Guide #71713
Hello, I’m Haiyan. Welcome to Japan!I live in Tokyo with my dog. I truly believe every encounter is special, and I cherish meeting travelers from around the world. Japan is a country with a unique cultural background, many social rules, and limited English communication in some situations, so I would like to applaud your courage for taking the adventure to visit this country. Trains are usually very quiet, and even when people talk, they speak softly. In many restaurants or cafés, entering without ordering something may be considered impolite. People also tend to follow schedules and rules carefully, and some places still accept cash only. These are all part of Japan’s unique culture and daily life. I have over 8 years of guiding experience, speak Japanese, English and Chinese and previously lived in the United States for 3 years, so communication is always easy and comfortable. Whether you’re traveling solo or with family, I create fully customized itineraries based on your interests — from must-see highlights to unique local spots. This is a fully private, VIP-style experience, designed exclusively for you and your group, with no other guests involved. My goal is simple: to help you laugh, explore, take great photos, and enjoy Japan like a local. Hope to meet you soon! Haiyan

We wanted to see a smaller town away from busy Tokyo. The day ended up traveling on the bullet train to a seaside town-Atani. We really enjoyed our time with Haiyan. She designed the day just as we wanted!

October 2026Thank you so much, Lynn! It was an absolute pleasure taking you away from the hustle and bustle of Tokyo and exploring the lovely seaside town of Atami together. I'm so glad you enjoyed the shinkansen ride and the customized itinerary! Hope to see you again in Japan!

We had a wonderful tour of Tokyo with Haiyan Z. She was a wonderful guide who took us to a number of unique places in Tokyo (both traditional and modern) and found us a wonderful place to enjoy a very nice lunch. She is very professional and knowledgable and speaks English very well. A fun day overall. We would highly recommend.

We had a great day with Haiyan exploring Yanaka and Asakusa. The highlights included a beautiful (more local) shrine - Nezu Shrine and an incredible ramen shop for lunch. We really enjoyed spending the day with Haiyan and learning about Japanese tradition and what it’s like to actually work and live in Japan. Thank you!
