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!

“ An Unforgettable Night in Shinjuku with Matsuura”
We had an incredible night in Shinjuku with Matsuura. He took us to authentic spots we would have never found on our own, every stop felt special and truly local. The food was amazing, and the drinks just kept coming. Matsuura was incredibly kind, friendly, and easy to talk to. We chose to invite him for food and drinks, and something we really appreciated was how respectful and considerate he was when ordering—very thoughtful throughout the night. The cherry on top was that he brought his camera and took photos of us during the tour, which he later shared. Such a great touch that made the experience even more memorable. We had the best time with him, the conversation flowed effortlessly all night. If you’re looking to experience Shinjuku’s nightlife in an authentic way, don’t miss the chance to go out with him. It’s 100% worth it.

“Exemplary experience!”
Shusaku was very friendly, funny and accomodating to our needs as a family of four adults. He showed us how to navigate the train system in Tokyo and showed us so many wonderful places in just a few hours. We all enjoyed his company and knowledge of the tourist sites. We highly recommend him to other travellers in Japan.
Shusaku M.

“We did the bar hopping and food tour with Shu.”
Shu was outstanding. He was fun, really well spoken and took us to places the general visiting public might miss. His English was excellent and he adapted to our interests. I don't think you will find a better person to tour this district with.
Shusaku M.
Thank you so much for your kind and wonderful review. I’m truly happy that I was able to spend such a great time with you and that you enjoyed Tokyo’s nightlife. Your warm words mean a lot to me and truly encourage me. If you come back to Tokyo again, please feel free to contact me anytime. I look forward to seeing you again. ArigatoGozaimasu!!

Being a former student and staff member of the University of Tokyo, I have a natural ability to communicate with people from all corners of the world. Regardless of whether you prefer to speak English, French, or Globish with me ! I have practiced Aikido, Iaido (Katana), and Kyudo (Bow) martial arts, and I have also worked on the restoration of Japanese armor. Therefore, I am well-versed in the art of war in ancient Japan. But my passion for history goes further, and during my guided tours, I will share various anecdotes that will bring ancient Japan to life for you ! I'm also a huge fan of old Japanese video games, especially RPGs, so if you want a true otaku experience, follow me to Nakano Broadway and Akihabara! If you're interested in arranging a tour that's tailored to your preferences, feel free to send me a message !

Shin N.
Welcome to Japan! I'm Shin. I have been an English Guide in Japan more than10 years. I can guide Tokyo, Kanagawa and almost all metropolitan sightseeing and walking spots. I was born in Kobe, grown up in Osaka, and studied in Kyoto, so not only Tokyo but I also have a good knowledge of Japanese historical cities. I love talking about Japanese food & culture, walking quiet narrow streets, drinking tasty Japanese whisky, Sumo, Rugby & Sports, and Japanese mountains. I climbed Mt. Fuji 18 times with foreign guests. We enjoyed the auspicious moments of sunrising from the summit. I would like to support you to make your stay in Japan memorable and precious one. It is grateful if you refer to my proposed tour schedule, in the case you have your own interests, I am happy to tailor the tour schedule responding your requests. Please feel free to contact me. I look forward to sharing wonderful time in Japan with you. Be my guest!

Hiromi Y.
Hi, I am Hiromi, a National licensed guide in English. I studied in England and U.S. during my 20s and 30s. I graduated college in NY. While I lived in overseas and experiencing different culture, I had chances to look at Japanese culture from the outside. And I realized its richness and uniqueness. Experiencing different culture was like discovering my own culture. I live west part of Tokyo with my husband. Whenever we have time we like traveling. Also I have been practicing tea gathering (tea ceremony) about 10 years. In Tokyo, there exist traditional culture as well as pop culture. There are so many places I would like to show you. It’s my pleasure to introduce you exquisite part of Tokyo. Let’ enjoy exploring TOKYO with me! I’m looking forward to sharing memorable experience with you.
