About Tour Guide Kanae O.

Hello! I am Kanae, a nationally licensed guide. While working full-time as a lecturer at a local university in Kyoto, I have also been guiding for two years.


Born and raised in Kyoto, I am excited to share the beauty and culture of my hometown with my customers. Kyoto is an enchanting city, and even as a local, I am continually fascinated by its many charming spots. Whether it's the serene temples, vibrant markets, or hidden gems, there is always something new to explore and appreciate in this wonderful city.


Also, since my home is close to Shiga Prefecture, I am very familiar with the area. While Shiga may not be as popular as Kyoto, it offers a wealth of attractions for tourists. From historical sites such as temples and shrines to the stunning natural beauty of Lake Biwa, the largest lake in Japan, there is much to see and do. I am passionate about promoting Shiga and sharing its unique charm with visitors.

Fantastic guide would recommend to family and friends traveling to Kyoto

Kanae is born and raised in Kyoto, she is very knowledgeable, besides sites we have requested, she designed the itinerary to include beautiful and yet less touristy locations to avoid big crowds. She was very accommodating to our last minute itinerary changes as well. Good communication through out the booking process. I would definitely recommend her.

Wonderful time with Kanae

We had the most amazing day with Kanae. She was friendly and approachable and thoughtful. She was so knowledgeable about Kyoto and took us to Temples and Shrines that were not touristy and we were so appreciative of the peace and being able to experience the culture and history . Kanae constantly ensured that we were happy with the tour and would have changed some of the itinerary but everything was perfect . She made our day interesting as well ans relaxing and we have lovely memories of our time with her in Kyoto . Thank you so much.

Kyoto - Tokyo Shinkansen

The last thing I need whilst making my way from Kyoto to Tokyo, on a day I am going to fly, is anxiety. When Kanae met me at my hotel first thing in the morning, I was immediately at ease. Kanae was kind, full of smiles and professional. We made our way to Kyoto Station via taxi and Kanae assisted me in purchasing my bullet train tickets and Narita Express tickets. While accompanying me on the journey to Tokyo station, I was never more relaxed, being in the hands of a professional, in a country where English is not widely spoken. Kanae made sure I got on the Narita Express as we bid farewell.
