Best of Nagoya in 6 Hours - Private Customized Tour

Hi everyone, my name is Tomoko, but please call me Tommie. As a nationally licensed guide, I specialize in curated private cultural experiences that connect guests with the deeper and more authentic side of Japan. Over the years, I have come to appreciate not only Japan’s famous landmarks, but also the quiet beauty found in everyday life, local craftsmanship, regional food culture, and meaningful human connections. You may have already visited major destinations such as Tokyo or Kyoto and explored many of Japan’s iconic landmarks. While those cities are undeniably beautiful, they are often crowded with tourists. For travelers seeking a more authentic and relaxed experience, Nagoya is truly a hidden gem. With its rich samurai history, unique local food culture, and traditional craftsmanship with over 400 years of history, Nagoya offers visitors the opportunity to experience a more genuine side of Japan without overwhelming crowds. During my 14 years living abroad, I was deeply supported by the kindness and helpfulness of local people in every country where I lived. Without their warmth, my life overseas would not have been the same. Now that I have returned to my hometown of Nagoya, I feel it is my turn to give back some of the kindness and hospitality I once received from others around the world. From historic craft towns and refined local cuisine to hidden gardens and everyday traditions, I curate thoughtful journeys designed to be personal, authentic, and memorable. My hope is not simply to show places, but to create meaningful cultural connections and lasting memories for every guest who visits Nagoya.
