Konnichiwa! I am Gulay, a professional guide with a deep love for photography, art, and discovering the hidden spirit of Tokyo beyond the typical tourist experience. I have been working as a professional guide since 2008, and have received my training at the Department of Tourism Guidance. I moved to Spain for one year (Las Palmas de Gran Canaria) and worked as a volunteer and mentor in EVS organizations(European Voluntary Service) But then my interest in Japanese culture led me to my current carrier in Tokyo for 8 years. Guiding is my passion, I believe guiding guests that you never met before from totally different countries is a great chance to know people better to improve your skills. As your guide, I will be pleased to share my experience of guiding with you and will do my best to make your holiday a memorable one. I am here to explain the local culture and traditions and give guests other local insights and I will help you to experience the "WOW" factor :) I also deeply love photography and art, which strongly influences the way I explore Tokyo. I am always searching for beautiful light, hidden details, atmosphere, architecture, everyday moments, and places that emotionally capture the city's spirit. Whether it’s quiet backstreets, modern design, nostalgic neighborhoods, cafés, local life, or contemporary art spaces, I love helping guests experience Tokyo in a more visual and emotional way. And if you want, I am happy to customize your itinerary according to your requests, I can help design your experience based on your interests, such as food, fashion, history, art, pop culture in Japan, or something specific. I would love to show you my favorite things about the greatest city in the world! I look forward to exploring Tokyo together with you and sharing my favorite sides of this incredible city!

Niklas F.Austria3 days agoGulay ist ein total lieber Mensch, der genau meine Wünsche für die Tour gespürt hat, obwohl ich keine Vorgaben gemacht habe. Alles hat wunderbar gepasst, es war sehr informativ aber auch unterhaltsam. Das nicht offensichtliche Tokyo zu entdecken war ein tolles, gemeinsames Erlebnis!

Our tours with Gulay were a full year in the making! We originally planned to visit Japan in October 2025 but had to reschedule, finally making it to Tokyo in November 2026. We'd initially booked Gulay's "Kickstart" tour and decided to keep that reservation while adding a half-day tour as well. From our first correspondence a year earlier to finally meeting in person,...

Guluy could not have been a better guides! She was so knowledgeable of the city, the history and where to take shortcuts to avoid congested areas. She knew every specialty food place. She was kind, patient, fun and easy to understand. Also she helped us learn the train system. We covered so much in 4 hours - our entire family group was so impressed. Highly recommend!

Such a wonderful tour! Me(26) and my mother(68) asked Gulay to help us get acclimated to Tokyo. Gulay showed us how to navigate the train system while also giving us some general information on etiquette. She let us totally personalize our tour and was very accommodating, she also had great history and tidbits to tell us as we walked around the city.
