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 Guide/Friend in Japan - Shusaku”

My wife and I booked Shu for our first full day in Japan, and it was the best decision of our trip. We asked him for a custom service experience and he made it so easy. His energy was great from the moment he met us at our hotel. He thoughtfully looked over our itinerary and gave us ideas we used all week, then patiently taught us the trains so we could get around on our own. He was so kind and fun to talk to that it felt like exploring with a friend. He showed us hidden spots in Shinjuku by day, then took us out in Shibuya at night for yakitori, standing sushi, and drinks in Golden Gai. We never would have found any of it without him. Don't hesitate. Book Shu. You won't regret it.

Shusaku M.

Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a wonderful review! I was truly happy to meet you both, and I'm so grateful that I had the opportunity to spend that special day with you. You both have such a warm and positive energy, and exploring the streets of Tokyo together was a wonderful memory for me, too. I'm really glad I could help make your first full day in Japan special. It was a pleasure spending time with you, and I hope we can meet again someday! Please feel free to reach out anytime if you ever need anything in Japan. I sincerely hope the rest of your journey is filled with many more wonderful memories! ArigatoGozaimasu!!!

“Best Time in Tokyo with Shusaku”

We spent 2 days with Shukasu as our tour guide and that was the best decision we made about our Japan trip. Without him we would have been so lost; he helped us to get the Suica cards, talked a lot about Japanese culture and he showed us around places we hoped for. He listened our wishes and made them happen, arigato gozaimasu we are already missing your company!:)

Shusaku M.

Thank you so much for spending these two days with me! It was truly a pleasure and an honor to meet you both. I really enjoyed our time together in Tokyo. And thank you so much for the Moomin mug! It has already become one of my favorite things. If you need anything during the rest of your trip, please feel free to message me anytime. I hope you have an amazing rest of your trip in Japan! Thank you again, and I hope we can meet again someday! ArigatoGozaimasu!
