Kyoto Private Tours & Local Tour Guides

Hello ! My name is Akira, but please call me Aki. I am a national licensed tour guide in English. I am specialized in Kyoto, Osaka, Nara, Kobe and Hiroshima. When you have a plan to visit those area, please contact me. In those area, you can find a traditional and cultural Japan. I will guide you wherever you would like to visit and you can enjoy Japan with me for sure. I worked for an export company for more than 30years and met many people from overseas who were interested in Japanese culture, history and buildings. So after I retired, I decided to become a tour guide. Please let me know what and where you are interested in so that I can arrange it for you, and make your itinerary which you will be satisfied with. In my spare time, my hobby is Japanese martial art Aikido (black belt 2nd grade). If you are interested in Japanese martial art, I am pleased to talk about it with you. Looking forward to your inquiry. Thank you so much for reading my introduction, and I look forward to sharing my country with you.

Hi! My name is Kiriko, you can call me Kitty :) I graduated from an university in Thailand, and I was majoring in Tourism Management. Throughout my life abroad, I could see a lot of interesting, attractive and beautiful sides of Japan which I did not even realize when I was there, and that’s how I decided to be a tour guide because I would love to introduce my beautiful country to more people around the world! As a traveler myself, I will try to give the best times to you offering not only basic information but also travel tips and interesting facts that you may actually need. Please feel free to contact me if you’re looking for a memorable experience in Japan!

Hola!, “Konnichiwa”. Soy Yoji Kobori, (llámeme Yoji), guía individual para pareja, familia, grupo de amigos, etc, y Guía Certificado Nacional. Encantado y bienvenidos a Japón. Nací, crecí y vivo en Kioto, y soy guía veterano con muchas experiencias que llevo 8 años haciendo de guía. Le recomiendo las rutas reputadas establecidas en mi perfil porque en las rutas se condensan las buenísimas cosas japonesas. Por supuesto podremos cambiarlos por algunos lugares que le gusten. También puedo hacer de guía a los lugares pocos turistas tranquilos que se encuentran en Kioto, Nara, Osaka, etc. Si quiere probar la comida japonesa auténtica, los llevaré a un restaurante típico japonés tradicional con varios platos que se come bien en Kioto. Me encantaría que disfrutaran de excursión con migo. Estoy deseando a verlos! Espero su contacto. Yoji

Hi,I'm Hiroyuki Fukui. Please call me Hiro. I'm a government certified guide interpreter. I'm originally from Gifu Prefecture located in Central Japan and have lived in Nara city for more than twenty years. I used to be a civil engineer working for a construction company and experienced overseas projects mainly in South Pacific region for about nine years. During my stay abroad, I had an opportunity to look Japan from outside and realized the beauty of Japan from different point of view. Now I retired from the company and I'm guiding foreign visitors mainly over Kansai district including Nara, Kyoto and Osaka to help them know more about the history, the culture and the people of Japan. I'm looking forward to serving you soon. Thank you.
