About Tour Guide Ei-chan N.
My nickname is Ei-chan, and I’m a licensed English-speaking driver-guide in Japan. I live in Kobe. I love sharing Japanese culture, history, and everyday life with people from around the world.
I drive my own comfortable minivan, which is perfect for small groups and families. With it, we can travel safely and smoothly while exploring beautiful places off the beaten path.
Before becoming a guide, I worked as a teacher, so I enjoy explaining things clearly and making learning fun. During our tour, I’ll do my best to make your trip both informative and enjoyable, filled with local stories, humor, and warm hospitality.
Please feel free to ask me anything about Japan—its traditions, food, or daily life.
Let’s enjoy a wonderful journey together and create unforgettable memories!
Important
I can guide in Kyoto, Nara, Wakayama, and Himeji as well.
From 2026 onwards, I will stop teaching and will only be guiding, so any day of the week will be fine.

Hello, everyone! Welcome to Japan. My name is Noboru. I’m a national licensed guide. I was born in Osaka and spent my university student life in Kyoto. And now I have been in Himeji for over 35 years. These cities are in Kansai aea. So,I'm very much familiar with the sightseeing spots and attractions in the area, especially Himeji and its neighboring cities. If you are looking for someone to show you around the area, please join my tour. I will show you special local dishes in the area as well. Looking forward to seeing your smile soon.

Kyoko K.
Hi, I’m Kyoko. I was born and raised in Kobe. After completing my education, I spent 25 years in London, where I taught piano and enjoyed a wonderful life in England. I returned to Kobe a couple of years ago to care for my elderly father and began a new chapter in my career as a tour guide. Kobe has recovered beautifully since the major earthquake 30 years ago. It is much quieter than Kyoto and Osaka, making it a perfect place to relax and enjoy your time in Japan. I would love to show you the beautiful scenery of Kobe, from its mountains to its seaside. My typical tour starts at the herb gardens on the mountaintop, continues through the city center and Chinatown, and finishes at Harborland, a famous spot for photos and stunning views. It would be my pleasure to help you create wonderful memories in Kobe. I look forward to welcoming you on my tour.
