Through my years as an inbound tour guide, I’ve learned that the most memorable journeys go beyond sightseeing — they’re about connecting with local people and experiencing Japanese culture firsthand.

My goal is to create personal and authentic experiences, while being a trusted local friend you can rely on throughout your journey in Japan. As a mother of two, I also understand the realities of traveling with children and love helping families enjoy Japan at a comfortable, stress-free pace.

While I have experience as a tour guide, my main expertise is in tour planning and travel coordination. I enjoy understanding each traveler’s needs and making their journey through Japan feel easy and stress-free.

From navigating transportation to handling the little details, my goal is to take the stress out of travel so you can simply enjoy the scenery, food, and unforgettable experiences Japan has to offer.

Reviews

We were lucky enough to have Saki organize our recent 3-week trip to Japan. She carefully planned our itinerary, including a videolink meeting to discuss our preferences, and used her extensive knowledge to suggest fantastic accommodation, hidden gems to visit and a number of interactive experiences. She was our personal guide in Osaka, Kyoto and Matsumoto and took us to a number of places well away from the busy tourist areas.
She arranged all of our travel within Japan including detailed directions and booking all of our train/bus travel with meticulously arranged tickets and instructions sent to our first hotel in Tokyo.
We could not recommend her highly enough if you are planning a trip to Japan.
