About Tour Guide Ryoko T.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review. You and your parents have a deep appreciation for Japanese history and culture. I truly enjoyed answering your thoughtful questions, and I was especially happy to feel your genuine respect for Japan. Your kind words have encouraged me to continue learning and to guide my guests with all my heart. I sincerely hope we can meet again someday. Thank you again—it was a pleasure spending the day with your family.

Thank you very much for your wonderful review. It was my pleasure to guide you in Utsunomiya on June 24th and in Nikko on June 25th. I’m very happy to hear that the underground former quarry in Oya left a strong impression on you on the first day. I also truly enjoyed sharing many conversations about Japanese history and culture, and learning together through the comparison with Philippine culture and history. It was a very meaningful experience for me as well. I also fondly remember the chestnut cake we enjoyed together at the stone café built from Oya stone—it was delicious. Thank you again for your kind words and encouragement. I sincerely appreciate it.

Thank you very much for your wonderful review of our second day together in Nikko on June 25th. Although it was a light rainy day, I was truly delighted that you described the weather as “liquid sunshine.” I’m very happy that you were able to enjoy the misty mountains and trees in such a beautiful and positive way. I also greatly appreciate your deep interest in Japanese history and culture, and your attentive engagement with my explanations. Receiving such warm words from you, who has traveled widely and experienced many guides around the world, is a great encouragement for me. I sincerely look forward to the day we may meet again. Thank you once again from the bottom of my heart.
