About Tour Guide Dmitrijs B.

I have lived in Japan for 12 years so far, including 7 years in Tokyo and 5 years in Kamakura. I know these two places very well and would be glad to share my knowledge of Japanese history and culture with you.

I speak four languages, including Japanese, and I enjoy meeting new people. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions or requests.

P.S. English is not my native language. I received a TOEFL iBT score of 108 many years ago, which corresponds to the advanced C1 level. However, there may still be some accent or occasional vocabulary slips. I appreciate your understanding :)

Important

I will be happy to adjust my schedule to your needs.

Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions regarding your visit to Tokyo, Yokohama, or Kamakura.

3 hours

Self-awareness Zen walk “Iza Kamakura — it’s time to go to Kamakura”

This walk, led by a local artist, emphasizes a quiet, meditative, and meaningful experience. It deliberately avoids crowded tourist spots and streets, instead offering a tranquil route through the green hills that gently slope toward the ocean. Along the walk, we will visit four temples — three of which belong to the Rinzai school of Zen Buddhism — including one founded by Eisai, the monk who introduced Zen Buddhism and culture of green tea to Japan.

“Great introduction to Tokyo”

Tokyo can be hard to navigate for the first time visitors, and this tour was really helpful. Dmitrijs was excellent: the tour was well-planned, he modified the amount of walking for us, was knowledgeable, flexible, tactful, and organized. We have seen many famous landmarks and learned a lot about the history and contemporary life of this vibrant city. His fluent Japanese came in handy in many situations. We are really thankful and can highly recommend him for both Russian and English-speaking tourists.

Dmitrijs B.

Thank you very much, Oleg and Marina, for your kind feedback. I’m truly happy to hear that you enjoyed our walk and tour. It was a great pleasure meeting you, and I hope to see you again in Tokyo!

“Amazing experience”

It was best decision to took tour with Dmitrijs. We not only saw the famous sights like Shibuya Crossing, Ginza or Meiji Jingu, but he also took us to quiet backstreets we never would have found ourselves. HE also helped us a lot with transportation questions and was extremely flexible. Next time we will ask him again - because it was the awesome investment in our short trip. Thank you very much for amazon day!

Dmitrijs B.

Thank you very much, Mikhail, for coming and for the review! I'm really happy to hear that you enjoyed the tour. I look forward to seeing you again in Tokyo!
