About Tour Guide Keiko H.
HI. I am Keiko. I'm a National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter - Your local tour guide.I was born in Tokyo and studied Japanese history in the University. I used to work as a junior high school English teacher for over 30 years . So I know about Tokyo a lot. One of my hobbies is Japanese history and finding similarities with world history is very interesting and so much fun for me.
Tokyo is an attractive city where you can both experience the marriage of both traditional and modern culture. I'd be more than happy to share with you my rich knowledge and experience. I'll be grateful to arrange a tour for you according to your preferences. I'm looking forward to having a good time with you and I hope to be a part of your stay here in Japan.

4 hours is all you need to enjoy Tokyo. Choose two places from a selection of must-see attractions below. If you've chosen sites close to each other, you may be able to visit another spot. If you want to go somewhere which is not on the list, feel free to ask and I'll make the arrangements for you.
Asakusa, Meiji Shinto Shrine,Shibuya
These places are must-see places for the first time visitors . They show you the essence of Tokyo: modern and traditional. You’ll begin the tour from the traditional northern part of Tokyo which is Asakusa. And then it ends at the southern modern part of Tokyo called Harajuku and Shibuya.

If you love to walk, come and join us as we explore shrines and temples characterized with their blissful and serene atmosphere. Plus, old ruins of townhouses that survived the last war. Enjoy the calmness and that perfect instagram moment.

“Amazing tour!”
Keiko was an excellent tour guide. She did a customized tour for us as we wanted to see some things off the beaten path but also some more touristy areas. She delivered! We had a 6 hour tour and we covered many cool areas and learned so much! I highly recommend a tour with Keiko.

Thank you very much for your wonderful review of my tour. I am glad you enjoyed my tour. I was happy to show you both traditional places such as Asakusa & Ueno and modern area like Shibuya. Especially it was my pleasure to share a great time with you at Yanaka. Lunch was OISHII, wasn't it? I wish your great days in Japan. Arigato!!

“Excellent Guide”
Keiko was on time to our tour, which is something I value greatly. She detailed the history on exhibits we passed by as well as relevant things we visited during the tour. Would book again.

Thank you very much for your wonderful review of my tour. We experienced both modern and traditional Japanese culture today such as anime and KAWAII maids at Akiba, swords and sumo at Ryogoku and a temple and Tokyo Sky Tree at Asakusa. The Illuminated tower looked like a jewelry in the sky. I hope your great autumn days in Japan.

“A Most Enjoyable Guide and Tour”
Highly recommend Keiko’s tour of Ueno Park and Yanaka. It was the perfect blend of history, the serenity of the shrines and temples, art, and food. Keiko was very responsive, flexible, and informative. We really enjoyed spending time with her.

Thank you very much for your wonderful review of my tour. Fortunately, it was a fine weather and a perfect day for walking around Ueno Park and Yanaka area. There, we could experience the traditional atmosphere of Japan such as Toshogu-shrine with old stone lanterns, Hanazono Inari shrine with many red-tori-gates and OISHII typical Japanese style lunch in an old town house...etc. I hope you will enjoy Japan as much as possible. ARIGATO!!

Hello everyone! I was born and raised in Kawagoe, a historic city next to Tokyo in Saitama. Two years ago, I graduated from a university in Japan, and now I work as a tour guide and study abroad support advisor. Three years ago, I had the opportunity to study abroad in Vancouver, Canada. During my time there, I was warmly welcomed by the locals, and I discovered the joy of immersing myself in a new culture and daily life. I also learned the value and excitement of connecting with people from different backgrounds. That’s why I now want to be the one to support others. As a guide, I aim to make your journey even more special! Through Go with Guide, I want to offer more than just the typical sightseeing experience—I want to provide unique opportunities for you to dive deeper into Japan’s rich culture. I am committed to creating a safe, thoughtful, and enjoyable experience for everyone. Let’s not just visit Japan—let’s feel it. Join me on an unforgettable journey, and together, let’s embrace the true beauty of Japan! I look forward to meeting you!

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.
