Kon-ni-chi-wa. Hello! I'm Kaori, having lived in Tokyo for more than 20 years since I got married with a photographer who lives here. I'm originally from Shizuoka prefecture which has Mt.Fuji, the highest mountain in Japan.
I took 2 working-holiday-visa stays in my younger days. One is in Toronto, Canada, and another is Australia touring by motorcycle. One year respectively.
I love travel both international and domestic, especially by motorcycle. That's why I love helping individual travelers rather than normal package tours, cause I myself love travel freely.
I love nature, gardens, trekking, greenery, cycling and motorcycle. I love to take you to the off-the-beaten tracks where I love in Tokyo.
As a national government licensed guide, I've got deep knowledge of Japanese culture and history. I really enjoy talking about Japanese way of life with people from different cultures. But I'm so flexible that I don't bother if you're not so interested in. We see what you like and talk what you are interested in. That's my style. If you don't know what to want, I can help you with that.
I'm outgoing, ( but organized pretty well!), very easy to get along with anybody, including small kids to teenagers.
Can't wait to see you soon!
“Wonderful person to spend the day with!”
Kaori San is super reliable, punctual, responsive and knowledgeable guide. But the most important- she is a wonderful and caring person. We had fantastic experience with her today. I highly recommend her! Thank you again, Kaori San!

(73 reviews)Let me give you a big THANK YOU, Tetyana-san, you took time to write a warmest review for me just after the tour. But the most important, thank you for treating me as a part of your family today. Now I've got a new friend of mine, a funny face Totoro at my desk by your happy surprise! Every time I see my Totoro, I’ll remind of time with your family. So happy to be a tour guide. Hope to see you again for maybe Yanaka adventure! Hugs and kisses, Kaori

“Wonderful cultural insights!!”
Kaori was a wonderful tour guide! She went above and beyond to understand what our interests were and then designed a tour specifically tailored to us. The time with her flew by! Our tour was an incredible mix of history, culture, and anime! Her kindness, warmth, and professionalism made our first day in Tokyo very special. Highly recommend!!

(73 reviews)Thank you for giving me an excellent review, Michelle-san! I was so happy to be with you and your cute boy for a day in Asakusa and Akihabara for anime and gaming culture! Was so fun to chat with Leo-kun about favorite anime and character. Of course with you about culture and history too! Hope to see you again next time also with your busy husband! Hugs and kisses, Kaori
“Great day ”
We enjoyed our day very much. Got to visit a range of places but the best thing was, we learnt a lot about Japanese culture which we loved.

(73 reviews)Thank you Susan-san for giving an excellent review just after the tour! It was so fun for me to talk with each of your family. Yes, we have learnt a lot each other, but also had a great laugh all the day. Happy to hear Japan is now No.1 popular destination from Australia!! I hope we have another adventure together on your next trip, maybe for off-the-beaten next time! Enjoy the rest of your stay! Hugs and kisses, Kaori
