*Please send a message BEFORE booking. Konnichiwa, and welcome to Tokyo! Hi there, I'm Hideki, a National Licensed English Speaking Tour Guide, and my goal is to help you have an unforgettable journey that works with your personal taste. I myself have traveled to 40 countries in the world and 46 prefectures (states or provinces) in Japan, so I fully understand how travelers feel, expectation and uncertainty. Tokyo is an exciting place. In the heart of Tokyo, you can experience both traditional and modern culture. On top of that, you can also experience new cultures popular among young people, such as anime, manga and KAWAII fashion. In the western part of Tokyo, you can enjoy the beauty of nature that will renew your perception of Tokyo. Tokyo is filled with things that will tickle your curiosity and excite you!! Before starting this job, I worked for a global company. After taking early retirement from the company, I studied abroad in the U. S. for a year and a half on my own accord. I understand different cultures and diversity. I am open minded, friendly and flexible. I'm looking forward to meeting you. I can customize my tours according to your needs. - National Licenced Tour Guide (English) No.EN04784 - TEFL Certificate (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) at University of California San Diego - English Proficiency Test (EIKEN): Grade 1

Overview of your Tokyo tour
*Please send a message BEFORE booking. Only 50 minutes by train from central Tokyo (Shinjuku) lies Mt. Takao, a natural retreat. Blessed with abundant nature, it offers beautiful scenery, fresh air, temples with long histories, local food, and fascinating hiking. Mt. Takao is currently the most visited mountain in the world by mountaineers. On clear days, Mt. Fuji can be seen from the summit. I have lived near Mt. Takao since childhood. I love its nature and history. As a true local guide of this mountain, I offer fun and unique tours only I can provide. If you want me to customize this tour according to your preferences, please just let me know! *This tour is not suitable for those who have difficulty walking or use a cane or walking aids.
