Hello. My name is Atsuko.I'm a licensed tour guide in Japan.
I have lived in Osaka since I was born.
I have guided many tourists all over the world as a volunteer for 6 years. I like showing my tourists my favorite places in Japan and talking with them. Osaka, where I was born and raised, is famous for foods, modern and ancient cultures. Nara and Kyoto, which are neighboring places, were ancient capitals in Japan. I'm happy to visit those places with you.
All tours can be customized for you. Send me a message with your requests!

“Thorough tour and history of Kyoto”
Atsuko did a wonderful job showing us the key places throughout Kyoto. We covered a lot of ground and saw a lot. She was flexible when we decided to change up some stops and wanted to spend more time in some areas over others. Great way to spend the day!

(55 reviews)Hello Ms. Joanne, Thank you for your kind review and words. I really enjoyed this tour with all of you. I am happy to hear you enjoyed the Kyoto tour. It was a beautiful day so I think you could take wonderful pictures. Unfortunately, Kyoto was busy. Trains were busy, especially on the train on the way back to the port. Please enjoy the rest of your trip. Please say hello to everyone. Thank you for joining my tour. Best regards, Atsuko
“Excellent, Friendly and Accomodating *****”
Atsuko-san has delivered an excellent Osaka overview tour for us. She has been very communicative through the trip even before confirmating the reservation asking about customizing, answering general questions about Japan, providing helpful hints about sights for helping us choose. On the day of the trip, she arrived at our hotel on time and took us around to the different spots by metro, rearranging schedule as needed, took us to a nice restaurant for lunch and overall very caring. Just FYI be prepared for a good amount of walking as part of the tour Would highly recommend Atsuko-san.

(55 reviews)Hello Mr. Suresh N, Thank you for your kind review and comment for me. I am happy to hear you enjoyed the tour yesterday. I wondered you would enjoy walking in the heat on the tour. I also enjoyed showing you especially the temple. It was fun to share Buddhism with all of you. You must be in Kyoto now. Please enjoy the Kyoto tour today and your Nara tour tomorrow. Thank you for joining my tour. Best regards, Atsuko

“Great day with Atsuko ”
Atsuko was a wonderful guide, she was so helpful with information leading up to the day. She was exactly where she had explained she would be on arrival and at the time she said. It was extremely hot in Osaka and Kyoto, Atsuko helped us around and altered the itinerary to suit our children and elderly family members who were struggling with the heat. Would highly recommend at Atsuko

(55 reviews)Hello Ms. Natasha, Thank you for your wonderful revies and comment for me. I had a great time with your family yesterday. It was very hot and humid, so everyone was tired walking around Arashiyama. I think it was good to skip the shrine and change to the market. I enjoyed talking and playing with your three little cute girls. Thank you for joining my tour. Please say hello to everyone and enjoy Hiroshima today. Best regards, Atsuko
