Hi there! My name is Justin, and I'm a proud local host in the vibrant city of Kyoto. This city has a special place in my heart because of its rich culture and fascinating history. From the mix of heritage and modern architecture to the stories of the people and places that make this city unique, there's always something new to discover here. One of my favorite things to do in Kyoto is to explore its different neighborhoods on foot. From the bustling streets of the Sakyo area to the tranquility of the Arashiyama, each neighborhood has its own personality and charm. And, as a foodie, I'm always on the lookout for the latest and greatest food spots. The food scene in Kyoto is always evolving, and I love trying new dishes and cuisines. But what I'm really passionate about is the history and architecture of Kyoto. I'm an expert on the historically significant buildings and hidden artworks in the downtown area, and I love sharing these fascinating stories with my guests. Whether you're interested in architecture, or art, or just want to learn more about the city's history, I'm here to show you the best that Kyoto has to offer. I believe touring is a great responsibility and a good tour guide needs to become a leader and role model for his customers. This year I am so honored to be selected as Kyoto Prefecture Friendship Ambassador . As an ambassador, I'm able to share my culture with everyone around Kyoto and in turn, listen to and understand their cultures. I like hunting down the most delicious Japanese food in the backseats of Kyoto and having beer break after exploring the city. Going over the horizon and finding new things and weird stuff in our nature, I want to learn and discover until I can better comprehend not only the world but myself. Kyoto Prefecture Friendship Ambassador I still don't have a driver's license in Japan but I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.
