Hey there! I'm Stephen, your friendly neighborhood host here in Nagoya. One of the things I adore most about Nagoya is its cuisine – the bold flavors of "Nagoya meshi" are unbeatable. Nagoya strikes that perfect balance, offering plenty to explore without overwhelming you. You'll often find me knee-deep in local festivals and events, whether I'm helping organize them or just soaking up the atmosphere. And after hours? Count me in for some izakaya hopping or catching live music shows in the entertainment districts. So, whether you're a local looking for a new adventure or a visitor eager to dive into Nagoya's rich culture, I'm here to help make your experience unforgettable. Let's explore this amazing city together!

    Stephen was a very accommodating tour guide. Due to the weather we wanted something indoors, instead of local sights. He suggested two different museums, we chose the Toyota museum and spent most of our time there. When we said we wanted to get a few more trinkets for gifts, he suggested a covered shopping district that he knew has a couple of souvenir shops. We thoroughly enjoyed the rainy day.
