Hello! My name is Ken (Kenichi), and I’m a professional tour guide with experience guiding over 1,200 foreign tourists as of September 2024.
I have worked for both Japanese and international companies in Tokyo for over 30 years, giving me deep insight into the city and its unique charm. I also love traveling and have explored many famous destinations in Japan as well as in 40+ countries worldwide.
I fully understand the challenges that many first-time travelers face when visiting Japan, especially in a busy city like Tokyo.
My goal is to provide you with a fully customized, time-efficient tour that meets your needs and preferences.
Since most travelers have limited time and want to visit as many places as possible, I carefully plan tours that highlight the best spots and the most efficient routes, ensuring a comfortable and enjoyable experience.
For added comfort and luxury, I offer the option of using a car with an experienced driver (my wife), making your tour even more convenient and stress-free.
I look forward to guiding you and helping make your visit to Japan truly memorable.
All tours can be customized for you. Send me a message with your requests!

Narita Temple & Airport Transfer: A Perfect Farewell to Japan
“Highly Recommended”
We were unsure what to do on our last day in Tokyo since we had a 4pm flight from Narita. In the end, we booked this private tour and are so happy we did. It completely took the stress out of our final day in Japan. Ken was super helpful and communicative in setting everything up, picked us up from our hotel, and took us out to see Narita Temple, a temple with over a thousand years of history. The temple grounds are quite vast, with many structures, and there is also a beautiful Japanese garden with a large pond. Ken's knowledge of the area (and his excellent English) made the experience even more enjoyable. Sachie, our driver, was incredibly kind and ensured a smooth and safe journey throughout the tour. When the tour was over, we were dropped off at our terminal for a stress-free, no-hassle airport commute! Overall, one hundred percent recommended. Thank you, Ken and Sachie, for a perfect end to our vacation!

Dear Ross, Thank you so much for taking the time to leave such a wonderful review! It was truly a pleasure to guide you on your final day in Japan. I’m delighted to hear that the tour to Narita-san Shinsho-ji Temple and the seamless transfer to Narita Airport made your last day stress-free and enjoyable. Exploring the temple’s rich history and tranquil gardens with you was a highlight of the day for me as well. I’m so glad you found the experience memorable and that my insights added value to your visit. Sachie and I are thrilled to know that you appreciated the smooth journey and safe drop-off at the airport. Your kind words mean so much to us, and they inspire us to continue providing the best possible service for our guests. Thank you again for choosing our tour as the perfect conclusion to your vacation. If you ever return to Japan, we would be delighted to guide you again. Wishing you many more wonderful travels ahead! Warm regards, Ken and Sachie
