Hello! I am Takako Takata. I was born in Kyoto and grew up in other several districts in Japan
where I was attracted by each place's feature. I started the tour guiding in 2009 in which I introduce interesting and unique spots to tourists. I love to share the marvelous time and moment with people through tours. In Japanese, we have a wonderful phrase expressing such moment and we call it "Ichigo Ichie". It means we have to treasure every encounter, a once-in-
a-lifetime-encounter that is , as it may not recur again. This word came from the spirit of tea ceremony. Anyway, let us enjoy extraordinary tours in Tokyo together, shall we ?
As for Sunday, basically I am unavailable but in the case I will.
Thanks

“Very Accommodating, Kind, and Polite ”
Takako is a very polite and accommodating tour guide. She speaks English very well and easy to understand. She customized our tour to our preferences and locations too. She also wrote a letter in kanji for me and translated quickly and accurately. Would 100% book again.

(110 reviews)Hello Brendon ! Are you all well? Thank you for your quick review. I am very glad to have spent a wonderful time with you . I was honored to have translated your hope in Japanese and written it on a wooden votive tablet of Meiji Jingu Shrne. I will keep my fingers crossed that your hope would come true. See you again! Takako
“Great time despite the rain”
Unfortunately the rain got the best of our tour, but Takako was so accommodating to shift the itinerary around and take us to different shopping spots so the day wasn’t a total waste. Takako was so sweet and very knowledgeable about Tokyo. She was dedicated to ensuring we were able to see as much as possible. We loved spending our day with Takako, despite the rain!

(110 reviews)Hello Good day ! Thank you for your reviews. In the afternoon, we had heavy rain suddenly, which prevented us from going the tour.unfortunately. But in the shopping districts, I was very glad to spare the enough time to visiting many shops as much as you like and you could find the satisfied goods. I hope you have a happy time in Tokyo by going through subways. See you again someday! Thanks Takako
“Excellent start to our Tokyo visit”
Takako was so pleasant & helpful. She prepared an excellent itinerary for us as our introduction to Tokyo. We learnt so much from her in terms of the city’s history, special places of interest and even some over city viewing points. Well done Takako. I highly recommend you to other visitors to your city.
