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!

Overview of your Nagoya tour

Now you're in Aichi, why not Toyota? In addition to many cultural and architectural sights that Japan is rich in, today I invite you to visit the Toyota Car Museum, a unique retrospective of the technological heritage of Japanese industry. A place where you will witness and admire luxury cars from various periods of history. Learn the history of the automobile industry in Japan and its role in society and popular culture. The museum is not only for car lovers, but also for children or all of you who love cars. A wide variety of car models are on display, from the first passenger car produced by Toyota to the latest hydrogen-powered Mirai. The museum shop and cultural section are full of car-related items such as postage stamps or car mascots. See cars produced in different time periods, in Europe, USA and Japan. The doors of the first car produced by Toyota open from the center to the right and left. The horns are squeezed by hand between the legs. Have fun looking at confusing vehicles!
