Enjoy Nintendo for Kids and Gamers
Kyoto is famous for its temples and shrines. If you go with kids, it's hard to have an interest in history for kids. Kyoto has Nintendo headquarters. If you are a fan of Nintendo games, I recommend this tour of places related to Nintendo, led by a storyteller. We will drop by Pokémon Center, the Nintendo Shop, and the Used Toys Shop. You can enjoy shopping also.

Early Bird Deer Nara Tour
Nara is one of Japan's most-visited destinations, which means it gets crowded during the day. Dodge the biggest crowds and enjoy a more intimate experience of the ancient Japanese capital on this early-morning, private tour. Admire landmarks such as Toudaiji Temple and Nara Park, and Naramachi, home to free-roaming deer, while learning about the rich history of this sacred place.

“Great Day with Miyu”
Miyu took my mom (71), me and 2 kids (5, 6) around Kyoto for the day. We specifically wanted someone flexible, not too focused on explaining, and who could take us to some lesser known spots. My mom specifically is usually very demanding on her travel. Miyu delivered a wonderful day - we saw a lesser known temple, a less crowded bamboo forest, and she gave us just enough interesting tidbits on the way. She also helped me buy a Japanese New Year's lottery ticket for my wife, which would have otherwise been impossible for me to do. She's easygoing, realistic, and flexible. If these are qualities you're looking for in a guide, you won't go wrong with Miyu!

“Thanks Miyu! ***** Nice tour guide! ”
Hired Miyu to take us around Nara and Arashiyama over two days. We are a family of four with two kids: 3 and 9. Miyu met us at our hotel in Kyoto and we took public transportation to both areas for the day. She was on time, courteous and adapted to our needs. Would recommend!

“Kyoto, highly recommended”
We had the pleasure of spending a full day touring Kyoto with Miyu and it was truly an exceptional experience. From the very beginning, Miyu impressed us with her good English skills, her professionalism, and her ability to make the day both engaging and enjoyable. She is also a native Japanese speaker and a resident of Kyoto so was able to translate and communicate with the locals. Her knowledge of Kyoto’s historic sites is outstanding—she not only shared the history and cultural significance of each location but also brought the stories to life in a way that felt personal and memorable. Beyond the well-known landmarks, Miuy took us to hidden corners of the city that we would never have discovered on our own. One of the highlights was a tucked-away ramen shop that became an instant favorite of our trip. What really set this tour apart was Miyu’s flexibility and thoughtful recommendations. She tailored the itinerary to match our interests and made sure we got the most out of our time. At the end of the tour, she went above and beyond by giving us valuable tips on what to see and do during the rest of our stay in Kyoto. We felt we absolutely got our money’s worth and more. For anyone looking for a guide who combines deep cultural knowledge, local food expertise, and a warm, approachable personality, we cannot recommend Miuy highly enough. Whether you’re traveling individually or with a small group, booking a day with her will be one of the best decisions you make in Kyoto.

Rina K.
Hi, I’m Rina—welcome to Osaka! I’d love to show you around my hometown. My tours are perfect for travelers who want to explore Japan at a relaxed pace, enjoying local neighborhoods, cozy cafés, and everyday culture. Of course, we’ll visit the major sights too. Since July 2025, I’ve had the pleasure of guiding guests from all over the world. I really enjoy hearing about their lives and cultures, and it’s always a joy to see their reactions to Japan. Everyday things—like food, traditions, or what locals might take for granted—often feel fresh and exciting to visitors. Sharing those little discoveries together is one of the best parts of guiding. Osaka is known as the “city of kuidaore,” where food is a way of life. From takoyaki, kushikatsu, and okonomiyaki to spice curry, bakeries, and udon shops, there’s something for every taste. Of course, we also have famous sights like Osaka Castle, the Glico sign, and Tsutenkaku Tower. But Osaka—sometimes called the “city of rivers”—also invites you to wander along the waterways and discover retro buildings and hidden corners. It’s also a great base for exploring the Kansai region. In a single day, you can visit Kyoto’s temples, Nara’s deer, Kobe’s harbor, or Shiga’s lakeside views. Join me for a laid-back journey through Osaka. We’ll enjoy its flavors, stories, and everyday charm—at your own pace. I hope this photo gallery gives you a few ideas for your next trip. Looking forward to welcoming you to Osaka!

A Local Friend in Kansai — Meet Atif Hey there! I’m Atif, a travel lover who’s been calling Osaka home for the past few years. What started as a curious adventure quickly turned into a deep love for this region — the food, the people, and all the little hidden corners that make Kansai so special. Now, I spend my days sharing those discoveries with travelers who want to see the real Japan — not just the postcard version. What I Offer Fun & Flexible Tours: No boring scripts here! I plan each tour around you — whether you love taking photos, tasting street food, exploring quiet temples, or getting lost in neon-lit backstreets. Local Secrets: After years of wandering Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, and Kobe, I’ve found the best hidden gems — from tiny noodle shops to peaceful gardens and back-alley shrines. Laughs & Memories: My tours aren’t just about facts — they’re about fun. Expect stories, local legends, and maybe even a karaoke challenge (if you’re brave enough)! Why Travel with Me Because travel should feel like exploring with a local friend, not following a flag in a crowd. I love good food, spontaneous detours, and showing people the Kansai that most tourists miss. Whether it’s your first visit or your fifth, I’ll make sure you experience something new — and unforgettable. Let’s Start the Adventure! Ready to explore Osaka, Kyoto, Nara, or Kobe? Let’s laugh, learn, eat, and wander together — Kansai style!
