About Tour Guide Keiko T.
Hello. I am Keiko, a nationally licensed tour guide for English-speaking tourists. I love traveling to new places, experiencing different cultures, and meeting new people. When I was young, I embarked on a long journey to explore more about my life. I settled in a small town in Illinois, USA, enjoying a new life while studying at the state university, and then moved to Florida to work for a while.
After coming back to Japan, I have been working in downtown Tokyo since 2008, mainly as a translator and sometimes as an interpreter in various fields, including central government offices, TV stations, and a university. Seeing the increased opportunities around the Tokyo Olympics 2020, I transitioned into the tourism industry and am currently working as a tour guide, basically giving day tours of downtown Tokyo, Fuji & Hakone, Kamakura and Nikko.
I love meeting people from different backgrounds, talking with them, and learning new things. That's why I enjoy hosting guests from abroad who want to explore Japan. Many local people helped me during my journey, and now it's time for me to give back. Come and meet me here; I will show you around amazing places in Japan.

Keiko T.
Sheela, thank you so much for your kind review. I truly enjoyed showing you around. Since you are so passionate about Japanese culture, spent so much time planning your trip, and were looking forward to seeing a Kabuki play, I totally understood how disappointed you were when you found out that single-act tickets you were looking forward to were unavailable. It was such a stroke of luck that we could find regular tickets as an alternative. I was so glad to see you so happy to fulfill your dream!

“Keiko Was a Joy! ”
My mom and I had the best time with Keiko on our private tour! We weren’t totally sure what we wanted to see, so I gave her a few ideas and she put together a great itinerary. She was super mindful to make sure we were okay with walking, she really helped us navigate the train, and we got to see so much in our time together. She took us places that felt like only locals would know about which made the tour extra special. I so grateful for her time and would highly recommend her to anyone! Thanks Keiko!
Keiko T.
Lauren, thank you so much for your kind review. I’m delighted to hear that you enjoyed the tour with me. It was truly a pleasure showing you around and chatting with you and your mother on various topics. I’m sure your trip to Japan was a memorable one, and I hope the time we spent together will be one of those happy memories.

“Very good guide!”
We spent 1 1/2 days touring Tokyo with Keiko. Everything was well paced and informative. She was very conscientious of our limitations and very patent! We adjusted the itinerary to see what we wanted and it was perfect! Keiko even walked us through the Central train station so we would know how to take the bullet train to Kyoto later in our trip.
Keiko T.
Thank you for your kind review. I’m glad to hear that you enjoyed the tour with me. I also had a great time with both of you. I hope you are continuing to have a wonderful trip, and that the rest of your stay in Japan will be just as memorable.

Welcome to Japan! My name is Chiaki. I’m a government licensed guide interpreter, a wife and mother of two grown-up children. I’ve been living in Tokyo for 30 years so I know the area well. If you don’t want to miss popular “must see” places, wish to eat a variety of Japanese popular and delicious food, have particular interest in Japanese theatrical arts, architectures, gardens, tea ceremony and “kawaii” characters, or are tired of tourist spots and like to see the real life of people in Japan, I can help you. My goal is to help you to make your stay in Japan as memorable and fulfilling as possible. If I can serve you to make your special trip more special, it will be my pleasure.

Hi, I'm Nobuo. Please call me "Nob" or "Noby". I am a national certified English tour guide. I became a tour guide, after working for a foreign company for over a quarter century. I am interested in the Edo (the old name of Tokyo) culture. And I also join volunteer groups which are "the Edo-Tokyo Museum" and "the Imperial Palace East Gardens", which used to be the Edo Castle. You will learn the present Japanese culture, history, the Japanese way of thinking, and a Japanese sense of beauty based on the Edo culture by joying the tour. I am sure that I can provide you with the most impressive tour. I hope you enjoy your stay in Japan. I'm looking forward to seeing you soon!
