Hi there! My name is Hiro, I am here to help you make the best memories in Japan. I love art, culture, history and food. I'm a Tokyo local, but whenever I have free time, I always roam around Tokyo looking for something interesting or something new. I worked for a Japanese financial institution for over 35 years, and was in charge of global alternative investments such as private equities and real estate investments. I have worked with various kinds of people from all over the world. I always enjoy spending time with them. Around three decades ago, I visited Australia for the first time. At that time, I didn't know much about Sidney, Australia, but a guide showed me around the town. She took me to many interesting and exciting spots and explained its culture and histories. She made my trip extremely special. It was long time ago, but I still remember her name, face and what she did for me clearly. She became part of my great memories of that trip. That's why I decided to be a guide. I got the National Government License for Guide Interpreter in 2017. Then I started to work as a guide interpreter. I joined a team of Tokyo 2020 Olympic Game's official volunteers and was in charge of volleyball games. I helped many athletes in the game venue. I paid a lot of attention to providing support for them, especially because they tended to get nervous before their important matches. This opportunity was a great learning experience about how to support people from other countries. Unfortunately there were no spectators at all due to the Covid-19. Because of this, I was not able to meet many guests from all over the world. But, it's ok, because now you are here. Are you looking for a wonderful experience in Tokyo? If so, don't hesitate to call me. I would love to help you make your stay in Tokyo memorable and special. National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter (English) Tokyo 2020 Olympic Game's official volunteer member I am not a driver but can arrange for a car and driver.

    Hiro-san is one of the best guides we’ve ever had. He showed us in and around Hakone, we rode the ropeway to the top of a volcano, and we ate the famous black eggs. To top it off, we had a wonderful lunch at a brewery that serves delicious wagyu beef. You cannot go wrong!

    I also enjoyed spending time with you in Hakone as well as Tokyo. Although the weather was not ideal, I will always remember the unique experience of the Owakudani ropeway and our enjoyable conversations throughout the day. I can still picture your smiles as you enjoyed local craft beer and Wagyu beef at the brewery. Moments like those made me feel almost like part of...

    Excellent tour! Three days, and each was a different and unique area of Tokyo. Lunch was always excellent. One member of our family had some food allergies, and Hiro made sure with the restaurants that everything was ok to eat. Great stories, and, now, great memories. Thank you, Hiro, for an unbeatable time in Japan. Highly recommend, 10/10!

    Hiro met my expectations as an experienced and knowledgeable guide, and my friend and I had two very enjoyable days with him. Our chartered taxi tour included a thoughtful mix of stops that Hiro suggested and places I requested, which made the experience feel both well-planned and personal. He also recommended fabulous lunch spots both days, which added to our enjoyment...

    We will never forget the time we spent in Japan with Hiro and our driver, Sam. Hiro made our entire trip truly outstanding by preparing us to appreciate the remarkable scenery, history, and culture of Tokyo. From viewing the Imperial Palace to enjoying the beautiful landscapes of Shinjuku Gyoen National Garden and Hama-rikyu Gardens, touring Meiji Jingu and the Samurai...
