Shimane tour - Adachi Museum and Yushien Garden - private shore excursion from Sakaiminato

Hi, I'm Ritsuko. I was born and raised in Shimane. I lived in other cities through my career and study. Shimane's abundant natural beauty brought me back here when I started my career as a guide. I started guiding for tourists as a local volunteer guide and has been serving as a national certified guide since 2014. I really like meeting people from around the world. Nothing is more fun and valuable than listening to them and sharing views and thoughts. In my earlier career, I had served as a speech and communication therapist at hospitals for 11 years. I provided individual rehabilitation programs for patients who has various language problems and needs. I have met a lot of people in different generations. Personality, interest and background are different from people to people. Through my career, I have acquired skills to catch what he or she needs and provided suitable service for them. My clients are happy with my smile, attentiveness and easy-to-understand guide. I offer tours mainly in Shimane and Tottori. Tourists choose here to relax in the serene atmosphere, enjoy abundant nature, to experience our distinctive culture and history. They end up in finding something really Japanese. Japanese culture is based on the myths. Shimane and Tottori are well known as home to myths. Gods in the myths are enshrined at a lot of shrines existing since ancient times. Unique culture and tradition related to the myths has been well reserved in the life of local people. We have varieties of tourist attractions. Matsue Castle, one of only 12 original castles in Japan. It stands by a beautiful lake. Walking around the castle gives an opportunity to feel the atmosphere of 400 years ago. With luck, you might come across Samurai! Adachi Museum of Art is a must to see. It has spectacular Japanese gardens top ranked for many consecutive years, but also has precious Japanese modern and contemporary art collections. I'm sure you feel enriched there. What are your interests? I'd be very happy to customize the tour and help you enjoy every minute of your stay. I hope to see you soon!
