About

Hi, everybody,

My name is Masato, which literally means an honest person in Japanese.

I am trying to introduce the inbound tourists as many traditional matters(custom, foods, historical buildings and so on ) and beautiful nature as possible.

I was born and live in a city adjacent to Tokyo, and worked for publishing company as a reporter, and for international advertising agency and multinational automobile tire manufacturer in Tokyo city ares for about forty years long in total.

With these experience and my age, I have a confidence to explain enough about Tokyo and many other major sightseeing areas such as Kyoto, Osaka, Nara, Kanazawa and other places popular among foreign tourists. It is not easy to do so for young guides.

However, when you would like me to guide outside areas of Tokyo such as Kyoto, Nara, Osaka, Kanazawa and the other cities I marked in the list below, you are cordially requested to pay my round transportation to the area, accommodation in the area, in addition to the usual guide fee, area transportation and meals.

In February 2017, I was invited to a tour in Europe by the travel agency there because my customers
highly evaluated my guide performance during their stay in Japan.

I love this job because it suits me.

I love to be able to bring you everywhere in Japan you want.

and I love to explain you on Japanese custom, cuisine and history.

I'm looking forward to meeting you very soon in Japan.

P.S.
I have experiences to handle a group of fifteen and more, ten times and more.

Thank you.

Masato

FAQ

What is a Licensed Guide?

Licensed guides are professionals approved by the Japan Tourism Agency. Licensed guides have passed tough examinations and are highly knowledgeable about the history and places that feature in their tours. In Japan, unlicensed guides are operating illegally, and are therefore considered to be of lesser quality to licensed guides, who carry official registration cards which represent professionalism and legalit
