About Tour Guide Masatoshi Y.

I am familiar with Japanese history. With a deep understanding of Japan's rich and fascinating past, I bring history to life with captivating stories and insights. I am also interested in Buddhism. Knowledgeable in Buddhist traditions and teachings, I can provide a thorough understanding of this influential aspect of Japanese culture. As a Zen enthusiast, I can guide you through a serene and authentic Zen meditation experience, enhancing your spiritual journey.

On the other hand, I love ramen, and I can introduce you to some of the best soba and ramen restaurants, ensuring you enjoy the most delicious and authentic flavors Japan has to offer.

Join me for an unforgettable journey through Japan's historical and spiritual landmarks, accompanied by delightful culinary experiences!

“Resourseful, friendly, and great energy!”

Masa is amazing. He went out of his way to help us feel comfortable like preparing a picnic, choosing a quiet place with a great view, and taking us to places that were mostlty visited by locals. He always did his best to accomodate our needs and was very efficient driving. It felt like doing a tour with a friend who we knew from many years ago. We hope to come back to Japan and do another tour with him <3

Jose and Franzi are very friendly and kind people. I had a very good time with them. We had a lot of fun as if we were friends. It was my first time playing Yu-Gi-Oh cards with my clients. Though I was their guide, they taught me a lot and expanded my world. I have a new dream of going to Austria. Thank you and see you again.

“Bird Watching Tour in Shiga Kogen”

Masatoshi put a birding tour together for us. We hiked early morning through beautiful forests which still had fall colors. We hiked along the river enjoying the rushing streams and rapids along the way. Our timing here and on the Northern Island of Hokkaido was unfortunately between migrating periods so we saw some birds but not the number of species we had hoped for. Masatoshi put together an excellent tour. We’d love to return and have him as our guide again! He is the perfect guide. He is informative and calm knowing when to be quiet and very caring We would not hesitate recommending him for your tour guide in the Nagano area! He made our stay here memorable!

Dear Dick and Roach, thank you from the bottom of my heart for finding me on Go with Guide. I am very happy to have supported your trip in Nagano. What a kind person you are to give me such good feedback even though we didn't see as many birds as I had expected. I'm looking forward to seeing you again. I hope you and Roach stay healthy and happy forever. Thank you so much. P.S. I am writing this while listening to Simon & Garfunkel's “The sound of silence” which you taught me.
