*Please send a message BEFORE booking. Konnichiwa, and welcome to Tokyo! Hi there, I'm Hideki, a National Licensed English Speaking Tour Guide, and my goal is to help you have an unforgettable journey that works with your personal taste. I myself have traveled to 40 countries in the world and 46 prefectures (states or provinces) in Japan, so I fully understand how travelers feel, expectation and uncertainty. Tokyo is an exciting place. In the heart of Tokyo, you can experience both traditional and modern culture. On top of that, you can also experience new cultures popular among young people, such as anime, manga and KAWAII fashion. In the western part of Tokyo, you can enjoy the beauty of nature that will renew your perception of Tokyo. Tokyo is filled with things that will tickle your curiosity and excite you!! Before starting this job, I worked for a global company. After taking early retirement from the company, I studied abroad in the U. S. for a year and a half on my own accord. I understand different cultures and diversity. I am open minded, friendly and flexible. I'm looking forward to meeting you. I can customize my tours according to your needs. - National Licenced Tour Guide (English) No.EN04784 - TEFL Certificate (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) at University of California San Diego - English Proficiency Test (EIKEN): Grade 1

July 2026It was a pleasure to visit Kamakura with you. I was glad to hear when you told me that Hasedera was the most beautiful temple you had ever visited. Although there was a long line at the restaurant, we made the most of the wait by spending a peaceful time at the beautiful beach. I still vividly recall seeing you happily chatting with the boy sitting next to you on the...
Hideki is a great person with a big heart and lots of local knowledge. We customized my tour so I could see some things that were of specific interest to me like the blooming wisteria and the quieter temples and shrines. Hideki is quite flexible in this way. He arranged for transportation so we could get around more easily and cover more ground in our day together. I...

July 2026Thank you for the wonderful review. Thanks to your request, I was able to fully enjoy the wisteria flowers in full bloom as well. Please feel free to contact me if you ever come to Tokyo again—after all, we are friends now.
Hedeki crafted a tour of Tokyo that had the right balance of history, architecture, culture and modern day interests. He even tailored an itinerary based on our express interest. Very personable, fun and engaging guide. Excellent communication before and during our tour. Loved it!

July 2026It was a pleasure spending time together in Tokyo. I was genuinely amazed that your son won a stuffed fish from the crane game that is very difficult, and I was also happy that your wife were able to buy the Onitsuka Tiger shoes she had wanted. Although the weather was rainy, we had a truly fulfilling time. Thank you so much!!
This was a great tour for an introduction to Tokyo!
