About Tour Guide Marie G.
Hi everyone,
I'm Marie, originally from France.
Ever since I was a child I've felt a strong connection and attraction to Japan, and it has been a significant part of my life through various forms and activities like Zen meditation, Sumie, being a member of Franco-Japanese associations.
In 2018, after over 15 years working as a Project Manager in Telecom, I completely changed my life by moving to Japan with new professional and personal projects. Since then, living in Tokyo, I've discovered amazing spots, hidden treasures, and fascinating stories that make this city truly special!
I enjoy planning every detail of your Tokyo visit (as a good project manager would!) to ensure it's filled with excitement and discovery.
I speak French, English, and conversational Japanese, and I bring a lot of positive energy.
Do not hesitate to contact me if you would like a more personalized tour and let's uncover Tokyo's secrets together!
Looking forward to meeting you soon!
Marie

Bonjour à tous !
Je m'appelle Marie et depuis petite j'a toujours été attirée par le Japon, présent dans ma vie à travers diverses formes et activités telles que la méditation zen, le sumie, des associations franco-japonaise.
En 2018, après plus de 15 ans comme chef de projet dans les télécoms, je change complètement de vie et m'installe au Japon avec de nouveaux projets professionnels et personnels.
Depuis que je vis à Tokyo, j'ai découvert des endroits extraordinaires, des trésors cachés et des histoires fascinantes qui rendent de cette ville unique !
J'adore planifier chaque détail de votre visite à Tokyo (comme tout bon chef de projet !) pour m'assurer qu'elle soit remplie de belles découvertes. Je parle français, anglais et un japonais conversationnel, et je suis pleine d'énergie positive.
N'hésitez pas à me contacter si vous souhaitez un tour personnalisé et explorons ensemble les secrets de Tokyo !
Au plaisir de vous rencontrer bientôt !
Marie

Marie is a marvellous guide with superb attention to detail. Correspondence prior to tour was informative. The tour itself was just brilliant. Marie has a lot of knowledge and provides a really unique and insightful experience. And she's really delightful company.
