About Tour Guide Fujiko M.

Hello! My name is Fujiko Maeda. I'm a national-licensed tour guide. I was born in Sado Island, off the coast of Niigata Prefecture. I once worked in tourism industry for about 10 years when I lived in Tokyo. Now I'm a persimmon farmer but when time permits I'm happy to guide you here in Sado mainly but also other places, too. We have a lot to offer like beautiful nature, historical sites, local specialties, traditional performing arts, festivals, islanders smiles and so on.

If you'd like to know real Japanese lifestyle, please visit Sado.

I'm sure you'll be satisfied.

Let's explore Sado or other wonderful and beautiful places with me!

Also, if you have any questions about Sado or Japan as a whole, please don't hesitate to email me.

Auf den Spuren den Lachses in Japan

Es war ein interessanter Ausflug im Zeichen des Lachses. Sehr schön war auch, eine ruhige und nicht so sehr touristische Stadt zu sehen. Fujiko war sehr pünktlich, sowohl sie als auch der Fahrer waren sehr an unserer deutschen Kultur interessiert.

Hello Heike san, Thank you very much for writing the review of the tour. I feel happy that you enjoyed the quiet yet history-rich Murakami city. Please explore more about Japan more in the future with your wonderful friends! Best regards, Fujiko

Customised tour of Sado Island

Fujiko is an excellent tour guide and we enjoyed ourselves very much as we got to take a deeper look at different parts of Sado island. She has a great command of English, explains the context of Sado's history, development and other interesting tidbits of information very well. She was also accommodating to fit in many places of interest in our day tour of the island. She is friendly and will take on any question you ask her with pleasure. We highly recommend her. (:

Hi Justin, Good day to you! Thank you very much for writing such a wonderful review of the tour. It was a cold autumn day but the weather was beautiful and I guess you could visit the places you had in mind in this 6&1/2 hour tour. Sado Island is much different from Singapore even tough the area is about the same. I hope you could refresh yourselves in a tiny still unknown island!! Please stay healthy and happy:) Hope to guide you in the near future. Fujiko

Niigata Toyr with Fujiko

I appreciate the time Fujiko took to show me around Niigata-shi. She was accompanied by a friend and fellow tour guide,Taku, who kindly provided the transportation. The tour was informative and entertaining! I was allowed to customize the tour with sites I was interested in seeing, and Fujiko created a wonderful plan for my seven hour tour. After meeting me at my hotel, we visited a Senbei factory, creating our own seasoning for our rice crackers; a Sake brewery tour & sampling; a fish market; a street market where I purcashed the local sweet treat, Sasa Dango; a delicious lunch enjoying Wappameshi; walking the Furumachi area; and ending at the Hakusan Shrine and garden. Taku also helped me purchase my train tickets at the Niigata Station for the next day. I appreciated their patience with all of my questions. They made my first trip to Niigata comfortable with their friendly and experienced guidance and information! I would gladly schedule with them again for future tours. Thank you! Ann
