About Tour Guide Shusaku M.

My name is Shusaku. I was born and raised in Osaka, where I had the opportunity to immerse myself in the beautiful landscapes and rich culture of the region.

During my travels to 10 different countries, I came to realize the importance of listening to the locals to truly understand the culture and charm of a place. This experience taught me that local knowledge and experiences are invaluable in building a deeper understanding and connection while traveling.

In my tours, I make it a point to not only showcase the popular tourist destinations but also to share insights into the everyday lives of locals and the culture of the region. By incorporating stories and knowledge from locals, I aim to provide a more enriching travel experience.

My mission in life is to foster a deeper understanding of the world through travel and to build connections with people from different backgrounds. I look forward to creating unforgettable memories and sharing new discoveries with all of you!

“Best of the best!!!! ”

I have been around the world and usually enjoy having a local Guide when it comes to traveling as a foreigner. Shusaku is the best guide I have ever had. He is excited to show you his country and customs, while at the same time being very sensitive to providing you with the best experience as a tourist. Extremely accommodating. He is informative, upbeat, and very funny. There is such a good shopping in Tokyo, and he even helped me carry all of the stuff I purchased. I was traveling solo, but next time I bring my family, I will make sure to have him guide us. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Shusaku M.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! I’m truly grateful that you chose Japan for your trip. I had such a great time spending the day with you, and I was fascinated to learn about the world of kaleidoscopes from you! I hope you’ll visit Japan again someday. I’d love to show you and your family around Tokyo, including Harajuku, next time! I hope you enjoy the rest of your time in Japan. If you ever need anything, please feel free to message me anytime. Arigatou gozaimasu!!!!!!!

“Tsukiji Market with a Comedian!”

Shusaku was an excellent tour guide for Tsukiji Market. He has a very good sense of humour (no doubt because he used to be a comedian). He was really fun to spend the morning with. If you want to have a genuine chat about what it's like living in Tokyo, and the difference between living there and in Osaka, he's a great choice. If you want to ask questions about the food in the market (either for dietary restrictions or out of curiosity), he's more than willing to chat with the vendors. He made navigating the market very easy, and lots of fun. Plus, we always forget to take photos, but he brought his camera along. He snapped some of our favourite photos from the trip.

Shusaku M.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It was truly a pleasure to meet you both and spend the morning with you in Tsukiji. I'm so happy to hear that you enjoyed the photos! If you ever come back to Japan, please feel free to message me anytime. I hope we get to meet again someday! ArigatoGozaimasu!!!
