About
Konnichiwa I’m Eriko. I'm passionate about showing people around Tokyo that I call home. Tokyo is truly a city of many faces and has something for everyone from ancient temples, high-tech culture, to quirky themed restaurants.
My great grandfather was a kimono maker in the early 1900's, and I am honored to wear the kimonos that he created. Growing up in a tiny wooden house which used to be a great grandfather's studio in an old town of Tokyo, I came to appreciate Japanese culture. And I'm privilege to share that with many visitors today.
I believe there is no one-size-fits-all travel plan and your itinerary should be as unique as you are. It's rewarding to be a small part of someone's journey broadening their horizons and writing their own story. We embrace the differences and find more things in common. I'm looking forward to being your guide and becoming your first Japanese friend!

“ Amazing Tour!! ”
Had an amazing experience with Eriko! She was very knowledgable with the history of Japan and was very fun and down to earth to be around! Highly recommend to anyone looking for a private tour in Japan!
“ World class tour in Tokyo ”
Eriko was tour guide for our family in Tokyo for 2 days in late July. We were delighted with her proficiency in English, her knowledge and her skillful perspective of Japanese matters to the world we know. She was very adept in changing plans according to our wishes as we were going along so we got a truly tailor-made tour including a nice mix of traditional and modern Japan. Obviously Eriko is a beautiful and stylish young Japanese woman. She is also charming, serviceminded and very easy to talk to. We quickly got to feel as if she was part of our family. I guess the only hard part was saying goodbye after the two days. Arigato, Eriko.
Thank you Karsten for taking the time to write a great review. I really enjoyed sharing my love of Tokyo with you all and also learning about your wonderful culture! So grateful to have been part of your visit to Japan. Arigato and see you again in Copenhagen :)
“ Excellent experience ”
We had a one day private tour with Eriko. We communicated through the Triole Lights website several times before our tour and she was very accommodating as to what we wanted to see and do on our tour. Eriko met us at our hotel beautifully dressed. She helped us navigate the subway/rail system and took us to the fish market, a Buddhist fire ceremony, Harajuku, a wonderful little restaurant where we had a private room, and the Kawaii Monster Cafe. She was delightful to speak with and we had a great time with her. Her English is excellent. Thank you Eriko! -Jennifer & Gail

“ Wonderful day ”
Eriko knows the city and culture so well and spent time taking me to interesting places - loved our tour.
Thank you so much Carrie! What a joy to show you around Tokyo. I'm very grateful I got to spend the day with you. Enjoy your summer! Your friend, Eriko
“ No better way to be introduced to Tokyo! ”
When I was planning my Tokyo trip, my original goal was to discover everything on my own. At the last minute I decided to do a half day tour (plus one hour) as an orientation. I am so glad that I did. Eriko was so helpful in not only showing me around Tokyo but also providing additional information for the rest of my stay. After meeting in my hotel lobby, we went to the Fish Market that was nearby. While I could have walked and saw this on my own, Eriko provided historical and present information that I would not have known otherwise. She was also helpful in communicating with the merchants. From the market we attended a ceremony at a Buddhist temple. By knowing to get there early, we were able to walk around and see the temple as well as preparation for the ceremony while explai... read more
Thank you Calvin for taking time to stop by and leave such kind remarks. It was my pleasure to share my love of this city with you last week! I really enjoyed our conversation on many interesting topics. Hope to see you again in the near future! Best wishes, Your new friend Eriko
