Hi, I am Junko, a national licensed tour guide in English. I can also speak Italian to have a normal conversation. I was born and raised in Tokyo so I could say that I know Tokyo inside out. I believe Tokyo is one of the most beautiful and traditional cities as well as a modern and exciting one. In addition to famous tourist sites, there remain many attractions and must-see spots that are not well known among tourists. I have experiences in Japanese calligraphy, flower arrangement, and tea ceremony. I love flowers and visiting gardens. I also love cooking and eating. I like Japanese history and cultures that are closely related to Japanese religions, Shintoism and Buddhism. So I studied Buddhism for two years in English to provide foreign visitors with information about Japanese history and cultures more properly. I have had experiences of guiding foreign tourists as a volunteer guide for several years before becoming a licensed tour guide in 2017. So I can give you useful suggestions in traveling Japan. I truly like meeting people from different countries and cultures, and sharing the fun of discovering Tokyo and its vicinity. I can always tailor the tour to fit your interests and prepare an itinerary so that your stay will be unforgettable. Why don't you explore Tokyo with me? Please feel free to contact me at any time! I am looking forward to meeting you in Tokyo. - National Government Licensed Tour Guide (Registration number EN04937) - Certified Domestic Tour and Travel Planner I am not a driver.

    Junko was genuine helpful & knowledgeable. She really managed to get us in & around the enormous crowds at the fish market, & gave us a more authentic insight into how Tokyo residents really manage their shopping! It was fabulous seeing all the amazing fresh produce & I gorged myself on the incredible seasonable strawberries. We had a lovely walk strings some of the more...

    What a terrific time we had with Junko during our 2 days of touring the beautiful city of Tokyo. She accommodated our requests, took us to beautiful shrines, gardens, bustling markets and to the Ginza where we shopped and had lunch. She is a whiz navigating the complex subway system which we could never navigate on our own. She also took us through local residential...
