About Me: Welcome to Tokyo. Your time here is precious, and my mission is to make every moment count. My name is Keiji. I am a private guide dedicated to crafting seamless, deep, and personalized travel experiences for discerning guests. I offer a unique blend of skills: With a background in Mechanical Engineering, I manage tour logistics with precision and logic to ensure a stress-free day. Yet, as a certified Reiki healer and Dual Pilgrim, I also focus on the "invisible" atmosphere—helping you connect with the deep spiritual energy of Japan. Why guests choose me: A "Dual Pilgrim" Perspective: I am a passionate walker who has conquered both UNESCO pilgrimage routes. I walked 1,000 km across Spain (Camino de Santiago) in 2019 and completed 130 km of the Kumano Kodo in the summer of 2025. These experiences taught me resilience and true hospitality. I bring this energy and endurance to every tour. Beyond History: At shrines and temples, I don’t just recite dates. I interpret the "Ki" (energy), the metaphysics, and the spiritual presence of the land, offering a narrative you won’t find in guidebooks. Your Trusted Partner: Think of me not just as a guide, but as a local friend with professional standards. Whether we are navigating the neon lights of modern Tokyo or the silence of a Zen garden, I adjust the pace and content entirely to your interests. My Background: Logic & Precision: B.S. in Mechanical Engineering, Musashi Institute of Technology. (Ensuring smooth planning and time management). Active Dual Pilgrim: Certified completist of both UNESCO World Heritage routes. Spain: Camino de Santiago (approx. 1,000 km, 2019) Japan: Kumano Kodo (approx. 130 km, Summer 2025) Wellness: Certified Jikiden Reiki Healer. Communication: English (TOEIC 805 certified). I love deep conversations about culture, science, and metaphysics. Transportation Note: I specialize in walking tours and utilizing Japan’s world-class public transit for an immersive experience. For your comfort, I can arrange a luxury private vehicle and driver upon request (additional fee applies). I look forward to welcoming you to Japan and creating an unforgettable journey together.
