About Tour Guide Niko T.
KONNICHIWA!!
I’m Niko!
I’ve lived in Australia and worked at the Osaka Expo 2025.
Through those experiences, I met people from all over the world — we hung out together, and I loved taking them to hidden local spots that tourists usually don’t find, like cozy cafés, local restaurants, and beautiful nature spots.
I’m a very friendly person who loves learning new things. I enjoy not only sharing unique and lesser-known sides of Japan, but also hearing stories about your country and anything you’d like to talk about!
I’m a big FOODIE! (Please go to my galleries!)
Please let me make you try my favorite Japanese foods!!
I also love taking a pictures and will always bring my camera with me, , so I can take beautiful photos of you during the tour — and you’ll get them on the spot as a little gift !
Providing warm hospitality to people is truly my joy.
You won’t regret joining my tour — I promise!
Can’t wait to meet you soon!

“A truly great guide!”
Niko was a terrific guide for us in Kyoto - she consistently went above and beyond. She worked hard to get a replacement sushi class for us when the original canceled. She took us to the most important sites; then even helped me get a special Pokemon for my granddaughter! We were very impressed with Niko and recommend her highly.

“The star attraction of our day was our guide!”
From the moment Niko arrived (perfectly on time) we felt comfortable. She made sure we were warm enough for the day and patiently waited for us. She took us to amazing shrines, markets and a delicious sushi cafe we would never have found. Thank you for a great day Niko, see you next time! Mark & Del

Noboru S.
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.
