My name is Saki, and I'm a local host in Nagoya. I love that our city has a more relaxed pace compared to other bustling tourist destinations. It makes it a comfortable place to live and explore. I'm also a big fan of our unique food culture, especially our love for miso paste in all sorts of dishes. One of my favorite areas in Nagoya is the Nagono district, next to the castle. It's a historic area over 400 years old, and it feels like you're taking a step back when you explore it. I love discovering new restaurants and hidden gems here. I'm also well-versed in the Nagono district, the Osu shopping arcade, Yagoto, and even Inuyama, which is just a 30-minute train ride away. If you're looking for a local's take on the best off-the-beaten-path places to eat, I'm your girl! Let's discover the delicious and charming side of Nagoya together!

Local guide Saki provided exceptional English translation for an off-the-beaten-path tour of the traditional Kakukyu Miso Brewery on the outskirts of Nagoya. She met us at Nagoya train station and navigated local trains to get us to the tour on-time. After the tour, we had lunch at the brewery. One of the highlights of the private tour was spending time with this informative and friendly guide. We would highly recommend this experience for anyone.

Saki was so friendly and knowledgeable about her city Nagoya. I had a great shopping experience at the Osu market and saw some beautiful views of the tower and station at sunset.
