Hi! My name is Nobu and I am a professional and experienced tour guide in Tokyo, Japan. I have been working as a government-licensed private tour guide since 2007. Welcome to Tokyo! I have a special passion to make people from all different cultures feel Tokyo is their hometown. I am a friendly and cheerful person and treat my guests as if they were my friends. I know Tokyo from its famous tourist attractions and museums to its off the beaten path neighborhoods, along with the CULTURE and the HISTORY as I am organizing tour-guide association 'Japan Culture Club'. I can show you things that you won't see on a regular tour bus. And I like to give interesting insights of Tokyoite life, therefore instead of having a monologue-type observation of the city, you will inter into friendly discussion and learn about the country through local eyes. Later in the day when you get thirsty and hungry from exploring I can assist you in finding the best Sake and Japanese food the city has to offer, from the Japanese beer joint, as well as the fanciest restaurants. I also like to drink and I am a Japanese Sake sommelier too. I am used to working with smaller groups so I offer very personal service always according to my guest's interests and wishes. Areas to be visited can be tailored to suit your particular interests. I am available from 8:00 am - 11 pm, 7 days a week including public holidays at very short notice! We make extensive use of public transport in the vast majority of my walking tours to give you a real feel of what it is like to live in Tokyo. HOPE YOU WILL ENJOY MY TOURS!

Overview of your Tokyo tour
Welcome to Kamakura! During this amazing full-day private walking tour, I will take you to the most popular sights of Kamakura. I am a government licensed local tour guide with more than 15 years' experience. Kamakura locates 50Km southwest of Tokyo and enjoyed a period as the Shogun's capital from late 12th century to mid 14th century. It is home to many famous temples and historical sites and remains very popular with visitors from both inside and outside Japan. Only about an hour's train ride from Tokyo station, it is perfect for a day's outing. I've lived in near Kamakura and spent for most of my youth days, I know most of the corners and the details of this beautiful City. I will show you the special things that make Kamakura great.
Your Tokyo tour itinerary
Meet at your hotel in Tokyo. I will pick you up from your hotel and the tour will be disbanded at Kamakura train station. Don't worry I will teach you how you will go back to your hotel and I will buy your return tickets, too. *Kotokuin Temple (Great Buddha): I will take you to the huge "Open-air Buddha" watching over us without an umbrella, regardless of the weather. *Hase Temple: The compound of Hase temple is called the Paradise of the Pure Land of Kamakura. This place commands a superb view. You have an unbroken view of Yuigahama and Zaimokuza beaches. *Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine: The extensive grounds with plenty of natural greenery. A popular choice for the first prayer of the year, the shrine welcomes more than 2. 3 million visitors in the first three days of the New Year. *Komachi Street: Lined on both sides with stalls, restaurants and souvenir shops, it's a spectacle in itself-busy, cheerful and bustling on weekends with visitors who come to join the action.
