Hello. My name is Eiichi and my nick name is Eddy. So, please call me Eddy because Eiichi is difficult for visitors to pronounce. I am a "National government licensed guide interpreter" certified by Japanese government. I offer private tours around Tokyo and I am flexible and open to customizing your tours. I was born and live in Chiba prefecture, which is next to Tokyo and I have worked in Tokyo for more than 20 years. My hobby is ceramic art, golf, and Zen meditation, and I like traveling and reading history books. Based on these experience and knowledge, I will introduce Japanese culture and history. I used to work as an engineer for one of major electronic manufacturers which exports communication systems and components to overseas. Through the job, I visited many countries including New Zealand where I fortunately stayed for four years with my family. I have found it fun to communicate with people in other countries. So, after my recent retirement, I started to work as a guide interpreter. I'm looking forward to meeting visitors who are interested in Japanese beautiful nature, unique culture, variety of foods or history. - National government licensed guide interpreter (English) (Cert No. EN01121) -Domestic travel business handling manager (Cert No. 03-53-1626) - Authorized domestic tour conductor I do not drive a car with customers due to local regulation. If a customer requests to use a car, I can arrange a taxi.

    Our tour with Elichi was amazing even in inclement weather. The Buddha Temple fire ceremony was truly a unique local experience that we will always remember for the loud precision drums, the chanting of the monks, the offerings brought forward for blessing and the opportunity to learn about Buddha beliefs. Our conveyor sushi lunch at a newly opened shopping mall was again...

    Thank you very much for your kind review. I’m delighted to hear that you enjoyed the fire ceremony and the sushi experience, even in the rain. It was a pleasure sharing both the traditional and modern sides of Tokyo with you. I truly appreciate your thoughtful comments and hope to see you again in Japan someday.

    Eiichi was very organized and followed the itinenary as previously arranged. He taught us some useful Japanese words and created a fun quiz to get us familiarized with Japanese culture. It was a nice introductory tour of Tokyo.

    Eliki or "Eddy" was both informative and interesting. He took us to lunch spot for "locals" too! Great tour!
