I'm Amy S., your private tour guide in Kyoto

Guide #80483

Hi! I'm Amy. I have a wide range of work experience, such as a professional tour guide in Kyoto, an ALT in elementary and junior high schools in Japan, an English-Thai translator for NHK core Kyoto program, a flight attendant for three international airlines, inbound, outbound and domestic tour guide during my university studies in Thailand. I believe I'm the best fit for this job because of the skills and expertise to deal with people and communication abilities. I also love service, meeting people and traveling to different places. I have excellent interpersonal and communication skills and I am able to engage effectively with a variety of people. I am confident I can respond quickly and efficiently to any queries or issues that may arise during a tour. In addition, I am a team player and am able to work effectively with other members of the team.

    Although we did a short tour, Amy was wonderful! She arranged for us to have a traditional lunch where she met us afterwards to tell us all about the meal and the history of the area. She walked us through a temple where we had fun learning and taking photos. We walked through the Arashiyama Bamboo Forest and into the little town where she introduced us to so many...

    Amy Sato was the BEST tour guide! We were two senior citizen females who requested a history/cultural tour close to our hotel and Amy provided exactly what we needed. She went above and beyond to reach out to us later to ensure we knew the best places to eat and visit, even after the tour! We simply cannot say enough about how wonderful it was to have a local 'friend' who...

    Wonderful guide in Kyoto—highly recommended! Amy was an absolute joy to spend the day with in Kyoto. She’s warm, enthusiastic, and remarkably articulate, and she made every part of our visit feel special and meaningful. We started at Kiyomizu-dera, where her thoughtful, spiritually grounded perspective as a practicing Buddhist gave the temple real depth and quiet...

    Amy was an absolutely fantastic tour guide! We’re visiting from Canada and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. She tailored the entire tour to our interests, taking us to the Golden Pavilion, Bamboo Forest, and several other beautiful spots. One of the highlights was a Buddhist temple that most tours don’t visit. It was an incredible experience we never would...
