Hi, I'm Yoko, a National License Tour Guide&International Kikisake-shi.
I speak with an American accent, 'cause I lived in Seattle, Washington for six years in my childhood(3-9 years old). My tours might be better with people who LOVE TO WALK, have STAMINA and keen to learn about the culture.
Now I live within a walking distance from Ueno Park, Tokyo, so I see a lot of International tourists walking around in my neighborhood every day.
(PLEASE CHECK EACH TOUR. The expenses are spelled out, too.)
"Tokyo is larger than we thought and the transportations are so complicated," Swedish guys told me. I'm here to help you. I know well about Tokyo, Yokohama, Yamanashi etc. and I travel most of the parts of Japan.
I would appreciate if you could see more sightseeing spots with me as your guide and enjoy your stay.
I love to answer your questions, even though I became nearly breathless when I was with American guests, a family of three, curiously asking me questions after questions:-)
I appreciated their interest in Japan very much.
I also go mountain trekking for nearly thirty years. I've been to the summit of Mt. Fuji and Mt. Kitadake three times. Talking about Mt. Takao, maybe more than fifty times.
I hope we can enjoy the beautiful view together.
I'm looking forward to seeing you soon and having a good time together.
Hope to hearing from you soon.
It will be first booked, first served basis, but could you make inquiries before booking?
If you're interested in TOKYO, MOUNT FUJI, or NIKKO, please CHECK the TOURS before you make inquiries.
(Some transportation for Mount Fuji or Nikko might be fully booked if you do last minute booking.)
I could also guide KYOTO, HIMEJI etc. if you will cover my transportation fare round trip from Tokyo.
If you'd like a car chartered, please check the PRIVATE CARS TOUR by yourself.
It's concerned with your budget, so I'm afraid I cannot make arrangements for that, but I will be happy to guide you with the car you chartered.
It's impossible to make quotes without knowing the spots you would like to visit.
Nikko and Mount Fuji are approximately two hours on Limited Express from Shinjuku or Asakusa.
Tokyo is not a compact city, but a huge one.
If you have difficulties with stairs, please tell me in your message. Thank you.

We had a great first day with Yoko in Tokyo. She was very friendly, on time, very helpfull. We learned how to use the metro system and Yoko showed us so many places in one day. She answered all of our questions , we learned a lot. She is the best !!!
I appreciate your great review, Mr. Vo. We enjoyed the highlights of Tokyo together. Meiji JIngu Shrine was much nicer with the Shigosan season and Chrysanthemums. It was really nice talking to both you and your amazing wife. I hope you could enjoy your cruise around Japan, too. I wish you will come to Japan soon again. Thank you again!!

highly recommendable perfect guide, reliable, picked us up at our hotel which she checked out before our arrival, very energetic two days program, took us to great places, good mixture of shrines/temples, parks and gardens, excellent restaurants for lunch, local shopping streets with few tourists, we used trains and subway, we had a great time with here
I appreciate your great review, Silvia san. I enjoy the two days with you and Bruno san. We enjoyed great sushi lunch at an extremely popular restaurant the first day and eel and yakitori lunch on the second day. We covered a lot during the two days because both of you were so fit and didn't complain about walking a lot. I hope your dogsitter liked the souvenirs we found together. Please come again to see the Cherry blossoms soon. Please enjoy the Kinmokusei aroma till then. Thank you again, Yoko

Yoko is a great tour guide. She was flexible, listen to what we wanted to see and did the tour efficiently, Her English is excellent because she spent many years in USA. We did Kamakura and Yokohama in one day from Tokyo. Started at 9 am and we were home by 5. She went out of her way to reserve a Chinese restaurant for us. And gave us advice about shopping in Ginza. Can’t go wrong with Yoko.
I appreciate your review so much, Jacqueline san. We got back to your hotel a little pass 5 but we could cover a lot in a day because both of you could walk and do stairs without troubles. We visited the Great Buddha, Hasedera Temple, soba lunch, Cup Noodle Museum, Park overlooking Yokohama Harbor and Chinatown. It was nice seeing you having different ice creams. Actually the booking was done by the Concierge but there are many Chinese restaurants in Tokyo too so please check them the next time you come in the future. It was nice talking and meeting both of you. Thank you again, Yoko

I went on a tour with my wife and our 8 year old daughter. Yoko was great and showed us more than we could have seen on our own. It was a very full 8 hours and we were happy and exhausted by the end. Thanks Yoko!!
Thank you so much for a nice review, Christopher san. It was a pleasant day to enjoy the tea ceremony, Okonomiyaki lunch, view from Marunouchi Building, East Gardens of Imperial Palace and Asakusa. I hope you, your wife and Chloe will enjoy Kyoto too. Maybe the gates that you asked about is the Torii Gates of Fushimi Inari Shrine. You can enjoy some street foods near Kiyomizu Temple. Please have fun!!
