Hi, I’m Alex

Kyoto

5.0 (208)

I’m Alex Before ending up in Japan, many years back, I had a nomad life across several Asian countries for many years as well. I spent most of that time in India, where among other activities I had my first experiences as a tour guide. There I also met my wife, and when the relationship got more serious we decided to settle down and have a more stable life, we chose Japan where she is from. Since then I had many personal experiences in this country in different fields such as human relations, jobs in different sectors, trips, bizarre situations, etc, experiences that I always like to share, together with some knowledge about aspects of the culture that I studied for years, just for the sake of getting knowledge without thinking that I would do this activity later on. By the way, I appreciate a lot the human factor, and besides having a responsibility I enjoy a lot just meeting and being with new people. In other words; I love this job, I love the culture I show, and I love human communication in itself. Let’s meet and spend time together so I can show you the best of this city, the cultural capital of Japan

Lisa 1 March 2026

We had a fabulous afternoon with Joanne. We tasted authentic street food and got to see so many wonderful sites of the city along the way. Joanne was sweet, smart and prepared.

Janet 1 March 2026

We have been to Singapore several times before but weren’t sure what to order at the Hawker markets. Mark was a great guide, really informative about Singapore overall as well as the cuisine. He arranged for us to taste lots of different foods which we would never had the opportunity to try if we were on our own. We had a really great trip and would highly recommend giving it a try.

Freedom 28 February 2026

This was a highlight of our vacation! We had the best time in Manchester and wish we would have stayed longer. It was completely custom to our interests including history, music, food and culture. Couldn’t have been better!

Gary 27 February 2026

Regene showed is so many great places in Hong Kong for us to see together! From a beautiful temple and garden to a wet market and several shopping areas. She also gave us advice on finding good restaurants and local information. We walked, rode on the subways and Uber’s to traverse the city and sights.
