About Tour Guide Yukiko F.
I'm Yukiko Fujii. I'm a Licensed Tour Guide and a Registered Nurse. I've worked as a guide since 2015. Thanks to increasing repeat, referred and new clients, tour guide is my main job. I've done virtual experience on Amazon and company events during the last 3 years pandemic. Since I am one of a few guides who tried virtual tour in Tokyo during pandemic, it was a challenging, but it was definitely a great step and enhanced my guiding skills.
I was born and raised in Tokyo. I am a mother so that I'd be glad to welcome families with young children as well.
I used to teach Japanese cultures to elementary students from Kindergarten to Grade 6 at local and private elementary schools when I lived in Canada, United states, and New Zealand. My happiest moments with these children were when they look forward to another lesson every week. All lessons were customized and prepared after discussing with each classroom teacher. It was a challenging job, but this experience broaden my horizon and prompted me to become an English tour guide.
I have a license of Registered Nurse and a Medical interpreter. I've still worked as a nurse during the off- tourism season so that I've kept a medical back ground. There are some common thinking between Tour guide and Nurse, both jobs are required to put myself into their shoes. I'll make plans considering their physical conditions and will arrange any supports after discussing about the tour. I've already experienced to do several tours for mobility challenged clients who have intractable disease and have a difficulty for a long walking. Mobility challenged customers (cane/wheelchair) are always welcomed.
I'd love to make your trip meaningful and unforgettable. Please feel free to contact with me anytime.
I'm looking forward to meeting you in my tour! Arigatou!

“Food allergy safe, fun, informative”
Yukiko made sure that our child was able to enjoy an authentic experience in Tokyo. We enjoyed a family lunch and a visit to the palace.

I am glad to hear that your daughter enjoyed to have an authentic meal without concerning about food allergy on that day as well as visiting the Palace and Buddhist Temple. Domo Arigatou! Enjoy your trip!

“Wonderful experience ”
Yukiko was so kind and easy to talk to. She took us on an excellent tour. She knew a lot about the anime which was a highlight for my daughter. We got to see different parts of Tokyo that we would not have a chance to see. Her English is excellent. I would recommend Yukiko to anyone visiting Tokyo especially if you like anime.
Yukiko F.
Thank you for a wonderful review! It was a great meeting and had an enjoyable time with your family. Japan has so many aspects, attractive spots, history and tradition. The history of anime is also long. I am glad to hear that it was a highlight for her. Thank you very much! Domo Arigatou!

“Initial D tour”
Yukiko was an excellent guide. She planned our trip to Shibukawa for our grandson and it was a perfect tour for him. Yukiko was in constant communication with us in the planning and we could not have had a better guide for the day.
Yukiko F.
It was a pleasure to meet you and do Initial D Tour in Gunma. It just takes 1 hour by bullet train from Tokyo to Gunma. I am glad to share some other beautiful aspects of Japan such as beautiful nature, rich traditional culture, Arts and crafts, Onsen, Anime and more. We visited so many places based on your requests in a day. Thank you once again! Domo Arigatou Gozaimashita!

Hi, I'm Ritsuko, a national licensed tour guide. I was born and raised in Tokyo. As Tokyo is a city of many faces, I hope you will discover your hidden gems during the tour. I love to wander around the shops and places downtown and one of my hobbies is to find daily-use products made in Japan. So I can select unique souvenirs for you within your budget! I am football-mad and have been to every FIFA World Cup except one tournament since 1998. I also love to go island hopping in Asia. That's why I have been to over 30 countries. Wherever I went, people were so kind to me. So, it's my turn. I will do my best to make your tour a memorable one! Hope to hear from you soon.
