About Tour Guide Minako M.

I am a licensed tour guide in Akita.

I'm on a mission to unveil the enchanting allure of Akita Prefecture to the world.

Nestled away from the hustle and bustle of Tokyo and Kyoto, Akita Prefecture boasts a traditional Japanese landscape that's as unique as it is captivating. My passion lies in ensuring that every visitor, no matter where they're from, experiences the richness of Akita's nature and culture.

Great Walking Tour of Akita from a Local!

I had a fantastic time visiting Akita with Minako. Minako was able to meet me and take me to some fantastic spots around Akita and share lots of local knowledge with me. We enjoyed lunch, walking through Senshu Park, visited the museum which had amazing art and more. If anyone is coming to visit Akita - please feel free to book with Minako and enjoy a lovely day out with her. We also enjoyed some delicious ice cream and sake tasting at the end of the tour.

Dear Elisa, Thank you so much for your wonderful review and for spending the day with me in Akita. It was a pity that we couldn’t visit the Glass Museum and Matsukura old house as they were closed, but I’m so glad we could still enjoy many beautiful spots together. Your Japanese was excellent, and I truly enjoyed our conversations in Japanese. I hope you continue to have many wonderful journeys ahead!

Kakunodate family adventure

Minsko is such a sweet person :) she picked us up at the port in Akita, took us on the bullet train to the Samurai village, we made coasters out of cherry wood, had a delicious lunch in a cute local restaurant, toured a museum, visited Akita dogs, went to a second Samurai home, and did some shopping. We had a wonderful day and and some amazing photos. Thank you so much for an amazing day.

Thank you so much for your kind words! It was an absolute pleasure showing you around Akita and the samurai village. I’m so glad you enjoyed making cherry wood coasters, meeting the Akita dogs, and exploring the local sights (and restaurants)! Your son is so handsome and was great to chat with; your daughter is beautiful, and I could really feel how much you cherish your family. Your photos look fantastic—I had a wonderful time with you all. Wishing you even more unforgettable moments during the rest of your journey!
