I’ve lived in Tokyo for 25 years
I speak English, Japanese
I am a chef
Tokyo is a city of endless discovery, and I love every bit of it! From the vibrant streets of Shibuya to the peaceful temples of Asakusa, I enjoy exploring both the trendy and traditional sides of the city. Nothing excites me more than stumbling upon hidden ramen and tsukemen spots or introducing visitors to the real local vibe, even in the heart of Tokyo. Whether you're looking for an iconic tourist experience or a deep dive into Tokyo’s authentic charm, I’m here to help you navigate it all. Let’s explore the energy, flavors, and culture that make this city so special!

My reviews

Sheiiji was the best guide we had in Japan. We went on a food tour with him and he contacted us a week before to ask what we wanted to try. This made the day of the tour much better as he already knew what we wanted to try and had a plan for us.

We enjoy the University of Tokyo tour very much, it's something new to us and we never think we can visit Tokyo in this way.

Seiichi was a wonderful host that did well to accommodate our needs. My wife is Coeliac and he even found a restaurant to have lunch that was suitable for her.
