“A Passionate Guide with a Great Heart”
Our guide was truly passionate about what he does, and it showed throughout the entire experience. He explained everything with enthusiasm, patience, and genuine care. Beyond being very knowledgeable, he is a kind and respectful person who makes everyone feel comfortable and welcome. The tour felt natural, enjoyable, and full of positive energy. I highly recommend mido to anyone looking for an authentic and memorable experience.

“Great tour, great time, great value”
The tour with Mido was simply wonderful. Not like being with a guide, but like being shown around the city by a friend. Entertaining, exciting, and also educational. We immediately got along and had an absolutely great time. For anyone who wants to get to know Tokyo off the beaten tourist path, a tour with Mido is a must. Full marks—highly recommended!

“Hiring a relaxed friend for an adventure ”
I can’t say enough good things about Mido. He gave me the opportunity to see 300% more sights than if I’d tried on my own. He was a laid-back knowledgeable local with a no-pressure attitude about exploring. Mido is really good at this type of work, and it’s clear with the way he treats you and talks to you.

Thank you so much for your wonderful review! It truly means a lot to me. I’m really happy to hear that you enjoyed the adventure and that I could help you see more of Japan in a relaxed and fun way. I always try to make my tours feel like exploring with a friend, so I’m glad that came through. You were amazing to guide, and I appreciate the good vibes and trust you gave me throughout the day. If you ever come back to Japan, I’d be more than happy to explore more hidden spots with you. Thanks again for your kind words!

Being a former student and staff member of the University of Tokyo, I have a natural ability to communicate with people from all corners of the world. Regardless of whether you prefer to speak English, French, or Globish with me ! I have practiced Aikido, Iaido (Katana), and Kyudo (Bow) martial arts, and I have also worked on the restoration of Japanese armor. Therefore, I am well-versed in the art of war in ancient Japan. But my passion for history goes further, and during my guided tours, I will share various anecdotes that will bring ancient Japan to life for you ! I'm also a huge fan of old Japanese video games, especially RPGs, so if you want a true otaku experience, follow me to Nakano Broadway and Akihabara! If you're interested in arranging a tour that's tailored to your preferences, feel free to send me a message !

Koichiro Y.
Hello! I’m Koichiro. Please call me “Yamasan”. It derives from my family name and my friends call me so. I worked for a machinery company as a project manager and engineer for mechanical and electrical construction projects both domestic and overseas for over 35 years. I recall my first overseas project in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia when I was 26, and the second was in Singapore. I visited many countries for surveys, meetings, commissioning, project handing over, and so on. In 2014 at the age of 60, I decided to retire from the company and live the expected further 30 years of life with a new career and experiences. I, then, studied translation and guide interpretation. I passed the national examination for licensed guides (English) in 2015 and registered with the Tokyo Metropolitan Government in February 2016. Until now, I have been guiding many beautiful guests mainly to popular sightseeing spots such as Asakusa, Tsukiji, Omote-Sando, Meiji Jingu Shrine, and Tokyo Skytree, and also cultural experiences of Origami making, Furoshiki wrapping, and Sushi cooking. I am happy that I can freely arrange a customized tour together with you, or can propose my tours to you. I want to show you some parts of daily Tokyo life and introduce you to Bunkyo City which is located in the heart of Tokyo, just north of Chiyoda City where the Imperial Palace and Tokyo Station are. The city is Tokyo’s typical residential and academic area where I was born, grew up, and live a happy life now. Now, we can tour around the world but have not yet overcome COVID-19 completely. Recently, the number of passengers wearing masks on public transportation in Tokyo reduced to some 25% but we should mind about it still. Please carry your mask to wear it where or when necessary (December 2024, Yamasan).

I’m so excited to have a chance to show you around my favorite spots in Kanagawa prefecture. I was born in Kanagawa. I spent my whole school life, including university, here in Kanagawa. I worked as a high school English teacher here for more than 40 years. I love Kanagawa so much. We have many interesting tourist spots, like Hakone, Kamakura, Enoshima and Yokohama. I got my tour guide license in English in 2009. I am still an English teacher. To give an interesting and impressive lesson to young high school students, I’ve learnt and gathered many kinds of information. I also have a license to teach social studies, so I have a wide range of knowledge about Japanese culture and history. I’m sure to provide you an interesting tour.
