About Tour Guide Yuta I.
Hi, my name is Yuta, and I’m a guide based in Kyoto and Osaka :) I guide in both English and German, and I enjoy helping visitors discover Japan in a way that feels personal and memorable.
As a local guide, I know Kyoto, Osaka, and Nara very well. I love showing both the famous highlights and the smaller hidden spots that most visitors don’t get to see.
I design custom tours for individuals and groups, whether you’d like to explore Kyoto’s temples and gardens, Osaka’s lively neighborhoods, or Nara’s peaceful parks and friendly deer. Along the way, I share stories, history, and insights to help you experience these places more deeply.
I also enjoy taking photos during tours so you’ll have lasting memories of your visit. Most importantly, my goal is to make your time in Japan enjoyable, relaxed, and truly special.
If you have questions or would like help planning, please feel free to reach out. I look forward to welcoming you and showing you the beauty of Japan!

“Kyoto Tour”
Wir hatten einen wunderschönen Tag mit Yuta in Kyoto und können ihn uneingeschränkt weiterempfehlen. Vom ersten Moment an haben wir uns bei ihm sehr wohl und bestens aufgehoben gefühlt. Yuta ist unglaublich freundlich, sympathisch und verfügt über ein beeindruckendes Wissen über Kyoto, seine Geschichte und Kultur. Er hat sich viel Zeit genommen, all unsere Fragen zu beantworten, und die Tour ganz entspannt und individuell gestaltet. Dank ihm konnten wir viele besondere Orte entdecken und spannende Einblicke gewinnen, die wir alleine sicher verpasst hätten. Seine angenehme Art und seine Begeisterung für Kyoto haben den Tag zu einem echten Highlight unserer Japanreise gemacht. Wir würden jederzeit wieder eine Tour mit Yuta buchen und können ihn jedem empfehlen, der Kyoto auf eine authentische und persönliche Weise kennenlernen möchte. Vielen Dank, Yuta, für diesen unvergesslichen Tag!

Yuta I.
Hallo Thomas,vielen Dank für deine schönen Worte, ich habe mich wirklich darüber gefreut. Es hat mir große Freude gemacht, dich und Franzi durch Kyoto zu führen. Durch unsere vielen Gespräche ist der Tag für mich wie im Flug vergangen, und ich habe die gemeinsame Zeit sehr genossen. Es freut mich sehr, dass ich ein Teil eurer Erinnerungen an eure Japanreise sein durfte. Kyoto hat viele stille und besondere Orte, und es macht mich glücklich, dass wir einige davon zusammen entdecken konnten. Wenn ihr eines Tages wieder nach Japan kommt, meldet euch gerne bei mir. Ich zeige euch jederzeit gern wieder etwas Neues. Bis dahin wünsche ich euch beiden alles Gute und nochmals vielen Dank!!

Ayumi S.
Academic Knowledge & Global Mindset – Your Local Expert for Culture and Sports! Hi everyone! I’m Ayumi, a local guide based in the Kansai area. I studied Tourism at University, where I explore the deeper historical and cultural backgrounds of Japan's most famous sites. Having traveled to many countries myself, I know exactly what makes a trip unforgettable, authentic local experiences and stress-free environment. Why book with me? Academic Insight: I don’t just show you the sights; I share the "why" behind them, from the architecture of Himeji Castle to the rituals of a tea ceremony. Active & Diverse: Whether you want to go hiking in Kobe, watch a professional rugby match, Baseball game, Soccer game, or find the best hidden yakitori spots, I’ve got you covered. Flexible & Friendly: I understand the needs of international travelers and will help you navigate Japan (including your JR Pass) with ease. Shopping & Sweets Expert: I am a huge fan of shopping! If you need recommendations for Japanese cosmetics or the best local snacks, just ask me. I especially have a "sweet tooth" for Apple Pie and Daifuku (mochi)—I’m always on the hunt for the best ones in town! Let’s go beyond the guidebooks and discover the real Japan together. I look forward to meeting you in Kyoto, Osaka, or Kobe!
