Hello, I’m Kiyo, a National Licensed, English-speaking private guide based in Tokyo and surrounding areas. Before becoming a professional guide, I volunteered for nearly twelve years in Tokyo and Kyoto, welcoming visitors from around the world. For the past three years, I have worked as a private guide, continuing my passion for helping guests understand Japan beyond the surface. Tokyo is a city where modern life and long traditions exist side by side, and the many choices can feel overwhelming. Not being born and raised here, I understand that well. Discovering Tokyo step by step myself helps me guide you at a comfortable pace. I was born and raised in Kobe, in the Kansai region, known for its warm, people-centered culture. I value meaningful conversation and aim to create relaxed experiences — whether exploring history, local neighborhoods, or contemporary culture. Although I am new to this platform, I have received consistent five-star feedback from guests through other agencies. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or ideas you would like to discuss. I look forward to welcoming you to Japan.
