“Osaka with Uuki ”
We had a tour in Shinsekai in the evening and the osaka day tour on the following day with Uuki. We had street food ( skewers ) in Shinsekai and enjoyed the beautiful neon lights. Then went to Dotonbori area to enjoy night time happenings. We all enjoyed the tour the next day and japanese lunch wearing kimonos. She is flexible, helped us with taxis for those who has walking issues. we all enjoyed her beautiful smile and attention to details. Hope to see you when you visit USA.

“An amazing day!”
I couldn't ask for more from Uuki. She went above and beyond during the tour. Whenever I asked about stores or food, she was attentive and would adjust the route to show me her recommendations. She is also incredibly patient and answered any odd questions I had throughout the day. Uuki is a local with impressive knowledge of the area but most importantly, she's a genuinely lovely person. I would happily recommend her as a guide to anyone.

“Excellent, personalised tour guide”
Uuki was a fantastic tour guide for my time in Osaka. She listened to places that I wanted to visit and made suggestions along the way of other things that suited my interests. It was very easy to create a personalised tour and I didn’t feel any pressure or rush. She was accomodating every time I wanted to stop and look in a shop, and also helped provide translation for items that weren’t in English. Her English is great, we didn’t have any language barriers as an Aussie with no Japanese whatsoever. She answered all the questions I had about cultural differences between our countries as well as having knowledge of the things we were sightseeing. She was great to take photos of me during our time together as I was travelling solo. I couldn’t recommend her enough Thank you so much, Uuki!

Dear Miss Sheridan, Thank you very much for choosing me as your tour guide in Osaka. I also really appreciate your kindness. The otter cafe was so much fun—you’ve started my journey of exploring animal cafes! I hope you have a great time in Tokyo too. Best regards, Uki

Thank you for visiting my page. I will guide you to the ancient capital cities with 1000 years of urban development and 100 years of filming and screening history. I grew up in Osaka, studied in Kyoto, and worked for 20 years as an urban planning expert for the national and local governments. During this time, I surveyed many community development sites throughout Japan. I welcomed business leaders to encourage investment in the cities. After quitting my career, I became a film-loving professional engineer. I visited unique cities in foreign countries to see urban planning and locations that appeared in picturesque film scenes and posted photos on social media (90 cities in 30 countries up to now). The more I saw foreign cities, the more I loved my hometown. I wanted to know about the travel industry and got a national license as a Guide-Interpreter and Travel Service Manager. I have started guiding based in the old capital cities. The entire area of old Osaka, Kyoto, and Nara has been a Metropolitan area centered on the Imperial Palace, and the actual location of the Palace has changed 15 times since the 7th century. This area has many historical spots and hidden attractions in different times and places: the townscape, temples, shrines, landscaped gardens, and historical drama locations (SAMURAI drama). I will create your favorite tour using my list, and guide you leisurely. I look forward to hearing from you.

Hi! I'm Koichi. I was born in Osaka, I studied in Kyoto when I was a university student. Now I live in Shiga next to Kyoto. I am a national government licensed tour guide. I have been guiding about 160 groups over the past twelve months. I usually guide my customers mainly in Kansai region including Kyoto, Nara, Osaka, Kobe and Shiga by public transportation systems. Well, I am curious about Japanese history, especially the history of Japan's ancient times since I was raised next to the world biggest mausoleum of the ancient Emperor called "Nintoku" in Sakai city Osaka which has just become one of the world cultural heritage sites. I dug out some ancient earthen ware vessels around there when I was a primary school student like the adventure archaeologist “Indiana Jones" (It’s our secret!!). That was my hobby. Now, one of my hobbies is outdoor activities such as mountaineering, kayaking, skiing and others. So I would like to take you to some good places where you can enjoy Japanese unique nature. I love to guide foreign visitors from all over the world. I think it is my calling or heavenly given job. Let's go and enjoy together! I hope to see you soon.

Hi! I had been working for Wakayama Prefectural Government for 38 years, mainly in the field of cultural heritage management and international relations. I am a national certificated English guide and I have a lot of knowledge and experience in the field of cultural heritage management and international relations. I am very good at cultural heritages. And Koyasan and Kumano in Wakayama Prefecture are inscribed in the World Heritage List as parts of “Sacred Sites and Pilgrimage Routes in the Kii Mountain Range". I was a project manager of "the Koyasan and Kumano World Heritage Inscription Project” at Wakayama Prefectural Government. I know inside and out of Koyasan, Kumano, Wakayama and other places in the Kansai area. I have a lot of experience of guiding as I was also in charge of international relations for a long time at the government. I will be able to provide interpretive guiding service for you around Koyasan, Wakayama, Osaka and other places in the Kansai area as I am a cultural heritage management and international relations professional. I am sure you will be able to get deeper understandings on Japanese culture and that your trip with me will be memorable one.
