Hi, I'm Akio, a National Government Licensed Guide based in Yokohama. Since 2016, I have had the privilege of hosting over 800 tailored tours across Tokyo, Yokohama, Kamakura, and Hakone. Originally from Kagawa Prefecture, a region blessed with the beauty of the Seto Inland Sea, I spent 30 years working for a global tech company in Tokyo. Engaging with international colleagues gave me a profound appreciation for Japan through global eyes, inspiring me to transition from a passionate traveler into a professional guide. I have a deep love for authentic cuisine, rich history, and exceptional architecture. Unlike rigid group itineraries, my tours emphasize experiencing "genuine" Japan—connecting you with breathtaking scenery, hidden gems, and the vibrant daily life of the places we visit. Let's craft unforgettable memories together and explore Japan more deeply. Thank you, and I look forward to seeing you in Japan!

If you want to visit a place with traditional Japanese taste, this tour is perfect for you! I'm an experienced national government licensed guide familiar with a historic city, Kamakura. I will take you to the most attractive sites in the old town developed by the samurai. Kamakura is a popular tourist destination located about an hour's train ride from both Tokyo and Yokohama. It boasts a variety of historical sites, including temples and shrines, as well as beautiful natural scenery, surrounded by mountains and the sea. You can also find many charming small shops and restaurants throughout the area. We will explore both must-see attractions and hidden gems in this historic samurai city. This tour can be customized to meet your preferences. I will create a tailor-made itinerary based on your ideas. Please share them with me in advance.
I can arrange an itinerary according to your requests. (Example) 10:00 Meet at JR Kita-Kamakura Station • Engakuji Temple - Quiet Zen temple surrounded by fantastic nature • Kotokuin Temple - Famous for the Great Buddha statue • Hasedera Temple - Beautiful temple with numerous Buddhist statues and a Japanese garden • Houkokuji Temple - Nicknamed a bamboo garden temple • Tsurugaoka Hachimangu Shrine - The heart of Kamakura, enshrining a god of war worshipped by samurai warriors 16:00 Break up at JR Kamakura Station
