About Tour Guide Naoya U.

My Name is Naoya.

I was born in Tokyo in 1952.

After my graduation from Keio University, I joined a Japanese bank.

Mainly I was assigned international business and stayed in London for three years.

At the age of 52, I moved to a Japanese manufacturer company and had worked for 11 years.

As a personnel manager, I engaged in hiring Indian graduates.

Then for two years, I went to Tashkent in Uzbekistan as a JICA senior volunteer.

I taught "corporate finance" at Tashkent Financial Institute in English.

I got the guide license in 2017, After I came back to Tokyo, I am working as a volunteer guide,

especially in Shinjuku.


I hope to create special and deep tours in which tourists are interested but by now they were not

able to gain access to.

For example; Visit to various Universities, Visit to narrow streets in Tokyo, Visit to feel Edo (Now and Then)


My hobby is playing the guitar. I hope we are in peace through music.

I am also interested in Art, History and cooking.

My major subject is economics and finance.

Great tour to Kamakura

Thanks to Nao for a great day spent touring Kamakura! His knowledge and English were great! He picked us up at our cruise ship and guided us using the train. We would highly recommend booking with Nao. Kevin and Lisa from Canada

Hi,Kevin and Lisa Thank you for your wonderful comments. We were blessed with great weather and cherry blossoms in full bloom, and we had a great time together. I appreciate your cooperation. Nao

Best guide

Naoya and Gowithguide was a discovery upon my research that I started almost a year ago with a dream to see Cherry Blosdoms. As a solo traveller , I was a bit hesistent due to language barriers- but Naoya was divine intervention to make my journey absolutely hassle free and wonderful! Through 9 months of my research and enquiries, Naoya kept responding absolutely on all ( there were many!). I was assured that he would be my perfect guide on this wonderful journey. He was and became my friend, philosopher and guide to accommodate all . Thank you Naoya for making Sakura journey a celebration!

Thank you Anu. We have been preparing together for a long time. It is very difficult for tourists to see the cherry blossoms in Tokyo at the right time. Thanks to you, we were able to have you come to Japan at a very good time this time. We are very happy. We were able to share a very happy time. Thank you for your cooperation. Nao

Awesome welcome!

As a solo traveller in an unknown country one needs a trustful guide - well Naoya was like that shining diamond that I found on go with guide!! Absolutely wonderful to start my cherry blossom trip with this quiet but resilient guide Naoya who turned out to be more than a professional guide ( which of course he excels in). Thank you Naoya for your exemplary thoughtfulness and making my Sakura viewing incredible!

Thank you for your kind comment.,Anu. Unfortunately, it rained on the second day of the Tokyo tour. We had to change the plans at short notice, which was difficult, but thanks to your cooperation, we were able to meet your request. Thank you very much. Shopping for souvenirs was fun, too. There were some things I had never seen before, which was very interesting. Nao

Japan

Hello everyone! I was born and raised in Kawagoe, a charming historic city located just next to Tokyo in Saitama Prefecture. Two years ago, I graduated from university here in Japan, and I now work as both a tour guide and a study abroad support advisor. Three years ago, I had the life-changing opportunity to study abroad in Vancouver, Canada. The warmth and hospitality of the locals left a deep impression on me. I discovered the joy of immersing myself in a new culture and way of life, and I truly came to appreciate the beauty of connecting with people from diverse backgrounds. Now, I want to be the one offering that kind of experience to others. As your guide, my goal is to make your journey in Japan truly special. Through GoWithGuide, I strive to go beyond typical sightseeing—I want to create meaningful opportunities for you to engage with Japan’s rich culture and traditions on a deeper level. I’m committed to providing a safe, thoughtful, and unforgettable experience for every guest. Let’s not just visit Japan—let’s feel Japan. Join me on this unique journey, and together, let’s discover the heart and soul of this incredible country. I look forward to meeting you soon! Depending on your tour and needs, my teammates Kei and Ethan may also join to help ensure the best experience.
