About Tour Guide Takako T.
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 ?

“Tokyo Tour”
Ms. Takako has a very warm personality. We immediately felt comfortable with her and we could genuinely tell how much she wanted our day tour perfect for us. She took us to historical sites and cultural landmarks around Tokyo and throughout the tour, she narrated to us interesting facts and cultural insights. We are grateful to her for giving us a wonderful tour.
“Excellent Tokyo tour”
We spent 2 days with Takako and had an amazing time! She planned out the days for us and we saw everything. We also had younger kids and had to make some changes and Takako was very accommodating. She made our time in Tokyo so enjoyable. Highly recommend her as a tour guide.

Hello Sakina Happy new year! Thank you for your tour review telling that you were satisfied with the tour in Tokyo. I am very glad to have guided your nice family. Are you all well? I pray a wonderful tour in Kyoto and happiness this year for you. Give my regards to all your family members. See you again someday! Takako
“Very pleasant and amicable guide!”
We enjoyed our afternoon with Takako! We were a group of 3 adults and 3 kids. She connected well with all of us and was able to strike up amicable conversations with the kids as well as adults. She was also so patient with our 2 high energy boys. She guided us with ease along the busy parts of Tokyo including Shibuya crossing and Takeshita street. We also had some peaceful moments at Zojoji temple and Meiji shrine. We ended with eating at a restaurant she recommended and the food was great! She even gave the kids an origami gift that she made for each of them - such a sweet gesture! We will have good memories of Tokyo thanks to Takako!

I am a bilingual local who lives in Japan and enjoys travelling myself. I don't have industry experience specific to tourism per se but do have experience welcoming/entertaining international guests visiting Japan for work. I genuinely love to help people visiting Japan have a fond memory and experience in Japan while they stay. I will do my best to cater to all different requests and needs of customers, whether it is about types of places to visit, dietary preferences/restrictions, etc.

This is Yuji, Japanese creator, such as painting, illustration, cartoon, and designing for Japanese magazine & advertising. I graduated from college in the US long ago. I used to work for Japanese publishing company for travel and Information magazine. I take lots of foreign friends to many places around Tokyo as a guide. I can take you common famous places, but also I can guide you if you have a special request, such as art, anime, table tennis or something belongs to your interest. For mostly I guide you by using the common transportation. but I also use my car to take you around for a small member of group because my car is so small, mini cooper.
