After graduating from university, I was assigned to Sapporo as a sales representative, where I spent 16 years. Have you heard of Sapporo? It's the largest city in northern Japan, located in Hokkaido, with a population of 1.7 million. In the winter, you can enjoy skiing and snowboarding, and in the summer, people enjoy spending time in the great outdoors. Hokkaido is surrounded by the sea, making it a treasure trove of seafood. I learned a lot about food during my 16 years here. I can provide the best information for anyone planning a trip to Hokkaido. I then spent four years in Osaka and two years in Sendai before returning to Tokyo. Therefore, I can also provide information about Kyoto and Osaka. But I spent the longest time in Tokyo, where I still live. Therefore, I offer tours centered around Tokyo. I got my guide qualification in 2018, but actually started guiding in 2023. To date, I have guided over 150 foreign visitors to Japan. Having accumulated extensive experience in providing one-day tours within Tokyo for FIT, I offer customizable tours based on guest preferences in areas such as Asakusa, Ueno, Yanaka-Ginza, Meiji Shrine, Harajuku, Shibuya, Tsukiji Outer Market, the Imperial Palace/East Gardens, and various parks throughout the city. My tours are designed to delight all age groups, from seniors to kids. I know the best photo spots so I can provide everyone on the tour with a memorable photo. Guests who join my tours always take lots of photos with a smile on their face.

Overview of your Tokyo tour

This is the best tour for first-time visitors. Through this tour, you will get to know about the various faces of Tokyo, such as history, tradition, society, good food, safeness and organized public transportation system. I’ll let you know the basics of how to go around by public transportation system, which will be helpful when you do that by yourself. At Meiji Jingu shrine, a Shinto shrine dedicated to Meiji Emperor, you can have a nice healing walk through the city-center forest to the shrine and pray for wishes. In Shibuya, you can enjoy the famous world's busiest crossing and see the Hatchi statue, a movie-featured dog. The Imperial Palace/East Garden is a remnant of Edo Castle, and you will be amazed at its grandeur. In Asakusa, you will visit Sensoji temple, the oldest Buddhist temple in Tokyo. The tour ends here. ”You can be a fun of Tokyo”
