About Tour Guide Junko N.
Hi, I am Junko, a national licensed tour guide in English.
I can also speak Italian to have a normal conversation.
I was born and raised in Tokyo so I could say that I know Tokyo inside out. I believe Tokyo is a beautiful and traditional city as well as a modern and exciting city. In addition to famous tourist sites, there remain many attractions that are not well known among tourists.
I have had experiences of guiding foreign tourists as a volunteer guide for several years before becoming a licensed tour guide. So I can give you useful suggestions in traveling Japan. I truly like meeting people from different countries and cultures and sharing the fun of discovering Tokyo and its vicinity.
I can always tailor the tour to fit your interests and prepare an itinerary so that your stay will be unforgettable.
Why don’t you explore Tokyo with me? Please feel free to contact me at any time! I am looking forward to meeting you in Tokyo.

“Mezza giornata a Tokyo e poi trasferimento a Narita”
Oggi è il nostro ultimo giorno a Tokyo, puntualissima come sempre Junko ci aspetta nella lobby del nostro albergo. Junko ha organizzato la nostra ultima visita a Tokyo e il trasferimento VIP all'aeroporto di Narita che dista circa un ora. Junko è una guida competente che parla un buon italiano, con lei nei giorni precedenti abbiamo fatto altre visite a Tokyo, tutto è sempre andato benissimo. Come sempre ci organizza tutto in modo perfetto non tralasciando niente al caso. Il programma del mattino è la visita alla torre di Tokyo per goderci un bellissimo panorama e poi trasferimento all'aeroporto. In perfetto orario arriva la vettura da lei riservata per portarci all'aeroporto, un trasferimento da VIP. Lei ci accompagna fino all'aeroporto, ci aiuta a trovare il banco per il check-in e solo quando è sicura che tutto è a posto ci salutiamo. Junko ci fa una grande sorpresa regalandoci dei dolci sempre tipici di Tokyo, salutarci è stato per noi e pensiamo per lei un momento di grande commozione; quando si passano assieme dei giorni stupendi è sempre difficile salutarsi. Grazie Junko per aver organizzato i nostri tour, risposto alle nostre innumerevoli curiosità, spiegato la storia Giapponese, tutto in modo molto competente e preciso. Sarai sempre nei nostri ricordi

Grazie per tutti i complimenti. Come guida, non potrei essere più felice di ricevere tali complimenti solo per aver fatto ciò che meritavo come guida. Grazie mille per avermi affidato il vostro prezioso tempo durante il vostro soggiorno di quattro giorni a Tokyo. Junko

“Kamakura, a un ora da Tokyo”
Ci incontriamo ancora con Junko nella lobby del nostro albergo, come sempre puntualissima. Oggi tramite il metrò e poi il treno ci rechiamo a Kamakura. Il programma per la giornata che Junko ci ha preparato è molto fitto ma come le altre volte riusciamo a fare tutto con delle parti non previste. Junko parla un buon l'italiano, conosce molto bene la storia Giapponese e ci porta alla scoperta di posti meravigliosi. Questo non è il primo tour che facciamo con lei, quindi la conosciamo bene e lei conosce noi e per pranzo ci prepara una sorpresa in un ristorante particolare che lei aveva già riservato per noi. Nei precedenti tour avevamo espresso un desiderio per un pranzo particolare e lei per questa giornata ha saputo accontentarci. Kamakura una città stupenda con dei luoghi pieni di interesse che Junko ci ha fatto visitare dandoci dei ragguagli sulla sua storia e rispondendo in modo competente alle nostre domande. Junko ha saputo organizzare la giornata in modo professionale e competente, in ogni momento controllava che non ci perdessimo nella folla quando percorrevamo le viuzze pedonali e trovava sempre il momento giusto per istruirci sulla storia dei luoghi che visitavamo. Grazie Junko per aver reso indimenticabile la nostra giornata a Kamakura.

