Hello! I’m Lily.
I am a government certified tour guide. I have experienced more than 100 customized tours starting from March 2024 and have been receiving 5-star reviews on popular travel booking sites from over 90% of my guests.
I love Japanese food(eating and cooking!), cultures such as traditional arts and crafts, and so much more! I love exploring towns small or big to look for hidden gems and can't wait to share them with you!
I was born and raised in Tokyo for over 40 years with a few childhood years in the US. I am a mom of two boys and have work experience in the Japanese Education industry as a teacher and a public relations professional.
I am proud to be able to introduce the charms of Japan from multiple perspectives based on my experience of interacting with people from many different nationalities.
I am happy to tailor an original plan or to arrange your bucket list advancing it to a better option.
I’m looking forward to guiding and sharing the excitement of Japan!!
All tours can be customized for you. Send me a message with your requests!

“Lily Rocks”
We spent a wonderful day with Lily, a very kind and easy going person who was very knowledgeable, incredibly kind and such a pleasure to be with. For one of us it was the first time in Tokyo and Japan and she did a great job showing us around the city to some more traveled and popular places as well as some less known/less touristy places. She also introduced us to and helped us become familiar very quickly with the amazing transportation system. Her English is impeccable, as good as any native speaker and that for sure made our day even easier and more enjoyable. We would definitely love to tour with her agiain.

“Fabulous Day with Lilly in Tokyo”
We had the pleasure of spending a full day with Lily -- our exceptional tour guide in Tokyo, and the experience was nothing short of fabulous. From the moment we met her, she was personable and engaging, making us feel comfortable and excited about the day's adventures. Her knowledge of Tokyo's top spots was impressive, and she ensured we didn't miss any of the city's must-see attractions. Whether it was the bustling markets, beautiful shrines and temples, or the vibrant atmosphere of Asakusa, she guided us with expertise and enthusiasm. We were lucky to visit during cherry blossom season and Lily brought us to a beautiful area of the Imperial Palace gardens opened only one week per year. That was a once-in-a-life time experience that we would not have known to do but for her! What truly set her apart was her ability to find hidden gems for dining. She introduced us to some fantastic local eateries that we would never have discovered on our own, each offering delicious food and a unique atmosphere. Her fun and lively personality made the day enjoyable and memorable. She was attentive to our interests and tailored the tour to suit our preferences, ensuring we had a personalized experience. Overall, Lily made our visit to Tokyo unforgettable, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking to explore the city with a knowledgeable and delightful companion. Thank you for an amazing day!
