“Would have missed much in and about Hakodate without our guide.”
Hakodate was one of our favorite stops while circumnavigating around Japan. Even with a language barrier we were able to communicate easily with her with both of us having good translation apps. We were shown many very special areas in the port. Thank you GoWithGuide!

“Seven Hells & Crocodiles!”
Beautiful and amazingly colored hot springs, topped off by a pool full of crocodiles. Don’t miss driving through the narrow streets where movies and dramas are filmed. Our driver was accommodating, eager to take pictures for us and knowledgeable about the area.

“Ringing the gong at Chikurin-ji Temple”
From the Chikurin-ji Temple to the observation deck at Godaisan Park to the red bridge at Harimayabashi Park to shopping at Harimayacho, it was a day full of contrasts. With the use of translation apps, we were able to communicate beautifully with our driver and learn all about this wonderful city.

Hello, I was born in 1956 in Hiroshima and have lived in Tokyo for over 40 years. I have a license of “National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter”. I love outdoor activities, especially fishing and golf. I have been to CANADA for 6 months as a bank trainee and have worked for 5 years in the US at the age of my 30s. It is my pleasure to show you around in Japan. As you know, there are four seasons in Japan and you can enjoy the nature of each season. Especially in spring time, cherry blossoms in full bloom welcome you. Japan is a safe country, meals are very delicious, and you can explore Japanese great history at the spiritual places of shrines and temples. Please contact me. You are assured to have an enjoyable and memorial trip. I'm looking forward to having wonderful time with you. See you!

Masahiro N.
Hallo zusammen! Ich heiße Masahiro, aber meine Freunde nennen mich Masa. Nach meinem Studium in Tokio habe ich von 2006 bis 2013 in Wien gelebt. 2013 bin ich endgültig nach Japan zurückgekehrt. Während meiner Zeit in Wien habe ich die deutschsprachige Welt und ihre Kultur sehr intensiv kennengelernt. Heute möchte ich eine Brücke zwischen dem deutschsprachigen Raum und Japan sein – und genau deshalb arbeite ich als Reiseleiter. Ich habe das Gefühl, dass diese Aufgabe meine Lebensaufgabe geworden ist. Für mich ist ein Guide so etwas wie ein privater Diplomat. Er verbindet Menschen aus verschiedenen Ländern und Kulturen und hilft ihnen, einander besser zu verstehen. Ich habe bereits Erfahrung darin, meine Gäste durch viele verschiedene Orte in Japan zu führen, unter anderem durch: • Tokio • Kamakura( Kanagawa) • die Region um den Fuji • Kawagoe(Saitama) • Nikko(Tochigi) • Karuizawa (Nagano) • Kanazawa(Ishikawa) • Kyoto • Osaka • Kobe • Himeji • Nagasaki …und natürlich gibt es noch viele weitere Orte zu entdecken! Ich wohne heute in der Nähe von Tokio. Deshalb sind Touren in Tokio und der Umgebung für mich besonders gut machbar. Eine Reise macht das Leben bunt! Lassen Sie Ihren Alltagsstress hinter sich und genießen Sie entspannte Momente, neue Entdeckungen und interessante Begegnungen – vielleicht sogar den einen oder anderen kleinen Kulturschock. Ich freue mich sehr darauf, Sie auf Ihrer Reise durch Japan zu begleiten! Bis bald in Japan!

Stephen Y.
Hello! I'm Stephen. Originally from London, I've had the privilege of calling Tokyo my home for the past 20-odd years. Japan is a beautiful country, and my first visit here left me deeply touched by the kindness of numerous strangers. Whether this is your first visit or you're returning to explore more, I hope our encounter will be memorable and will add to your experience of this wonderful country. Tokyo is a jazz lover's paradise and is truly blessed with a large number of good joints, from intimate underground spots to historic venues. As a jazz fan, I love exploring the city's live jazz clubs and unique jazz kissas (cafés). Live jazz clubs are fantastic - there's nothing quite like the excitement of a performance unfolding in real time, with the energy shared between the musicians and the audience. I believe live jazz is at its best when it's close, warm, and communal - which is why I'm particularly fond of the smaller, more intimate clubs favored by talented local and visiting musicians. Jazz kissas offer a very different, yet equally captivating experience - they are relaxed spaces to enjoy carefully selected vinyl played on high-quality systems, and sometimes learn from a passionate owner about all things jazz through conversation. Many kissas are also known for their Nel drip coffee - a slow, hand-poured method using a cotton cloth filter, a Japanese favorite rarely seen elsewhere. On my tours, we can explore a jazz-rich neighborhood such as Kichijoji or Shimokitazawa, join a local jam session (if you're a musician), or do a 'jazz kissa crawl', visiting two or three kissas in one evening to experience their different expressions. I can offer personalized tours tailored to your musical interests. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or requests!
