About Tour Guide Junko Y.
Hi there! I'm Junko, a government licensed tour guide and interpreter. I was born and bred in the Tokyo area. I can customize my tour or ceate a tour any way you like, so please send me a message if you are interested. I have spent a year as a graduate student in the US, and traveled in several countries. I've made friends with non-Japanese people throughout my life, and I have a pretty good knowledge of what they want to know. I love goofy jokes and having fun. I will do my best to make our clients' stay in Japan a wonderful one.

Nikko One Day Tour: Shogun's Legacy
This tour offers you an opportunity to appreciate incredible artisanship in majestic nature, which is a very unique experience to Nikko. We will visit Toshogu Shrine, Rinnoji Temple, and Taiyuin to observe the magnificent architecture and marvelous sculptures. We will open our imagination to the Edo Period and speculate on what Shogun's legacy means to our present day.
Narita Airport Pickup by Train & More
Are you worried about finding your way from the airport to your hotel? Are you worried if you can use the trains and subways, which are far more complicated than those of NYC? In this tour, I will pick you up at Narita Airport and take you to your accommodation by train or bus. On the way, I will show you how to use the trains and subways from where you stay. I will answer any questions you might have about your stay in Japan. The goal of the tour is to be prepared for the exploration of Tokyo!
Tokyo One Day Tour Customized Just For You
This tour takes you to the places you chose from a wide variety of sight seeing spots only Tokyo can offer. Some of them are: Tokyo Skytree, Asakusa Sensoji Temple, Shinjuku Gyoen Garden, and Akihabara. Also, please don't hesitate to tell me what you would like if you are more interested in non-touristy spots, such as Used Bookstore Street in Jimbocho or secondhand clothing stores in Shimo-Kitazawa. In any case, I will customize a perfect tour for you!!

“An incredible day out with Junko!”
Our day with Junko in Tokyo was one that we will never forget! She took us to some amazing sites, showed us how to use the daunting subway system and was fantastic company throughout the entire day. Could not recommend her highly enough! For us, it was definitely one of the highlights of our trip.
