Hi, I am Nobu, a national licensed tour guide.
The main areas I guide are Tokyo and its surrounding areas including Mt. Fuji, Hakone and Nikko, but I can also accommodate custom tours according to your wishes.
I also offer tours using my minivan.
You can take a short tour by the minivan that stops at several spots on the way from Narita Airport to your hotel in Tokyo.
If you let me know your preferences, I will design a private tour that is perfect for you.
I am looking Forward to Meeting you soon in Japan!

I can guide you in Tohoku District including Akita, Aomori, Iwate, Fukushima, Miyagi and Yamagata only if you could bear my transportation fee of 8,000Yen. (Sorry, but I usually live in Chiba.)
For Kanto District including Chiba, Hakone, Ibaraki, Kamakura, Kanagawa, Mt. Fuji, Narita, Nikko, Saitama, Tochigi, Tokyo and Yokohama, the pick up fee is 3,000Yen.
If you would like me to guide you in any other area, please feel free to contact me.
All tours can be customized for you. Send me a message with your requests!

“Amazing Tour and Tour Guide”
Nabo was a wonderful guide and very informative. He was also very considerate of my mother’s accessibility needs. I would highly recommend Nabo and his half day tour.

Thank you very much for your review. I am so happy to know that you enjoyed my tour. Naritasan Shinshoji Temple is a very popular temple, receiving the most visitors for the New Year's visit. However, many people just visit the main hall and then leave. As you now know, in addition to the main hall, Shinshoji Temple also has the Shakado Hall, Komyodo Hall, Great Peace Pagoda, and Naritasan Park, which has a beautiful garden. It would be my great pleasure to help many visitors to Japan to visit these wonderful places. Nobu

“A Day Tour to Mt. Fuji Area from Tokyo by a National Licensed Guide with a Minivan”
Our experience with Nobu S was excellent where he provided history and cultural information of all the touring destinations. In addition, he took us to a typical local Japanese restaurant for lunch which was an experience in itself and the food was great where we sampled traditional cuisine together with some sake. Nobu S was a friendly and knowledgeable guide and we are thankful for the excellent experience we had with him during the tour. Thank you Nobu S and all the very best for the future.

“Enjoyable Day Around Mt Fuji”
Nobu was great! He was very quick to respond and flexible to our groups plans. We ended up extending an hour and doing a sake tour which was enjoyable.
