About Tour Guide Kaneo U.
I’m so excited to have a chance to show you around my favorite spots in Kanagawa prefecture. I was born in Kanagawa. I spent my whole school life, including university, here in Kanagawa. I worked as a high school English teacher here for 40 years. I love Kanagawa so much. We have many interesting tourist spots, like Hakone, Kamakura, Enoshima and Yokohama.
I got my tour guide license in English in 2009. I am still an English teacher. To give an interesting and impressive lesson to young high school students, I’ve learnt and gathered many kinds of information. I also have a license to teach social studies, so I have a wide range of knowledge about Japanese culture and history. I’m sure to provide you an interesting tour.
Important
My working days change according to my another job schedule:part time high school teacher. Please check my calendar.
Tours
Yokohama, Now & Then
Only a 30-minute train ride from Tokyo, you can reach the unique cosmopolitan city of Yokohama. Yokohama has two faces: modern and classical. In this tour you can enjoy a modern life at Minato Mirai 21 and a classical one at Yamate Heights and China town.
Tokyo,Now &Then
Tokyo is a modern metropolitan city built on an ancient Edo, where Tokugawa samurai government was settled. Even now we can find old relics of ancient Edo among truly modern Tokyo streets. Asakusa, Ueno and the Imperial Palace itself are some of the examples. Let’s explore Tokyo with me and find the soul of Japan.
Hakone, Enjoy Geopark and Traditional Culture
Hakone has been boasting its beautiful nature and historical background. Many hot bathing spots, a beautiful and tranquil lake and a wild volcanic vent will welcome you. You can enjoy a gigantic view of Mt. Fuji on a fine day. You will find Hakone shrine, a check point house and an old cobbled pathway by the lake. You can also enjoy traditional local foods and wooden mosaic works.
Kamakura by the sea
A famous old town of Kamakura is also known for its beautiful beach. This area is called "Shonan ", which is one of the most popular tour spots in Japan, especially for the young people enjoying marine sports. By using Eno-den Line, which is so cute a train and runs mainly by the beach, you can enjoy both old beautiful Kamakra and beautiful modern beach spots.
Kamakura One Day Rapid Tour :Feel the soul of Samurai
Kamakura is a historical place where the first samurai government was established in 12 century. There are tens of beautiful temples and shrines in Kamakura. You can feel the soul of samurai while you are walking in serene Zen temples and beautiful shrines. I select several spots you can’t miss.
Small hiking in Kamakura to feel its ancient atomosphere
You can enjoy a small hiking in a north mountain area, where you will feel ancient atmosphere by visiting a mystic cave shrine called Zeniarai-Benten and Sasuke-Inari shrine. You can also enjoy other faomous spots, Tsurugaoka-Hachiman-gu shrine and Great Buddha.

“ Wonderful tour with Kaneo U ”
We enjoyed our tour with Kaneo San thoroughly. He was very helpful and courteous on the messages before our trip and during the tour. He let us know beforehand that there are lots of walking involved and to wear comfy shoes and attire. He would wait for us throughout the trip (we walked slowly ; ) and told us the history and interesting story about the places. Thank you Kaneo San for sharing and guiding us. Thumbs up for your tour!

“ Fun trip to Yokohama ”
We had a blast visiting Yokohama with Kaneo. He was able to get reservations for us to make our own cupola of noodles at the Cup Noodles Museum. We also had a last minute change in schedule and number of people and Kaneo was able to make the changes easily. We had so much fun!
