“Kyoto with Jasmine was a 10!!!”
My wife and I spent a 5-hour tour with Jasmine in Kyoto. There are no words to describe how wonderful she is. Her enthusiasm is infectious and her knowledge is amazing. She is an incredible tour guide and a awesome person. We could not imagine ever coming back to Kyoto without asking Jasmine to take us around again.

I have spent nearly 30 years working in a Government organization, contributing to development projects in Latin America and African countries. During this time, I cultivated strong cross-cultural understanding and effective communication skills. For the past 10 years, I have lived in the UNESCO World Heritage city of Guanajuato, Mexico, where I managed a guesthouse, operated a jewelry workshop, and provided guided tours. Through these experiences, I have developed a deep sense of hospitality and attentiveness, ensuring that visitors have a comfortable and enjoyable stay. Leveraging these skills, I am dedicated to sharing the beauty of Japan with international guests and creating unforgettable travel experiences.
