Hi, I'm Aimie Guiding is my passion, and I love meeting people from all over the world. Traveling is not only a joy but also a chance to learn about different cultures and connect with others. I’ve spent a year in Australia on a working holiday! I enjoy both stepping into nature and discovering hidden urban gems. Over the past year, I’ve had the pleasure of guiding guests and creating unforgettable travel experiences. I’ve worked with various travel agencies and led over 200 tours so far, earning more than 95 five-star reviews from wonderful guests! From authentic cultural tours to fun, pop-style adventures, I love customizing each tour to match your interests. As someone who grew up in Japan, I’m excited to share the stories, traditions, and everyday wonders that make this country so unique. I’ll help you make your trip truly memorable. I can provide insights into local culture, history, art, food, fashion, and pop culture. I especially enjoy designing family-friendly tours where both kids and parents can have fun together. As a mom, I know what children enjoy and make sure everyone feels welcome and cared for. With a touch of Japanese Omotenashi hospitality, you can also expect a few fun surprises along the way! I’m happy to tailor your itinerary to your requests, whether it’s a focus on food, history, art, or something unique you’d like to explore. Let’s explore Japan together like family—I can’t wait to meet you and share the country I love!

Yoshie is an excellent guide! She was flexible with our itinerary for what we wanted to see, and she was very knowledgeable about Tokyo and Japanese culture in general (and we ask a lot of questions!). She also knew several tricks and secrets to see fun and interesting locations while avoiding the big crowds, even while seeing the most popular spots in the busiest day. I highly recommend booking Yoshie’s tour!! And even beyond that, she gave us great recommendations for things to do on our own based on our tastes and interests. We had a wonderful day with her!

My family and I spent our first full day in Tokyo with Yoshie. From the start she was prompt with her replies and was great at accommodating my request for a slower paced off the beaten path day. She took us to places that the entire family could enjoy with art galleries, coffee, used clothing shops, stationary stores and delicious food. She went above and beyond to give us recommendations for future days spent in Tokyo and made us feel so at home in her presence like talking with an old friend. Thank you Yoshie for sharing your knowledge and time with us.

Our day with Yoshie was fantastic and it was totally memorable tour. She made everything easy and comfortable the whole time. During our shopping in Harajuku, she was very flexible and happily adjusted to fit our request. There were a few items I really wanted to find, and thanks to Yoshie, I finally got the Labubu for my nieces. And with so much cat cafe to visit around, she recommended a friendly one and it turned out to be perfect. Yoshie is 10 out of 10! We highly recommend her to everyone visiting Tokyo.
