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.

Memorable day in Hakone

Even though the weather was rainy on our second day with Keiko, we still managed to see so much. Keiko had booked tickets for us on the Romance Car a month in advance. When the weather didn’t cooperate, she rearranged our itinerary and made sure that we got to see as much as we could. The views from the ropeway were stunning, even though Mt. Fuji wasn’t visible. We really enjoyed our visit to the Hakone Open Air Museum. My family loved exploring the unique sculptures and beautiful outdoor exhibits. We also took the bullet train back to Tokyo, which was a great experience. Keiko truly went above and beyond to make sure our day was memorable, even when the weather didn’t cooperate. I highly recommend her!

Sarah, thank you for your kind review. I’m glad to hear you enjoyed the day trip to Hakone despite the bad weather. Your positive attitude and ability to focus on the good parts really helped create a fun atmosphere that we all enjoyed together. I believe that’s the key to a successful tour. I still remember the moment when I said goodbye to you at Tokyo Station. Thank you so much for choosing me as your guide!

Highly Recommend

This was our first day in Tokyo, and we couldn't have asked for a better start. Keiko was an outstanding guide. She was knowledgeable, friendly, and incredibly helpful. She packed our day with fascinating sights and shared insightful stories about Tokyo's history and Japanese culture. She also helped us learn how to use the subway so that the rest of our trip was successful. She was extremely well organized and provided us with an itinerary for the day. It was also amazing to have Keiko taking family photos for us.

Wishing you all the best and hoping to see you someday!

Wonderful Tour of Tokyo

We had a fantastic time spending the day in Tokyo with Keiko. It was a great tour for first time visitors like ourselves, with lots of nice stops and at a good pace. I traveled with my parents and would not have been able to see as much in a day on our own. Keiko met us in our hotel and we traveled to the Shinto temple Meiji Jingu. It was a wonderful place and we even saw several couples getting married in traditional dress. A highlight of the day for all of us, and a nice historical site in nature that is very worth visiting. We then went to Harajuku and Shiboya, and stopped for ramen for lunch. The afternoon was up to us and we picked the scenic overlook in the municipal building, 3D Cat, and the Godzilla street. We loved it all! We then ended our day in Odaiba which was a nice coastal area with shopping and waterfront cafes. It was a great day and so well thought out. Keiko was so informative and helpful as a guide, and she accompanied us back to our hotel at the end of the tour. It was really delightful to get to know her and talk about life in Japan, and learn about Tokyo through her. Our family spent two days with her touring and I would highly recommend booking Keiko as a guide! She is a lovely person and such an organized guide. We are glad that we worked with her and plan to book with her again on a return trip— we loved Tokyo and our time with her.
