Hi, I’m Yoshi, please call me Yoshi. “Yoshi” means “OK” in Japanese. I was born in Miyagi prefecture of Tohoku, and I had been working for Japan’s Civil Aviation Bureau as a flight inspector for a long time, so I am familiar with all airports and around areas throughout Japan. Tohoku is a region in northeastern Japan, famous for its beautiful, peaceful and powerful nature all year round: Spring: Cherry blossoms bloom beside rivers, mountains and old castleys. Summer: Fresh green forests, clear lakes and cool mountain air. Autumn: Mountains turn red, orange and gold with autumn leaves. Winter: Deep snow creates magical landscapes and hot springs. Tohoku also has preserved many traditional festivals, crafts and customs: colorful summer festivals with music, dancing, and lanterns; traditional handmade crafts, such as lacquerware and textiles; historic samurai towns, shrines and temples; Tohoku’s food uses fresh local ingredients from the mountains, fields and sea; seasonal vegetables, rice and seafood; warm comfort foods for cold winters; traditional dishes passed down through generations; simple, healthy, and full of natural flavor — this is the taste of Tohoku. Of course, there are lots of high-quality SAKE, Beer and Whiskey in Tohoku! So far, in addition to bus tours at ports across the Tohoku region, I have guided international visitors to Hakodate in Hokkaido, Kyoto and Kagoshima Prefecture. I have also experienced as an interpreter at the Memorial Museums in Tohoku for Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011. Let’s enjoy an unforgettable journey through Japan together!

Overview of your Sendai tour

Matsushima is celebrated as one of Japan’s Three Most Scenic Views, known for its calm bay dotted with hundreds of pine-covered islands and its deep connection to Zen Buddhism and samurai history.

With comfortable door-to-door transportation, you will visit Matsushima Bay’s scenic viewpoints, historic islands, and important temples such as Zuiganji and Entsu-in. Walking routes are kept manageable, and the schedule is carefully paced to ensure a smooth daytime experience. This tour is ideal for travelers who prefer comfort, flexibility, and a deeper cultural understanding rather than rushing through crowded spots.
