Hello everyone, My name is Shin. I am very pleased that you have chosen Japan as your travel destination among so many countries. As a nationally licensed professional guide (in English and German), I have been introducing the wonders of Japan to many international visitors since 2017. This has been a truly valuable and meaningful time in my life. Originally, I worked as an engineer at a steel manufacturing company for 40 years. During that time, I gained extensive experience working internationally. I have a strong interest in the cultures and arts of different countries. However, what I value most are the wonderful encounters and friendships between people. I mainly work as a tour guide in and around Tokyo. On the other hand, my hometown is Kyoto. If you would like information about Kyoto, Osaka, Nara, or other areas, please feel free to contact me. I would be delighted to help make your trip to Japan a wonderful stage in your life. Thank you very much for reading. Hallo zusammen, mein Name ist Shin. Ich freue mich sehr, dass Sie Japan als Ihr Reiseziel gewählt haben. Als staatlich lizenzierter professioneller Guide stelle ich seit 2017 zahlreichen ausländischen Gästen Japan vor. Diese Tätigkeit ist für mich eine äußerst wertvolle Erfahrung, die ich als einen wahren Schatz betrachte. Ursprünglich war ich Ingenieur in einem Stahlunternehmen. Etwa 40 Jahre lang war ich als Geschäftsmann tätig und habe dabei vielfältige Auslandserfahrungen gesammelt. Ich interessiere mich sehr für ausländische Kulturen, Kunst und Essgewohnheiten. Was mir jedoch am wichtigsten ist, sind wunderbare Begegnungen zwischen Menschen über Ländergrenzen hinweg sowie gegenseitige Empathie und Verständnis. Derzeit arbeite ich hauptsächlich als Tourguide in Tokio und Umgebung. Meine Heimat ist jedoch Kyoto, und dort kenne ich mich sehr gut aus. Wenn Sie Informationen über Kyoto, Osaka oder Nara wünschen, kontaktieren Sie mich bitte gern. Ich möchte Ihnen dabei helfen, dass Ihre Japanreise zu einer wunderbaren Bühne in Ihrem Leben wird. Vielen Dank, dass Sie sich die Zeit genommen haben, meinen Text zu lesen. - National Government Licensed Guide Interpreter for English and German.

1. Imperial Palace. This is the residence of the Emperor, until the 19th century it was the castle of a samurai general. I'd like to show you the beautiful Japanese gardens. 2. Tsukiji Market. Let's enjoy fresh Japanese flavors together. There are many interesting and unusual foods. 3. Asakusa. In the area around Sensoji Temple, built in the 7th century, we can enjoy not only the temple but also local restaurants and sweets. 1. Kaiserpalast. Dies ist die Residenz des Kaisers, war aber bis ins 19. Jahrhundert die Burg eines Samurai-Generals. Ich möchte Ihnen die wunderschönen japanischen Gärten zeigen. 2. Tsukiji-Markt. Lassen Sie uns gemeinsam die frischen japanischen Aromen genießen. Es gibt viele interessante und ungewöhnliche Speisen. 3. Asakusa. In der Gegend rund um den Sensoji-Tempel aus dem 7. Jahrhundert kann man neben dem Tempel auch lokale Restaurants und Süßwaren genießen.
Shin is an excellent guide! In advance the contact with him was an interactive discussion to fulfill our needs and interests. His plan was exactly on the spot. Information skills and flexibility are very professional! He supports us and is always able to answer questions and overcome challenges. A very friendly and respectful person. We can highly recommend Shin for the Tokio tour in German language!
🙏 vielen lieben DANK das Sie uns Ihre Stadt nicht nur gezeigt sondern auch näher gebracht haben !!! Auch Ihre ganze Vorbereitung haben wir sehr zu schätzen gewusst ! Liebe Grüße Daniel & Cindy
Our guide Shin was superb from the moment we secured his services. I wrote to him through the website with several questions weeks before the tour date. Shin was extremely helpful not only answering questions but also sharing his ideas. It was great to meet Shin at the start of our tour. We had already seen the tour schedule so knew the locations we would be visiting. Shin is extremely professional, very knowledgeable and personable. An experienced man with a strong professional network. Our family learned a lot on the tour, thanks to Shin’s professional approach and knowledge. I would recommend Shin’s services 1000%. THANK YOU 🙏
Shin was amazing, very knowledgeable and nice. He was great with the kids. Gave us nice restaurant suggestions even for our next town.
Wir hatten den besten Begleiter, den man sich für eine Tour in Tokio nur vorstellen kann! Er holte uns wie vereinbart am Kreuzfahrtterminal ab und zeigte uns mit einer unvorstellbaren Freude, aber auch mit seiner besonderen Art von Diskretion und Gastfreundschaft, die Sehenswürdigkeiten seiner Heimatstadt. Wir waren sehr angetan von seiner Art, wie er uns seine Stadt gezeigt hat. Wir hatten einen wunderbar tollen Tag und durften mit ihm zusammen eine Brücke schlagen.
Knowledgeable, flexible, family friendly, and most highly recommended guide. We purposefully booked with Mr. Shin for the second time, and will book again at every opportunity. Customized our itinerary to suit our requirements and ensured entry into destinations was convenient. He also helped us with train passes and making dinner reservations at our favorite place in Shibuya. Elevates and enhances the experience and he will create cherished memories. Book Mr Shin for your tour!! #1 Guide!!!
