“Wonderful Experience with Keiko”
Our walking tour with Keiko through the market and temples was very informative, fun and enjoyable. She was kind, knowledgeable and explained everything clearly. We learned so much about these incredible areas of Tokyo. The six of us in the group strongly recommend a tour with Keiko while visiting Tokyo. Thank you Keiko.

Thank you so much for your kind review. I’m really happy that you and your group enjoyed the tour. I felt so lucky to guide such kind and cooperative people. At Tsukiji, you wandered around freely and tried lots of foods—everyone loved the dried snacks, especially the wasabi beans! At Asakusa, you made your wishes so sincerely, and I’m sure they will come true. Arigato!! You were all super kawaii!

“Half day Asakusa tour with Keiko”
We booked a second tour with Keiko, and she was able to give us more cultural information in Asakusa. In addition to learning about the Senso-Ji Temple and Shrine, we wandered amongst the laneways and learnt about foods and dress styles. It is so convenient that Keiko will come to the hotel at a pre-appointed time, and assist with travel and tickets. She took all our ideas into consideration, and was happy to pace our walk to include food and drink breaks. I can highly recommend Keiko to any group hoping to book a Tokyo guided tour.
Keiko H.
Thank you very much for your wonderful review. I was truly delighted to receive it. Asakusa has been one of Japan’s most beloved sightseeing areas throughout its long history, and I was happy to show you the iconic view of Kaminarimon Gate and the lively Nakamise shopping street. It was fun exploring so many different kinds of shops—some traditional and some trendy, wasn’t it? I hope you enjoy wonderful days in Japan, and I look forward to seeing you again in the future. Arigato gozaimashita.

“Shinjuku and Shibuya tour with Keiko”
Keiko provided a wonderful day for our group of 4. She was a fluent communicator, and a good organiser helping us to see all the main sights in Shinjuku and Shibuya. In particular, she took lots of photos, helped us buy IC passes, explained the train system, and assisted us to order food from a lunch menu. Keiko was originally an English Teacher, and this shows in her time management, cultural knowledge and her spoken Enlish. Highly recommended.
Keiko H.
Thank you very much for your kind review. I am truly delighted to know that you enjoyed my tour. We explored some of Tokyo’s most iconic modern districts—Shinjuku, Harajuku, and Shibuya. At first glance, these areas may look similar with their tall buildings and lively, bustling atmosphere. But once we step into the side streets, we can discover mysterious, historical, and surprisingly quiet pockets of the city. I was very happy to share these contrasts and experiences with you.

Hello, I was born in 1956 in Hiroshima and have lived in Tokyo for over 40 years. I have a license of “National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter”. I love outdoor activities, especially fishing and golf. I have been to CANADA for 6 months as a bank trainee and have worked for 5 years in the US at the age of my 30s. It is my pleasure to show you around in Japan. As you know, there are four seasons in Japan and you can enjoy the nature of each season. Especially in spring time, cherry blossoms in full bloom welcome you. Japan is a safe country, meals are very delicious, and you can explore Japanese great history at the spiritual places of shrines and temples. Please contact me.

Masahiro N.
Hallo zusammen! Ich heiße Masahiro, aber meine Freunde nennen mich Masa. Nach meinem Studium in Tokio habe ich von 2006 bis 2013 in Wien gelebt. 2013 bin ich endgültig nach Japan zurückgekehrt. Während meiner Zeit in Wien habe ich die deutschsprachige Welt und ihre Kultur sehr intensiv kennengelernt. Heute möchte ich eine Brücke zwischen dem deutschsprachigen Raum und Japan sein – und genau deshalb arbeite ich als Reiseleiter. Ich habe das Gefühl, dass diese Aufgabe meine Lebensaufgabe geworden ist. Für mich ist ein Guide so etwas wie ein privater Diplomat. Er verbindet Menschen aus verschiedenen Ländern und Kulturen und hilft ihnen, einander besser zu verstehen. Ich habe bereits Erfahrung darin, meine Gäste durch viele verschiedene Orte in Japan zu führen, unter anderem durch: • Tokio • Kamakura( Kanagawa) • die Region um den Fuji • Kawagoe(Saitama) • Nikko(Tochigi) • Karuizawa (Nagano) • Kanazawa(Ishikawa) • Kyoto • Osaka • Kobe • Himeji • Nagasaki …und natürlich gibt es noch viele weitere Orte zu entdecken! Ich wohne heute in der Nähe von Tokio. Deshalb sind Touren in Tokio und der Umgebung für mich besonders gut machbar. Eine Reise macht das Leben bunt! Lassen Sie Ihren Alltagsstress hinter sich und genießen Sie entspannte Momente, neue Entdeckungen und interessante Begegnungen – vielleicht sogar den einen oder anderen kleinen Kulturschock. Ich freue mich sehr darauf, Sie auf Ihrer Reise durch Japan zu begleiten! Bis bald in Japan!

Kaori S.
Kon-ni-chi-wa. Hello! I'm Kaori, having lived in Tokyo for more than 20 years since I got married to a photographer who lives here. Originally from Shizuoka prefecture which has Mt.Fuji, the highest mountain in Japan. I took 2 working-holiday-visa stays in my younger days. One is in Toronto, Canada, and another is Australia touring by motorcycle. One year respectively. I love travel both international and domestic. I myself love travel freely. That's how I love helping individual travelers like you. Love nature, gardens, trekking, greenery, also anime. My favorite is taking you to the off-the-beaten tracks where I love and sharing my seasonal favorites. I'm happy to make tailor-made tours only for you (up to 4 people) upon your request. ・Half Day as you like (up to 4 hours) : 40,000 JPY ・Full Day as you like (up to 8 hours) : 64,000 JPY ・Extra hour over 8hours : 6,000 JPY/hour I often spend multiple days with the same group to accommodate itinerary for multi days by including my seasonal favorites. I often do Mt.Fuji or Hakone tour. In many cases, the locations are mixed up between Mt.Fuji Five Lakes area and Hakone area, which are not the same place. Please refer to the map I uploaded on gallery to check the sites you are interested in. Also my blogs will help your understanding both areas - "The location difference of Mt.Fuji (Fuji Five Lakes) and Hakone". As a national government licensed guide, I've got deep knowledge of Japanese culture and history. But more than that, I really enjoy talking about the way of life with people from different cultures. I'm quite an outgoing person, ( but organized well! ), easy to get along with anybody, including small kids to teenagers. Can't wait to see you soon!
