin ich endgültig nach Japan zurückgekehrt. Während meiner Zeit in Wien habe ich die deutschsprachige Welt und ihre Kultur sehr intensiv kennengelernt. Heute möchte ich eine Brücke zwischen dem deutschsprachigen Raum und Japan sein – und genau deshalb arbeite ich als Reiseleiter. Ich habe das Gefühl, dass diese Aufgabe meine Lebensaufgabe geworden ist. Für mich ist ein Guide so etwas wie ein privater Diplomat. Er verbindet Menschen aus verschiedenen Ländern und Kulturen und hilft ihnen, einander besser zu verstehen. Ich habe bereits Erfahrung darin, meine Gäste durch viele verschiedene Orte in Japan zu führen, unter anderem durch: • Tokio • Kamakura( Kanagawa) • die Region um den Fuji • Kawagoe(Saitama) • Nikko(Tochigi) • Karuizawa (Nagano) • Kanazawa(Ishikawa) • Kyoto • Osaka • Kobe • Himeji • Nagasaki …und natürlich gibt es noch viele weitere Orte zu entdecken! Ich wohne heute in der Nähe von Tokio. Deshalb sind Touren in Tokio und der Umgebung für mich besonders gut machbar. Eine Reise macht das Leben bunt! Lassen Sie Ihren Alltagsstress hinter sich und genießen Sie entspannte Momente, neue Entdeckungen und interessante Begegnungen – vielleicht sogar den einen oder anderen kleinen Kulturschock. Ich freue mich sehr darauf, Sie auf Ihrer Reise durch Japan zu begleiten! Bis bald in Japan!

I grew up in the UK, and have lived more than ten years in the UK and USA on overseas assignments. While I lived abroad, I started to realize how shallow my knowledge on Japanese culture, beliefs, history and food was for a Japanese resident, whenever I tried to respond to the questions my foreign friends had about Japan. For the last 20 years I’ve been doing a lot of domestic travel visiting areas that I’ve never been before, and studying history and culture, as well as enjoying Sake from all parts of Japan. From 2015, I intensified my studies of Japan, and in 2017, successfully received government certification as a qualified guide on Japan. Thinking it would help my studies as well as be beneficial for visitors to Japan, I opened a website titled “Rediscovering Japan” in 2016 to record my travels and share my experience with travelers to Japan. To date I have covered 25 of the 47 prefectures in Japan. I have found that rather than just visiting tourist spots at random, it is much more interesting if you have a clear theme of the places you are going to. I hope you'll enjoy the visits with me to rediscover Japan!
