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.

Tours A & B

We were a group of 5 adults that saw an unbelievable amount of Tokyo in just 2 days thanks to our excellent guide Keiko. The first day we had to ask her to slow down a bit as we were getting tired & having trouble keeping up. The second day she revised some of our transportation to make seeing all the sights a little easier. Be prepared to walk a lot, ride the subway, train, bus and taxi in order to take in as much as possible. We thoroughly enjoyed our time with her. Also, her English is excellent.

Thank you so much for your kind words. I had a wonderful time showing you around Tokyo. It makes me very happy to hear that you enjoyed the major sights. I hope your visit will be one of your favorite memories from Japan.

A lifetime in just a day exploring Tokyo.

Keiko was very professional and showed experience guiding me through the subways. We developed a rapport that bonded us through out the tour. I admired her English and humor, with vast knowledge of the history of Tokyo and an interesting update on the future of Japan. It was an experience that enlightened what Tokyo had to offer, changing my understanding completely. Keiko's tour built my confidence that I don't feel such a stranger in Japan.

Jack, thank you so much for your kind review. I truly enjoyed walking around with you, visiting the must-see spots while exchanging thoughts and ideas on a variety of topics. I was so happy to see you having a great time, actively trying new things and engaging with our culture. Moments like that are the most rewarding part of being a guide. I hope you enjoy the rest of your stay here, and I wish that all your hopes for the future come true.

Took excellent care of my parents on a short stopover tour

My parents had a short (~8 hours) evening stop in Tokyo in the middle of a 28-hour flight journey, and wanted to see a little of the city. They had never been to Japan before. Keiko took excellent care of my parents, right from patiently working with us to put together an evening itinerary for them based on their interests, energy levels, and food restrictions; welcoming them at the airport early after proactively finding out that my parents' flight arrived early; taking them around tirelessly while engaging them in conversation about culture and history; and finally seeing them all the way back to the airport even though she didn't have to. It made a huge difference to them to experience this kind of hospitality in the middle of a long and tiring journey. Thank you so much for everything!

Vishaal, thank you very much for your kind review. Your warm words truly encouraged me to continue working with care and hospitality for travelers. Your parents are very kind, pleasant, and easy to work with. Although it must have been challenging for them to walk around, as it was midnight in their local time, they always showed respect for my work and were very friendly throughout the tour. I sincerely hope that you will come back to Japan with your parents someday. When you do, I would be delighted to take you to see a beautiful Mt. Fuji.
