Hello! Konnichiwa!                            My name is Sachiko. I am a government licensed tour guide living in Sayama city near Tokyo and would love to show you all over my home country Japan. From the ever-popular tourist hot spots like Sensoji Temple in Asakusa, to the more unusual and rather unique local sites like Golden Gai in Shinjuku. Let me share personalized stories with you that will enhance your understanding of Japanese culture and its long history. I am a quite experienced tour guide. I have delivered tours for more than 1, 200 travel days since I received my license in 2006. I can create detailed customized tours, from single participant to large groups of 40 people. I will also be able to arrange a car, a van or a bus for your convenient transportation. I can build from a half day tour to a 2-week tour which is called "the golden route tour of Japan" . Please tell me all about your interests and the kind of places you would like to see. I am proud of my flexibility with scheduling to meet all of your needs, helping to make the most of your valuable time here. Before becoming a tour guide, I operated a language school in my place of residence for more than 15 years. I like to cook, visit art museums and do Japanese calligraphy. I also like to travel around the world and had great fun in many places which I visited. Because of my experience in intercultural business and my hobbies, I believe that I can meet all of your travel needs. I always enjoy meeting people and making new friends. Let's travel together!

Overview of your Tokyo tour

As an introduction of Tokyo, you can visit 3 or 4 major sightseeing spots for five hours by van. Chartering a van or a taxi will take you to the best destinations as fast as possible. You can save time instead of walking from the stations to the sightseeing spots and avoid going up & down the many stairs at the stations.   Tokyo is a blend of pop culture and historical ancient culture. There are innumerable captivating attractions to see and experience. My favorite part of this tour is when I take you to Asakusa Sensoji Temple and Harajuku because I can show you two completely different type of sites in Tokyo within a limited time. First, we visit Imperial Palace, the present Emperor's residence. Then we go to Asakusa Sensoji Temple, one of the oldest temples in Tokyo and Nakamise shopping arcade. After strolling Asakusa we will stroll Ginza, the most prestigious shopping area in Japan. From there we will visit Omotesando & Takeshita Streets in Harajuku.
