About Tour Guide Ken T.
I am a bilingual local who lives in Japan and enjoys travelling myself. I don't have industry experience specific to tourism per se but do have experience welcoming/entertaining international guests visiting Japan for work. I genuinely love to help people visiting Japan have a fond memory and experience in Japan while they stay. I will do my best to cater to all different requests and needs of customers, whether it is about types of places to visit, dietary preferences/restrictions, etc.

“Highly recommended”
We visited Tokyo in April 2025 and decided that for the first day it would be best for a guide to show us a few of the 'must see' highlights and navigate the transportation system in this fabulous city. We chose Ken as our guide based on other positive reviews and are happy to say that we also had a wonderful experience. When we were planning our day with Ken, he was always prompt in our communications and was able to arrange the most efficient schedule within the time we had available (and what our legs could endure!). He was very mindful of our pace, not rushing us from one place to another and making sure we were ready to move on. He was also very helpful in taking us to a couple of stores where he knew we could get a few items we needed and to a wonderful restaurant for lunch. He knows the city really well and guided us seamlessly through the maze of subway and train connections (and 'thousands' of stairs!). Ken's English is excellent and he is a real gentleman - he even followed up with us after and offered assistance if needed for our remaining time in the city. Based on our great experience, we unreservedly recommend Ken as a guide to anyone visiting Tokyo.

Ken T.
Thank you very much for being such an accommodating guest and your kind thorough review of the experience. I really appreciate it and it means a lot to me. I am glad that you had a fun and great experience (probably a bit tiring too going through the "stairs" and crowds)! I hope that I was able to assist you even only a little bit while you started to explore and enjoy the fabulous city of Tokyo. Thank you very much!

“Great tour guide Ken! ”
Ken was a great guide, showing us the sights and helping us with all our random questions! Without him we would have not known the correct etiquette at the Shrines and Temples, and understanding the differences. His English was great and he was friendly, kind and accommodating to our needs throughout the day - taking lots of great photos of us along the way. Even got to have a sing along at the Karaoke! I would highly recommend Ken :D

“Best Tour EVER!!! ”
Ken T. was amazing with us. He was on time, very informative, knew the train system and explained everything as he went. Myself and my Son are from the states and he made us feel so welcome in Japan. If you need a tour guide, WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND KEN T.

Shin N.
Welcome to Japan! I'm Shin. I have been an English Guide in Japan more than10 years. I can guide Tokyo, Kanagawa and almost all metropolitan sightseeing and walking spots. I was born in Kobe, grown up in Osaka, and studied in Kyoto, so not only Tokyo but I also have a good knowledge of Japanese historical cities. I love talking about Japanese food & culture, walking quiet narrow streets, drinking tasty Japanese whisky, Sumo, Rugby & Sports, and Japanese mountains. I climbed Mt. Fuji 18 times with foreign guests. We enjoyed the auspicious moments of sunrising from the summit. I would like to support you to make your stay in Japan memorable and precious one. It is grateful if you refer to my proposed tour schedule, in the case you have your own interests, I am happy to tailor the tour schedule responding your requests. Please feel free to contact me. I look forward to sharing wonderful time in Japan with you. Be my guest!

Hello :) I am Macco, a licensed tour guide. I love eating and traveling, so I call myself "EATraveler". I'd like you to experience "tasty (oishi)" Japan, so my tour will be full of nice food. I was born and grew up in Osaka, and now I live in a small fishing town called Manazuru (near Hakone area) after living in Tokyo for more than 10 years. I fell in love with the beautiful scenery of the sea and mountains of Manazuru, and I really enjoy a relaxing life here. So I'd like to show you around this cozy town, which will make you feel nostalgic and relaxed. I also work as an editor & writer. My recent works are mainly books about food and drinks, such as fermented food, dried food, cocktails and bars, Japanese sake, coffee, cheese, tea, as well as agriculture and food issues. Based on this background, I'd like to offer you amazing food experiences in Japan and enjoy EATraveling together :) Looking forward to seeing you in Manazuru!

I’m so excited to have a chance to show you around my favorite spots in Kanagawa prefecture. I was born in Kanagawa. I spent my whole school life, including university, here in Kanagawa. I worked as a high school English teacher here for more than 40 years. I love Kanagawa so much. We have many interesting tourist spots, like Hakone, Kamakura, Enoshima and Yokohama. I got my tour guide license in English in 2009. I am still an English teacher. To give an interesting and impressive lesson to young high school students, I’ve learnt and gathered many kinds of information. I also have a license to teach social studies, so I have a wide range of knowledge about Japanese culture and history. I’m sure to provide you an interesting tour.
