About Tour Guide Yumi I.

I have lived in Tokyo for a long time, and I like Tokyo and really enjoy the life of Tokyo.

I love eating, shopping and cooking, so Tokyo is one of most exciting places in Japan for me!! I think, not only for me and Japanese people, but also foreign tourists.

I want to give you unforgettable memories in Japan. My top priority is to help you discover, enjoy, experience and feel Japanese culture, gourmet and life with the heart of Japanese hospitality.

I’m interested in cross-cultural exchange. Let’s talk a lot about anything you want to know and try to do in Japan.

I’m looking forward to seeing you the tour.

Amazing orientation and first day in Tokyo!

It would be hard to put into words how grateful we were to have selected Yumi as our guide. Coming off a 14 hour flight, I was most concerned with general orientation, the train system and checking off some “must do” items. Yumi completely accommodated this, helping us purchase the right train passes, and planning a day that was busy but not rushed and hit off on a key neighborhoods. We felt much better about being to navigate the next 5 days we were there because of Yumi. She is incredibly knowledgeable about Tokyo but also about what makes sense to do in a day. Our trip got off to the best possible start because of Yumi’s care and consideration - please book Yumi to assure your best trip possible. Thank you Yumi for everything!

Great Tokyo guide!

We spent our first half a day in Japan with Yumi. She was very attentive and thoughtful of our needs. She taught us a lot about Japanese customs and culture, and took us to special places that are not on the regular tour guide. She enquired in advance about our interests and made sure to adjust the tour to our taste.

Danya G.

Danya san, thank you so much for your wonderful review. I could learn about lots of things about the culture of your country. I was very surprised and happy to see your family, especially your son, Itay, studying Japanese and very interested in Japanese food and culture. I hope that during their stay in Japan, your family will learn a lot of Japanese, and experience many things, and deepen their interest in Japan. I hope that the weather will be good for the rest of your trip and that you will have many wonderful memories. Please come again. Thank you. Yumi

Exploring Tokyo as first timers

We chose Yumi based on other reviews and were delighted we did. Prior to our trip the communication was excellent. We are a family consisting of mum, dad, son & daughter in law. The age difference meant we all wanted different things. Yumi took this into consideration and created the perfect itinerary for us. We covered Sensoji Temple; Hamarikyu Gardens; Tsukji Fish Markets; Imperial Palace & Gardens & Asakusa Tourist Information Centre Viewing Tower. Needless to say that if we hadn't had Yumi we'd still be trying to find a way out of the Ginza station. Highly recommended her for your trip. Thank you Yumi from Barbara, Paul, Dylan & Rachael.

Barbara san, thank you so much for excelent review, and I am really happy to meet with you and your family. You and Rachel are so friendly and talked a lot, so I could learn about many things about your country Ireland. The weather was nice, but it was hot and you must have been tired. I am very happy if I could be of any help to you on your first visit to Japan. I sincerely hope that the rest of your trip will be blessed with good weather and that you will have lots of fun and create many wonderful memories. Thank you again Barbara san, Paul san Rachael san Dylan san, and have a wonderful journey in Japan. Yumi

Hi. I’m Seigo. I am a licensed guide in both English and Chinese. I can speak Spanish just a little bit. I enjoy listening to music, watching sports, driving in my car, and learning new languages in my free time. Since I have lived in Kanagawa my whole life, I can offer satisfying private customized tours to each guest group. My recommended destinations in Kanagawa are Kamakura, a seat of Japan's first Shogunate, and Hakone, a popular resort area with mountains and Lake Ashi. In addition to the standard tourist destinations, I can also drive you around some nice places in the suburbs of Tokyo that foreign tourists don't usually visit. It will be great if you have fun exploring Japan with my little help. Please feel free to contact me anytime! I'm looking forward to seeing you soon!

I came to Japan in 1998, intending to stay a few months, but enjoying Japan, I never left. I was intrigued by the history, culture, language, and food. And the fascination and excitement of exploring and learning new things about Japan still exists with me today. The variety and choices of things to do and places to go can be overwhelming. I can offer you suggestions and a unique perspective on Japan. I can share local knowledge about things often missed. Fluent in Japanese with a master's degree in Japanese Studies and living in Japan for over 20 years, I can be your guide.

My name is Kumiko. I used to live in New York and London and worked for US companies for many years. Based on my experience, I recognize that Japan is a fascinating country, but at the same time, it is unique in many ways. Tokyo, as the capital of Japan, is a unique and diverse mix of cutting-edge technology, traditional culture, and Western influences. As an art lover, I am happy to show you many galleries in Tokyo. I received a Certificate of Art Business Masterclass from Christie's. As a guide, I'd like to explain to my guests about Japanese culture as well as background and introduce popular places and food. I think most visitors coming to Japan are hoping both to enjoy themselves and also have a meaningful encounter with a different culture. I am looking forward to helping you explore my city and enjoy everything it has to offer.

I’m so excited to have a chance to show you around my favorite spots in Kanagawa prefecture. I was born in Kanagawa. I spent my whole school life, including university, here in Kanagawa. I worked as a high school English teacher here for 40 years. I love Kanagawa so much. We have many interesting tourist spots, like Hakone, Kamakura, Enoshima and Yokohama. I got my tour guide license in English in 2009. I am still an English teacher. To give an interesting and impressive lesson to young high school students, I’ve learnt and gathered many kinds of information. I also have a license to teach social studies, so I have a wide range of knowledge about Japanese culture and history. I’m sure to provide you an interesting tour.