Grazie per la splendida recensione. È stato un onore portarvi nel mio posto preferito, Kamakura. Kamakura è una città affascinante con molta storia, tra cui molti santuari e templi, e una natura ricca come il mare e le montagne. Nei vicoli dove passano gli abitanti del luogo, le piante e i fiori sono ben curati e sono felice di aver potuto far conoscere ai giapponesi le quattro stagioni e il loro modo di vivere. Junko

“Un altro giorno con Junko dopo la nostra crociera”
Ci troviamo come sempre nella lobby del nostro albergo, Junko arriva puntuale come l'ultima volta. Inizia un nuovo Tour di mezza giornata, questo è la seconda volta nella nostra vacanza in Giappone che Junko ci guida alla scoperta della città. Junko parla un buon italiano ed è una guida molto competente, affabile, disponibile e risponde sempre con competenza alle nostre curiosità. Il pomeriggio passato con lei è stato bellissimo, visitando il parco abbiamo potuto assaporare la tranquillità di Tokyo anche se è una città immensa. Per gli spostamenti abbiamo utilizzato il metrò, che lei conosce bene avendo vissuto da sempre a Tokyo, i taxi e dei pezzi camminando. Un pomeriggio stupendo con una guida, Junko, che ha saputo farci scoprire Tokio in modo professionale e competente. Grazie ancora per il bel pomeriggio passato con te Junko!

Grazie per tutti i complimenti. È stato un grande piacere farvi conoscere il nostro bellissimo giardino giapponese (Shinjuku Gyoen) e il governo metropolitano di Tokyo. Mi ha fatto molto piacere che vi siate interessati a vari aspetti del Giappone. Junko

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 more than 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.

Grant A.
Hello! My name is Grant, and I’ve spent over a decade living and exploring Japan. Originally from Omaha, Nebraska, I first came to Japan as a high school exchange student in Inuyama, a historic castle town in Aichi. My love for Japan began early—sparked by childhood games like Pokémon that were released in Japanese before English. That early curiosity grew into a lifelong passion for Japanese language, culture, and history. I hold an N2 on the Japanese Language Proficiency Test, a degree in Asian Studies from a Tokyo university, and I graduated from the Japan Visual Media Translation Academy. I’ve visited all 47 prefectures and explored a wide range of historical sites, shrines, and castles throughout the country. My background in Japanese history helps me provide context that brings depth and meaning to the places we visit—whether it's understanding a centuries-old temple in Kyoto, the story behind a castle ruin, or uncovering the historical layers of a Tokyo neighborhood. If you’re planning to explore Tokyo, here are some tour options to consider: One day in Tokyo? The Ginza Line Tour offers a great introduction to the city’s highlights. Two days? Pair the East Tokyo Tour and West Tokyo Tour to get a well-rounded experience. Interested in anime? The Anime Tour is flexible and can be tailored to match your specific interests. For those looking to go beyond the city, I also offer day trips to Nikko, Kamakura, and other nearby destinations. While most guests book Tokyo-based tours, I also guide in other regions—especially Kyoto, where I’ve visited every World Heritage Site. I regularly lead tours in Osaka, Nara, Nagoya, Hikone, and other locations easily reached by rail. Multi-day and custom tours are available on request. Full-Day Tour: 40,000 yen (8 hours) Full-Day Tour Outside of Tokyo: 40,000 yen + transportation Feel free to get in touch to plan a tour that fits your interests and travel plans.

Tak Y.
Hi, my name is Tak. I have seen travelers. And, I found they got tired of typical sightseeing spots, like crowded temples and shrines. There must be spots fit to your feeling and interests, more in Japan. Then, I’d like to propose. Why don’t you start unique and original tour, only your hearts bring to yourselves? . I had guided Pokemon tour Ghost story tour Inari Shrines tour Live house tour Bento (lunchbox) tour Textile tour Papermaking tour I’ll search the site you want to see and create your unique itinerary. First, could you give your message about things you want to do and see in Japan? Let’s make great time you can’t never forget. Thank you so much. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------. I live in SHITAMACHI, Tokyo, or old residential town near ASAKUSA and UENO. My hobby is strolling and I walk about this area almost every day. I know even the smallest path, big and small museums, workshops of artisans, an impressive view of gigantic tree, a beer bar in an impressive old house, unique souvenir shops, cats living in Yanaka and many, many other attractive spots in this area. You can expect a day that nobody read in guide books. So! I hope you name me as the navigator of your fantastic memory-making-tour!!!! I’m 61-year-old and I still love rock’n roll music. If you want to enjoy live music in Tokyo, I can also arrange the location and occasion according to your mood and boom.
