About Tour Guide Shigeki M.
Hello !!! I'm a government certified tour guide. I'm from Kyoto. I'm positive, active and full of curiosity with a sense of humor. I majored in the international commerce in the university and I worked for an electronics company as a sales person. During my career, I had a chance to live in Europe and I learned and experienced different cultures and various values, which helped me to communicate and deal with non-Japanese people more smoothly.
I like travelling (visited more than 40 countries) and watching sports (baseball, football and rugby) as well as going for drinking and Karaoke !
Let's explore Japan with me !!
Looking forward to seeing you soon !!!
Hola!!!
Soy Shigeki. Soy de Kioto que fue la capital de Japón por mas de mil años.
Soy positivo, activo, curioso y tengo mucho sentido de humor. Aprendí el comercio en la universidad y trabajaba como vendedor en una compañia electrónica. En mi carrera, tuve oportunidades de vivir en Europa y aprendí y experimenté culturas y valores distintos que me ayudaron a comunicarme fácilmente y a tratar con gente de todo el mundo.
A mí me encantaría viajar no solo por Japón sino también por todo el mundo. He conocido más de 40 países. Me gusta el deporte, ver partidos de béisbol, futbol y rugby así como salir a tomar unas cervezas y Karaoke.
¡Ven a explorar Japón conmigo!
¡Espero verte pronto!

Fantástico KIOTO !!
Básicamente, hago recorridas según su interés y favor, sin embargo este tour le da la imagen completa de Kioto en un día. Después, podría conocer Kioto muy bien !!
Wonderful KYOTO !!
I basically make a tour depending on client's interest and favor but this is a tour which gives you the whole image of Kyoto in one day. After this, you would cover popular places and understand Kyoto with me.

I have worked in the multi-national organizations including UN agency for around 30 years and stationed at various cities including Rome, Bangkok and Hanoi. Although I have retired from those international carriers, I wish to keep the international cooperation and develop the friendship with people who visits our country. As I like history and am practicing Noh song and wood curving of Buddha images, I have decided to live in Nara where is surrounded by many historical places and traditional cultures, when I returned back to Japan in 2017. I wish to offer you custom made trip ideas to be able to enjoy the atmosphere of old city, Nara. I am also planning to develop trip plans to enjoy the local cultures. Please call me Yasu.

Hi! I had been working for Wakayama Prefectural Government for 38 years, mainly in the field of cultural heritage management and international relations. I am a national certificated English guide and I have a lot of knowledge and experience in the field of cultural heritage management and international relations. I am very good at cultural heritages. And Koyasan and Kumano in Wakayama Prefecture are inscribed in the World Heritage List as parts of “Sacred Sites and Pilgrimage Routes in the Kii Mountain Range". I was a project manager of "the Koyasan and Kumano World Heritage Inscription Project” at Wakayama Prefectural Government. I know inside and out of Koyasan, Kumano, Wakayama and other places in the Kansai area. I have a lot of experience of guiding as I was also in charge of international relations for a long time at the government. I will be able to provide interpretive guiding service for you around Koyasan, Wakayama, Osaka and other places in the Kansai area as I am a cultural heritage management and international relations professional. I am sure you will be able to get deeper understandings on Japanese culture and that your trip with me will be memorable one.

Hello! I am Kanae, a nationally licensed guide. While working full-time as a lecturer at a local university in Kyoto, I have also been guiding for two years. Born and raised in Kyoto, I am excited to share the beauty and culture of my hometown with my customers. Kyoto is an enchanting city, and even as a local, I am continually fascinated by its many charming spots. Whether it's the serene temples, vibrant markets, or hidden gems, there is always something new to explore and appreciate in this wonderful city. Also, since my home is close to Shiga Prefecture, I am very familiar with the area. While Shiga may not be as popular as Kyoto, it offers a wealth of attractions for tourists. From historical sites such as temples and shrines to the stunning natural beauty of Lake Biwa, the largest lake in Japan, there is much to see and do. I am passionate about promoting Shiga and sharing its unique charm with visitors.
