Hi everyone! My name is Yuta!
Thanks for checking out my profile.
I've been living in Kyoto for over 4 years, and I love exploring and sharing the city's amazing history and culture with people from all over the world. During university, I spent over a year traveling around Europe, which helped me become fluent in English and German.
I studied at the University of Leipzig in Germany and got great experience through an internship there. My wife is German, so I'm always in an international environment, learning about different cultures.
Besides guiding tours, I'm also a social media influencer with over 10,000 Instagram followers. I love sharing interesting content about Japanese and German life, connecting with people globally, and showing off the beauty of Kyoto.
I offer custom tours for individuals and groups, making sure each experience is unique and special. With my deep knowledge of Kyoto's historical sites and architecture, I'll make your visit to Japan's ancient capital fun and enlightening.
During our tour, I'll share cool historical insights and stories about the places we visit, helping you understand Japan's past and its connection to the present. I'm friendly and attentive, so I'll make sure you have a great time in Japan!
Feel free to message me if you have any questions about your trip to Japan!
Hope to see you soon on one of my tours.
All tours can be customized for you. Send me a message with your requests!

“City Guidance with Focus on Streetfotografie”
Yuta did a very good job in showing us photografical hotspots and architectural highlights in Osaka. We have to mention, that we did not ask for a normal touristic tour. Wie the Great Day with Yuta.

“Great tour through Kyoto”
Yuta was very friendly and showed me and my family the old town of Kyoto in fluent German. We also learned a lot about the Japanese way of life. I would always book again, thanks for the good time, Yuta!

Thank you so much for your kind words! Walking through Ninenzaka and Sannenzaka with you and your family was a wonderful experience. We were lucky with the timing, so it wasn’t too crowded, and we could enjoy the area comfortably. If you ever come to Japan again, let me know:) I’d love to show you around once more!
