About Tour Guide Shunta N.
Hello everyone!
I was born and raised in Kawagoe, a charming historic city located just next to Tokyo in Saitama Prefecture. Two years ago, I graduated from university here in Japan, and I now work as both a tour guide and a study abroad support advisor.
Three years ago, I had the life-changing opportunity to study abroad in Vancouver, Canada. The warmth and hospitality of the locals left a deep impression on me. I discovered the joy of immersing myself in a new culture and way of life, and I truly came to appreciate the beauty of connecting with people from diverse backgrounds.
Now, I want to be the one offering that kind of experience to others. As your guide, my goal is to make your journey in Japan truly special.
Through GoWithGuide, I strive to go beyond typical sightseeing—I want to create meaningful opportunities for you to engage with Japan’s rich culture and traditions on a deeper level.
I’m committed to providing a safe, thoughtful, and unforgettable experience for every guest.
Let’s not just visit Japan—let’s feel Japan.
Join me on this unique journey, and together, let’s discover the heart and soul of this incredible country.
I look forward to meeting you soon!
Depending on your tour and needs, my teammates Kei and Ethan may also join to help ensure the best experience.

“Unforgettable night.”
While I may not have met Shunta directly he did send me Teppei on his behalf. I've had a blast eating and drinking with Teppei! It was my first time trying authentic Japanese cuisine in izakaya's, bars and the classic takoyaki stand. Trying out new food along side with a local person was so much fun!
Shunta N.
I’m so glad to hear you had a great time! I am happy to know you enjoyed the food and had fun exploring with Teppei. If you ever come back to Japan, please reach out us. Teppei and I will be more than happy to support you in any way we can!

“Excellent Choice”
We were very pleased with the way Shunta made accommodations for us. My husband has mobility limitations so the usual modes of transportation were not an option. His English is excellent and easy to understand. His vocabulary is superb. He was very good at explaining the history and meaning of various sites. Highly recommend.

Hi Susan, Thank you very much for your kind words! I’m so happy that we could enjoy the beautiful azaleas together with you and your husband. Wishing you all the best, and hope to see you again someday!

“Great tours of Tokyo and Hiroshima ”
Shunta organised an interesting and varied itinerary for a full day guided tour of Tokyo. We were so impressed that we booked him again to accompany us on a day trip to Hiroshima - also highly recommended. Shunta's English is fluent and was born and raised in Tokyo so has great knowledge of local history and culture. Friendly, polite and easy-going, fun to be around. Highly recommended.

Hi Luke and George. Thank you so much for the wonderful review and for spending two amazing days with me and Kei in Tokyo and Hiroshima! It was truly a pleasure guiding you both. I’m already looking forward to the day we meet again. hopefully in Australia next time, with some fishing and a helicopter ride on the schedule!

My Name is Naoya. I was born in Tokyo in 1952. After my graduation from Keio University, I joined a Japanese bank. Mainly I was assigned international business and stayed in London for three years. At the age of 52, I moved to a Japanese manufacturer company and had worked for 11 years. As a personnel manager, I engaged in hiring Indian graduates. Then for two years, I went to Tashkent in Uzbekistan as a JICA senior volunteer. I taught "corporate finance" at Tashkent Financial Institute in English. I got the guide license in 2017, After I came back to Tokyo, I am working as a volunteer guide, especially in Shinjuku. I hope to create special and deep tours in which tourists are interested but by now they were not able to gain access to. For example; Visit to various Universities, Visit to narrow streets in Tokyo, Visit to feel Edo (Now and Then) My hobby is playing the guitar. I hope we are in peace through music. I am also interested in Art, History and cooking. My major subject is economics and finance.

Hi, I'm Dai, a national licensed tour guide for people from all over the world. I’m crazy about traveling around the world. I’ve backpacked in over 150 countries. So I'm proud of my traveling skills, flexibility and patience that I've ever experienced through my world-traveling. I do believe one of the most important thing for travelers is to " EXPERIENCE ", such as doing something new, extraordinary and something you've never done before. Also, I used to work at a hostel in Asakusa, so I'm quite familiar with Asakusa area. I'd love to help international tourists enjoy their stay in Japan. You can arrange your own itinerary as you like. Please feel free to contact me anytime, if you have any questions. I'm really looking forward to seeing YOU soon. Thank YOU.

Hello. Thank you for your interest in Japan. I am a tour guide living in central Tokyo area. My hobby is travel, taking photos, watching sports, etc. I have visited more than thirty countries on business or vacation. While I was in overseas countries, I encountered a lot of troubles. But many people at my travel destination kindly helped me and I could do what I wanted to do. To do something in return for their kindness, I became a tour guide. As a guide, I have offered tours for more than hundreds of tourists all over the world. Each tourist has the different style of sightseeing. Through experience, I have got better skills to arrange the tour flexibly. Your stay in Japan must be very important moment. I would like to show you unique aspects of Japan. It is possible to create a customized tour for you to meet your requests. Please tell me what kind of sightseeing you would like to enjoy. Feel free to contact me.
