About Tour Guide Tom K.
I’m a Japanese who live in Nara and deeply loves Nara Prefecture.
I spent a long time traveling abroad, broadening my knowledge, and working as a tour guide.
Then I returned to Nara in 2024.
I can provide two appealing types of tours:
1. A tour visiting traditional World Heritage sites such as Todai-ji, Kasuga Taisha Shrine, and Nara Park.
2. A short hiking experience or hands-on, interactive sightseeing tour.
(Both of types are posible to customizable.)
Based in Nara, I will provide you with an incredible time filled with local insights and 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!

Hi! I'm Keiko. I was born in Osaka,raised in Nara, and now live in Kyoto, each of which is a lovely place. I love cooking, travelling, eating, and meeting lots of people, which led me my current job as a tour guide and a cooking instructor here in Kyoto, the ancient capital of Japan. I'd like to show you the charms of Kyoto; the world heritage sites, nice spots good for social media, nice foods, hidden gems off the beaten track with the story of Japanese culture and history. And I'd also like to assist you to make a lovely day through my Japanese cooking experience class. Additionally, I love children and of course, respect the elderly. The kids usually take to me right away! I'd like to assist every member of your multi-generation family touring in Kyoto by my suggestions. I look forward to welcoming you. See you soon!
