Licensed private guide in Nagoya specializing in Japanese culture. Having lived in Poland, I provide clear and easy-to-understand insights into Japan. What my guests say: “Maki tracked our delayed cruise and adjusted everything perfectly — very professional and reliable.” “Her explanations at Nagoya Castle were incredibly informative — things we would never have understood on our own.” “Friendly, flexible, and thoughtful — even prepared umbrellas for our comfort. Highly recommended.”
