Hello. I'm Yoko Miyake. Please call me Yoko. I'm a licensed guide. I love travelling. I have visited all the prefectures in Japan. Though Japan has many good places to visit, I hope many foreign travellers will visit my hometown Kurashiki and enjoy their stay there. Because I was born in Kurashiki, and I have lived there since then, I know a lot about Kurashiki. Of course I can show you other good places in Okayama Prefecture and near Okayama Prefecture.
I can guide you according to your request.

We're well taken care of by Yoko and had a lovely time although the weather had been pretty lousy. She's given us interesting info, taken us to a good lunch and afternoon dessert place. It was a good experience. Thank you

We spent the day with Yoko at Naoshima art island. Yoko came very well prepared with a detailed itinerary which she had discussed with us in advance. She ensured that the trip went exactly as per her planned itinerary, and ensured that we didn’t miss a single attraction or bus ride. She handled difficult situations well (eg when a museum we had not reserved ran out of tickets she managed to convince them to accommodate a few tickets for us). She was very kind, cheerful and energetic throughout. Gave a lot of useful information and context around the art and architecture we saw. Overall, the best guide we have had in our first week in Japan. Thanks for a fantastic day.

Yoko is an excellent guide that made it easy to enjoy our day in the Okayama area without having to worrying about the planning as she customized a tour for us. We first went to Washuzan Hill to view the Seto Inland Sea and did a small hike to see the Seto Ohashi Bridge. After that we did a boat tour and later visited the Kurashiki historical area. She was very knowledgeable of the area and had a great recommendation for lunch. I have found that having a guide will make your day go more smoothly and you also get a lot more out of your travels. If you are touring the Okayama area, Yoko is a great choice!

Yoko-san went above and beyond to make sure that everyone had a good time. She is one of the best guides I’ve ever had the pleasure of dealing with. Highly recommend using her if you’re in the Okayama area!!
