About Tour Guide Midori N.
Hello, welcome to my page! My name is Midori which means GREEN in Japanese. You can call me Midori or Green. I grew up and have lived all my life in Yamanashi Prefecture where Mt. Fuji is and it is only 2 hours bus riding from Tokyo.
In my spare time, I hike and play badminton. I also like spending time with my two cats in my free time.
I became a National Licensed Tour Guide in 2014, but I started working as a guide mainly in 2023. I worked for an English conversation school in Japan for 23 years and was teaching English and also helping Japanese students to become better English speakers.
I realize that teaching and guiding are similar because the essential thing in both is that I could entertain people and I can respond to their requests.
When I was in my 20s, I visited many countries. There I had locals or other tourists help me a lot, which made my time unforgettable. Therefore, as a guide, I would really like to assist your trip so that you can have a blast without inconvenience in Japan.
In addition, in my tour, I would like to talk about not only how beautiful Mt.Fuji is but also how historical and attractive it is.
If you are interested in my tour, please feel free to contact me. You can choose my fixed tour or if you wish, I can customize and make a perfect itinerary based on your requests.
Let’s make an awesome trip together at the foot of Mt. Fuji!
I am looking forward to seeing you soon.
Important
・I can customize the tour based on your request if it is necessary.
・I am not able to accept tour requests outside of Yamanashi
・I am available until 17:00 on only Thursday and Friday.

day of the tour, you can either have the tour with a different itinerary
or you can cancel the tour and get your money back.

Thank you for your kind comments. I had a wonderful time with four of you. You like nature, so I wanted to stop at the place that we didn’t plan to visit to show Autumn color. Thank you for visiting Mt. Fuji area. I hope that you can see Mt. Fuji next time.

“A short hike with Midori”
I did the shirt hike at Fuji-san yesterday with Midori, after which we went to Oishi Park. I had a great time. Minorities is knowledgeable and informative, and she's also a lot of fun. She also goes out of her way to accommodate, which was great for me because I like to stop and take a lot of pictures. I highly recommend touring with Midori. Thanks, Midori!
Midori N.
Thank you for taking the time to write a review. I’m so happy to hear that you had a great time! I think your decision to change the date because of the bad weather made the tour even more enjoyable. Thank you so much for your understanding and cooperation. I also had a wonderful day and really enjoyed talking with you. It was a pleasure spending the day together!

“Customised Mt Fuji tour”
We started the tour much earlier to avoid the tourist mass. Midori was at the agreed location 20minutes earlier. We visited 3 sites and had lunch. The tour went exceptionally smooth. She is very knowledgeable and caring. This is one highlight that will stand out in our visit to japan.
Midori N.
Thank you very much for your five-star rating and your thoughtful comments. Starting earlier, as you suggested, helped make the entire tour smooth and perfect. Although I was a bit worried about the weather, we were lucky to begin the day with a beautiful view of Mt. Fuji. Thank you as well for your interest and for listening so attentively to my explanations. I truly had a wonderful time guiding you. Again, I appreciate your kind feedback. I hope you continue to enjoy exploring Japan.

Naoya U.
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.

Born and bred in Tokyo I am still living in the suburbs of Tokyo. I spent several years in the U.S. and the UK and wanted to show international visitors around Japan in return for the hospitality I had received in foreign countries. After coming back from the UK, I obtained the qualification of the National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter. I can guide guests to every corner of Tokyo including areas off the beaten track. As a history fan I can tell you a historical episode behind the scenes. From a local perspective I can explain how we Japanese are getting along. Since I have science and technology backgrounds, I can give you a tour of scientific or technical things as well..

Sept. 1, 2026 Hi, everybody, Thank you very much for choosing me from among the many guides available. Unfortunately, I am currently undergoing treatment for cancer and, much to my regret, I am unable to accept your request. I sincerely apologize for not being able to accommodate you. I would be very grateful if you could kindly look for another guide who can assist you. Thank you very much for your kind understanding. Thank you, Masato
