My name is Eiko. When I was in my twenties, I worked as a cabin attendant for an international airline. I've traveled around the world and visited more than 30 countries. It's been a while since then, and most things are vague at the back of my mind, but I still clearly remember small talks exchanged with locals, and interesting stories I heard from guides. Some personal touch goes the extra mile and makes your trip special. I would like to be a guide to be remembered and make you smile whenever you cast your mind back to the trip to Japan. While raising two daughters, I studied English hard to be a teacher and an interpreter. I enjoy being a teacher and I realized that I like talking and get to know people. I worked as an interpreter in business world as well. I certainly enjoyed the job, but now I want to do something different. Guiding a tour has been my dream job, but I was always too busy, then COVID 19 pandemic came. A lot of my work is gone, and I am not as busy as I used to. Now that I think the COVID 19 was a blessing in disguise. It has given me a chance to be a tour guide. Also, I've turned 60. Sixty is an important age in Japan and many leave their job and start to have more relaxing life, as we believe that we are reborn at the age of 60. Look at my birthday picture. Wearing a red vest and a cap to show that you are a baby again! Red-chan means "baby" in Japanese. I would like to start my new life being a guide and get to know more people from abroad. Welcome to Nagoya, and my place in Okazaki!

Eiko is a High School English teacher with terrific English. Very knowledgeable. Really nice and interesting person. We had a terrific day with her that we customized to exactly what we wanted. If you like Samuri check out the Touken Museum. It's amazing. We hired a car and it was top notch with an excellent driver.
Eiko was amazing. She was local with great English and we didn't want to do the touristy spots in Nagoya, so she tailored our day to local highlights of her hometown. It was a lot of fun and we learned a lot. It was a really personalised cultural experience. Her communication and coordination pre us starting were incredible. It meant we had plenty of time to decide on exactly what we wanted to do and made it easy to get together and meet up on the day. We would highly recommend Eiko for anyone wanting a personalised day trip.
Had a wonderful tour with great guide and driver. Was able to customize tour to include scenic sights. Highly recommend to travelers visiting Nagoya area.
Our best tour yet. Nagoya was wonderful, great food, impressive castle, great vibrant city. But we most enjoyed our tour guide Eiko. She was extremely friendly and kind to us. Very professional with a lot of knowledge and materials prepared so that we could understand the history of the city and its importance on the history of Japan. We saw everything we had planned and enjoyed an amazing meal in a nice restaurant. She embraced our group and our culture and we bonded as new friends. I recommend 100% Eiko for your next adventure in Nagoya.
Eiko-San is the best tour guide ever! This was my first time to Nagoya and she led an incredibly fun, memorable and insightful tour for me. She made my parents and I smile so much throughout the entire day. She is as knowledgeable as she is kindhearted and we absolutely loved having her as our tour guide. If you are visiting Nagoya- I truly cannot recommend Eiko-San enough! Thank you Eiko-San for such an amazing day!
Eiko is a charming, warm hearted person who I was so happy to meet. She worked very hard to put together an off the beaten path tour in the Nagoya area that appealed to my husband’s and my differing tastes. Her driver was also very nice and attentive. Arigato Eiko! Until we met again
