About Tour Guide Kunio N.
I usually play tennis with my friends every weekend and am tough enough to take you around everywhere you would like to visit in Tokyo area. I've studied at the university and worked for the company located in Tokyo total over 40 years, and so I know main popular sightseeing spots and fantastic spots though not so popular.
Day and Night in Shinjuku, Meiji shrine and Takeshitadori in Harajuku, Crossroads in Shibuya, Imperial Palace in the center of Tokyo, High brand shopping street in Ginza, Several Museums and quiet Forest in Ueno and Oldfashioned Nakamise and Sensoji temple in Asakusa.
Of course, I can take you to 5th station of Mt. Fuji, Ropeway and Pirate Ship in Hakone, Shrines and Temples in Kamkura or Gorgeous Toshogu Temple in Nikko. Since I 've already done bus tour guide several times for H.I.S. and JTB, I can take care over 10 people at the same time around Tokyo using public transportation.

Reviews
“I cannot recommend Kunio enough! ”
Planning our day with Kunio was easy and efficient through the messaging app provided by GoWithGuide. He was prompt to respond to questions and he accommodated our tour requests to the tee. From the moment we met him, he was full of interesting information and cool facts that really enhanced our experience. Despite the scorching heat, he was prompt and flexible, willing to deviate from our original itinerary to accommodate the needs of our tired kids. Our shopping "break" on Komachi-dori Street was extended, which gave the kids new energy. They indulged in snacks and tested their luck at a local shop where they won stuffed animals. He was fantastic with them and took us to a fabulous soba restaurant that we never would have gone to on our own. The pace of the tour was just right, allowing us ample time at each stop without feeling rushed. And to top it all off, he surprised us with gifts to commemorate our Kamakura visit. His level of care and attention to detail truly made our day unforgettable. I highly recommend booking a tour with him - you won't be disappointed!

Dear Annette san, Thank you very much for your favorable comment on our Kamakura Tour. I am glad to know that you and your family fully enjoyed the tour with me. It was a joyful tour for me also to receive cheerful family like you. I look forward to seeing you again in near future. Kunio
“Great day with Kunio”
We had a whole day with Kunio san in Tokyo and we asked to see quite a lot. Kunio san planned our day perfectly to maximize our one touring day in Tokyo. We got to all the sites we wanted to see in the day because we were guided through Tokyo and the Tokyo metro with a pro. We learned a lot of interesting facts along the way. We could never have done and seen so much on our own. A highlight was seeing Mt Fuji on a clear day. Thank you Kunio san.

“A great way to spend the evening!”
I had a fantastic time in the evening with Kunio-san, he took me to see lots of wonderful places in the evening, all very pretty places in the night which were all delightful and very interesting! We ended by having Sukiyaki and drinks, it was so good! I can't believe how much I ate! Thank you for such a wonderful time.

I'm Yukiko Fujii. I'm a Licensed Tour Guide and a Registered Nurse. I've worked as a guide since 2015. Thanks to increasing repeat, referred and new clients, tour guide is my main job. I've done virtual experience on Amazon and company events during the last 3 years pandemic. Since I am one of a few guides who tried virtual tour in Tokyo during pandemic, it was a challenging, but it was definitely a great step and enhanced my guiding skills. I was born and raised in Tokyo. I am a mother so that I'd be glad to welcome families with young children as well. I used to teach Japanese cultures to elementary students from Kindergarten to Grade 6 at local and private elementary schools when I lived in Canada, United states, and New Zealand. My happiest moments with these children were when they look forward to another lesson every week. All lessons were customized and prepared after discussing with each classroom teacher. It was a challenging job, but this experience broaden my horizon and prompted me to become an English tour guide. I have a license of Registered Nurse and a Medical interpreter. I've still worked as a nurse during the off- tourism season so that I've kept a medical back ground. There are some common thinking between Tour guide and Nurse, both jobs are required to put myself into their shoes. I'll make plans considering their physical conditions and will arrange any supports after discussing about the tour. I've already experienced to do several tours for mobility challenged clients who have intractable disease and have a difficulty for a long walking. Mobility challenged customers (cane/wheelchair) are always welcomed. I'd love to make your trip meaningful and unforgettable. Please feel free to contact with me anytime. I'm looking forward to meeting you in my tour! Arigatou!
