About Tour Guide Nobuko O.
Hello, fellow adventurers! I'm Nobuko, your enthusiastic guide through the captivating cities of Kyoto, Nara, Osaka, and the beautiful Wakayama region, including the awe-inspiring Koya-mountain.
Currently, I call Osaka, near Kansai Airport, my home. My journey into cultural exploration began here and has enriched my perspective while deepening my love for Japan. Now, I'm excited to share the wonders of these destinations with you, from the well-known attractions to the hidden gems in Wakayama.
Our journey together will encompass not only the well-trodden paths of Kyoto, Nara, and Osaka but also the serene and spiritual experiences that await in Wakayama and the mystical Koya-mountain. Get ready for an adventure that will leave you with cherished memories and a deeper connection to Japan's rich heritage!

“Above and beyond”
Nobuko went above and beyond to make our experience special. Our party had members with strict dietary issues, and she made sure to book meals at places that could accommodate them. She is a warm, personable, and felt like a member of the family. Highly, highly recommend!

Dear Lia san, Thank you so much for your lovely words! It really warmed my heart. I felt so lucky to spend time with all of you — like being part of one big, happy family! The meals you kindly treated me to were absolutely delicious and made for such unforgettable moments. I’ll always treasure those special times we shared. Please let me guide you around our hometown again when you come back! With love from Japan, Nobuko

Hi Rick san, Thanks so much for your kind words. I really enjoyed our time together! Your knowledge of plants and flowers taught me a lot, and you even sparked my own interest in gardening. Hope we can explore together again sometime! Warm regards, Nobuko

Hi, I am Shuji, a licensed tour guide living near Kansai International Airport. I taught world history in high schools for four decades. So, I can explain Japanese culture or history in an easier way tailored to you who have different cultural and historical backgrounds. I also practiced Kendo, Japanese fencing, for more than four decades, and now I enjoy growing vegetables and going fishing. Therefore, I can also share some Japanese culture and its nature. I have traveled to more than 25 countries and all over Japan. I’m also passionate about photography and know many photogenic places in Japan. If you prefer to go off the beaten track, I can take you to hidden gems, including some cozy restaurants. Of course, I also know how to enjoy the crowded, most popular tourist sites. I am here to make your trip stress-free. See you soon!

Hallow ! This is Eric Tanaka. I was born in Kyoto, and I have been living in Kyoto. I am sure that Kyoto is one of the best city for sightseeing and living. I wish if I can introduce some nice places for you by walking around city streets. Also, in suburbs, there are a lot of nice sightseeing places such as Bamboo forest, Monkey park, Fushimi shrine, Zen practice temples and so on. Let's enjoy Kyoto town and Kyoto food.with me.
