About Tour Guide Minoru A.
Hello, Konichiwa!!
I am Minoru, Government Licensed interpreter and Tour Guide.
I was born and spent my school years in Hokkaido.
And now, I have lived in Kanagawa prefecture, which borders the south of Tokyo for many years.
So, I am very familiar with many of major tourist attractions in Kanagawa prefecture and Tokyo metropolis.
Just a short journey from the capital, there's a region where tradition meets the sea breeze.
Here, you can wander through exotic street, relax by beautiful coastlines, and feel a subtle yet fascinating international atmosphere shaped by centuries of
cultural exchange. This coastal area offers a unique blend of serenity, history, and quiet charm
—a refreshing contrast to Japan’s urban bustle.
While my focus is on guiding you through the many hidden gems of this area, I can also introduce you to the excitement of Tokyo.
If you're interested in exploring the city where cutting-edge trends and deep-rooted history come together in perfect harmony, feel free to ask—I'd be happy to help you discover its charm as well.
If I have a chance to see you, I will do my very best to guide you, and I sincerely hope you will create wonderful memories in Japan.
Thank you very much! Arigatou!
I'm very looking forward to seeing you!
Important
While I have no restrictions on the days of the week, I would prefer to work approximately four days per week.

Yumiko O.
Hello, my name is Yumiko, and I am a licensed tour guide based in Japan. It is my pleasure to share the beauty of Japan with travelers from all over the world. I have guided many visitors through Tokyo, Kamakura, Hakone, and other famous destinations, as well as hidden gems that only locals know. My goal is always to create a tour that is not only informative but also enjoyable and personalized to your interests. With a warm and flexible guiding style, I love helping guests discover Japan’s traditions, history, and everyday life. Whether you are interested in temples and shrines, delicious local food, or simply strolling through charming streets, I will do my best to make your time in Japan unforgettable. I am excited to announce that I have started offering tours in Odawara! Odawara is a historic castle town located just an hour from Tokyo, famous for its impressive Odawara Castle, beautiful views of both the sea and mountains, and its role as the gateway to Hakone. In addition to exploring the castle and tasting local specialties such as fresh seafood and kamaboko (fish cakes), you can also enjoy many Instagram-worthy spots, from the scenic coastline to charming traditional houses that give a glimpse of Japan’s past. Odawara is still less crowded compared to other popular destinations, so it’s a great time to visit. I look forward to welcoming you and creating wonderful memories together!
