Tokoname Pottery Town Walk Tour
Tokoname town is famous for its pottery production, which was one of the six ancient kilns. It is located just a 10-minute taxi ride from Chubu Centrair International Airport and a 40-minute train ride from the center of Nagoya city. You can enjoy a one-hour walk along the Pottery Footpath. There are great photo spots, pottery shops owned by local artists, casual restaurants, and coffee shops. If you come from downtown Nagoya, you can enjoy a 4-hour tour that includes walking and lunch.

“Gujo-Hachiman Town Visit”
I contacted Roy a bit out of the blue, hoping he might be able to be a guide to an area not listed on his profile at the time. To my surprise, he was well-informed about the area and able to accommodate my request. I believe fate intervened to bring us to Roy, as he was absolutely amazing. We did not feel like we were with a guide; we felt like we were going on a day trip with a good friend who knows all about the area we wanted to see. You would NEVER know we were the first people he took to this area! He is so comfortable to be around, so knowledgeable, and so attuned to others' needs; it was a simply amazing and comfortable day. He was even able to recommend a restaurant that had food we all enjoyed (no small feat). If we are ever in Japan again, we will see if Roy can assist us, and we will send all our friends his way, too! Area visited: Gujo-Hachiman town Length of time: 6 hours 30 minutes We were: 3 adults ranging in age from mid-40s to mid-70s. Opinion of the town visited: LOVED it too! Highly recommend a day trip to this town before all the tourists find out about it!

Angela, I hope you had a wonderful trip in Japan. It was also the fortune for me to happen to be found and have an opportunity to visit Gujo-Hachiman town together with your group. Gujo-Hachiman is the untapped destination offering history, traditional housing structure and local culture and foods, where perfectly met your request to visit less busy inbound tourist destination. I look forward to seeing you again in Japan. Roy

“Nagoya Half Day”
Our guide,Roy was spectacular. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the local history and culture, making every stop come to life. For our first time in Nagoya he made the history so inteesting and explained everything in great detail but yet not over the top and we came away with so much information. He was very helpful answering our questions carefully. English was very good. He was patient and listened to what we wnated to do regarding food and shopping!
Roy K.
Edith, Thank you very much for your warm review. I also had a great time with you and your husband to walk around various destinations in Nagoya and enjoyed the inspired conversation. Have a wonderful holiday season. All the best, Roy

“Wonderful time with Roy”
Roy was wonderful. Very professional and knowledgable. He had a printed schedule of our day, which my husband loved. He also lost no time in teaching us. On our train ride, he took out his binder and gave us a short version of Japan's history, which we loved. He was great with my two boys! Thanks Roy!

Hi Maria, I’m glad to know you enjoyed the tour in Nagoya, which I was also so happy to spend time with your family from my favorite country. All the best, Roy

Hello everyone! Many thanks for checking out my profile. I'm originally from New Zealand but have spent my adult life here in Japan. The Nagoya area has been my home since the early nineties. I have witnessed the region's transformation from a sleepy industrial city to the vibrant metropolis of today. I would love the opportunity to tell you about some of my adventures and also a few of the outstanding people I've met. I spent many years practicing karate and have also developed a deep interest in Buddhism. I speak Japanese confidently. I'm new to GoWithGuide but have previous experience giving walking tours. To be able to introduce you to a few of my favourite Nagoya suburbs would be a treat. There are fascinating, historic temples as well as a stupa that purportedly contains a portion of the Buddha's ashes. Also, there are numerous tempting eateries and a few quirky shops. I prefer guiding guests around these less visited areas as you can get a feel for how the locals live. I look forward to meeting you soon.
