Hello and welcome to Kyoto! My name is Tess and I am an experienced tour guide with 6 years of experience showing visitors around Kyoto, Osaka, and Nara. As a self-proclaimed foodie, I am always on the lookout for the most delicious street food and the coziest Izakaya in town. I have extensive knowledge of Japanese wine, and I can point you in the direction of the best restaurants and special cuisine that are sure to satisfy your taste buds. Whether you are a connoisseur or simply enjoy trying new things, I can guarantee you an unforgettable culinary experience. In addition to my love for food, I also have a strong passion for Japanese history and culture. Having worked at the Samurai and Ninja museum, as well as a kimono and teahouse for three years, I have gained a wealth of knowledge about the customs and traditions of Japan. Whether you're interested in learning about the history of the samurai or the art of the tea ceremony, I can offer you an insightful and engaging tour. As your tour guide, I am committed to making your visit to Kyoto as enjoyable and memorable as possible. With my enthusiasm, positive attitude, and insider knowledge, I can help you discover the best that this city has to offer. So why not let me show you around and introduce you to the wonders of Kyoto? I'm looking forward to meeting you! 3 years - Samurai and Ninja museum tour guide 1 year - Maikoya tea house Kimono and hairdresser. I do not have any restrictions in regard to my guiding, I can offer a full range of experiences.
