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’m looking forward to guiding and sharing the excitement of Japan!!

The Delight of Touring with Lily

Tom and I were so fortunate to have Lily guide us in Tokyo for a full day and a following half day. From the moment we met her we knew that we were in exceptionally competent hands. Not only did she take us to the "must see" Tokyo icons but also we were introduced to behind-the-scenes Japanese life in Tokyo. We came away feeling that our Tokyo experience was genuinely special and fun. Lily is an absolute 5 STAR guide! Lucy & Tom, Rancho Santa Fe, CA

Dear Lucy and Tom, Arigatou & Thank you for the great review! It was my pleasure to meet you all. In two days, we have experienced the highlights of Tokyo and a part of the Japanese local life! You both were wonderful people to spend time with and was exciting for me. I am truly happy to have helped make your trip an enjoyable and memorable one. If you ever plan to revisit, I’m more than happy to serve you again. Best regards, Lily

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!
