Hello! I'm Akiko. I am a national government licensed guide interpreter and a certified domestic tour conductor in Japan. I became a guide because I wanted to share the history, culture, and craftsmanship of Japan with visitors from around the world. I specialize in central Japan, especially Aichi Prefecture and Nagoya. In Nagoya, we explore historic castles and shrines connected to Japan's samurai history, as well as lively modern districts. I live in Seki City, Gifu Prefecture, a world-renowned center of sword-making and cutlery production with over 700 years of history. Here you can experience the living tradition of Japanese craftsmanship. By combining Nagoya's samurai heritage with Seki's blade-making culture, I offer a unique perspective on Japanese history that goes beyond typical sightseeing. I developed my English communication skills through teaching and years of guiding experience in Japan. I prioritize your safety and comfort at all times. I am also happy to adjust the tour based on your interests, pace, and preferences to create a personalized experience. Most of my tours are conducted using public transportation, but I am happy to arrange a taxi if it is more convenient. I would like to make your tour a fun and memorable experience. If you have any requests or questions, please feel free to reach out. I will do my best to accommodate your needs. I look forward to meeting you in Nagoya!

Gujo Hachiman is a peaceful town where you can hear the soothing sound of clear streams. It is about less than two hours from Nagoya. As you stroll through the town, you can experience the local lifestyle, where water is always close to daily life. At the museum, you can also enjoy experiencing a traditional Bon Odori dance. If you wish, we can also arrange a food replica-making experience for you. Please come and spend a relaxing, unhurried time in Gujo Hachiman. If your group consists of four or more participants, please let me know.

If you take a highway bus, I recommend you use Nagoya Gujo Hirugano Line. Please board at Platform 7 on the 3rd floor of the Meitetsu Bus Center. It leaves Meitetsu Bus center at 8:40 and reaches Gujo Hachiman Castle Town Plaza at 10:15 a.m. I will meet you there. After the tour, we will say goodbye at the same bus stop. The bus leaves at 4:10 p.m. I would appreciate it if you could make a reservation for a bus seat using Highway Bus.com . The fare is 2,400 yen one way.
