Born and bred in Tokyo I am still living in the suburbs of Tokyo. I spent several years in the U.S. and the UK and wanted to show international visitors around Japan in return for the hospitality I had received in foreign countries. After coming back from the UK, I obtained the qualification of the National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter. I can guide guests to every corner of Tokyo including areas off the beaten track. As a history fan I can tell you a historical episode behind the scenes. From a local perspective I can explain how we Japanese are getting along. Since I have science and technology backgrounds, I can give you a tour of scientific or technical things as well..
I can guide you to places far from Tokyo if you pay my transportation fee.
All tours can be customized for you. Send me a message with your requests!

“Excellent English and Enthusiast ”
Fumi was very detailed in helping us build a touring plan with him. He acquired our river cruise tickets and ensured my husband could enjoy a tea ceremony in a Japanese garden. Fumi answered our many questions with enthusiasm and real pride in his country. We had a fabulous day and highly recommend a walking tour with Fumi.

“A Fun and Meaningful Day”
Fumi and I had a lovely day in Western Tokyo exploring a historical garden, a Zen temple, and the Tokyo Edo Museum's Architectural Park. Seeing and especially being in the historic buildings brought the past alive and made my connection with the other humans that have come before us more real. Fumi is superb guide with a great command of English and history. I was so happy to be introduced to Western Tokyo where I would not have probably gone. We had a very full and enjoyable time together, and you will too. Fumi is great!
