About Tour Guide Jose david V.
Hello there! I am hoping you're having a great day!!
My name is Jose, born and raised in Spain (Barcelona) and I have been living in Japan for the last 10 years, first it was Hiroshima that I called home, for the past few years it has been Kyoto.
I have a wide knowledge of japanese culture, it's social life and it's manners, as well as the most impressive monuments, streets, parks and temples.
I love the city of Kyoto and all of the wonders it has to offer to the people whom decide to visit it, from the Fushimi Inari temple to the Nijo Castle. It is a surprising city with combines the best of modern day activities with the reminiscence of old Japan.
I would like to share my experience in Japan with you, so you have the greatest experience possible.

“Good Guide - Flexible & Fun”
Jose David was the best guide we had in Japan. Would recommend. He was willing to adjust the tour on the fly to our wishes. Further, he was happy to answer a variety of questions as we walked.

“Excelente guía y aún mejor persona”
Muy atento y muy considerado Jose En el aspecto como guía sabe navegar muy bien por la ciudad y también se siente su amor y conocimiento por la misma Fuimos un grupo con una persona embarazada y dos adultos de arriba de 70 años y supo adaptar el tour a las necesidades del grupo. Buscando la manera más amigable de conocer y buscando siempre la comodidad de nosotros, asientos en el vagón del metro evitar escaleras, buscando rampas y elevadores, la verdad es que mis padres no resintieron nada las caminatas que por lo general tours como estos requieresn. Cien por ciento recomendado

“Escapada a Nara”
Ya habíamos utilizado los servicios del guía, así que sabíamos que íbamos a pasar un gran día y así fue! El guía es puntual, flexible con los itinerarios, muy amable y el tiempo pasado juntos fue muy entretenido. Viajamos en familia (con niño de 5 añitos) y él no pudo ser más comprensible y paciente con nosotros. Buscaba a cada momento algún pequeño detalle que mantenga a nuestro niño feliz y conectado con la actividad. Como en previa ocasión, nos dio muchísimas explicaciones e información adicional. Un gran tour de la maño de un gran profesional y aún mejor ser humano! Recomendable a 100%!

Muchísimas gracias, guapísimos! Espero que tengáis un feliz vuelo de regreso a casa y recuerda lo de ese vinito, ese relax y ese baño caliente, baño frío, sauna y repetir. Muchísimas gracias por todo, habéis sido maravillosos. Os deseo lo mejor. Un abrazo a los cuatro.

I have spent nearly 30 years working with the Japan International Cooperation Agency (JICA), contributing to development projects in Latin America and African countries. During this time, I cultivated strong cross-cultural understanding and effective communication skills. For the past 10 years, I have lived in the UNESCO World Heritage city of Guanajuato, Mexico, where I managed a guesthouse, operated a jewelry workshop, and provided guided tours. Through these experiences, I have developed a deep sense of hospitality and attentiveness, ensuring that visitors have a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Leveraging these skills, I am dedicated to sharing the beauty of Japan with international guests and creating unforgettable travel experiences.

I have worked in the multi-national organizations including UN agency for around 30 years and stationed at various cities including Rome, Bangkok and Hanoi. Although I have retired from those international carriers, I wish to keep the international cooperation and develop the friendship with people who visits our country. As I like history and am practicing Noh song and wood curving of Buddha images, I have decided to live in Nara where is surrounded by many historical places and traditional cultures, when I returned back to Japan in 2017. I wish to offer you custom made trip ideas to be able to enjoy the atmosphere of old city, Nara. I am also planning to develop trip plans to enjoy the local cultures. Please call me Yasu.

Hi, I am Shuji, a licensed tour guide living near Kansai International Airport. I taught world history in high schools for four decades. So, I can explain Japanese culture or history in an easier way tailored to you who have different cultural and historical backgrounds. I also practiced Kendo, Japanese fencing, for more than four decades, and now I enjoy growing vegetables and going fishing. Therefore, I can also share some Japanese culture and its nature. I have traveled to more than 25 countries and all over Japan. I’m also passionate about photography and know many photogenic places in Japan. If you prefer to go off the beaten track, I can take you to hidden gems, including some cozy restaurants. Of course, I also know how to enjoy the crowded, most popular tourist sites. I am here to make your trip stress-free. See you soon!
