Step off the beaten path and explore a quieter side of Kyoto with a local Japanese guide with deep knowledge of the city. It’s ideal if you want fewer crowds and a more real feel of the city.

In this tour, I will guide you through not only Asakusa's famous landmarks but also its lesser-known sides—stories and places that even many Japanese people don't know. I believe that to truly understand Japan’s history and culture, it's important to explore both the light and the shadow. Having worked with many tour guides, I’ve noticed that most focus only on the “good” side of Japan—saying how wonderful everything is. While I love my country, I also think it's important to show a complete picture, including the difficult and complex parts of our past. I’m passionate about sharing Japan with people from around the world. With experience guiding over 300 international visitors, I offer a unique, honest, and interactive tour. Each tour is private—only one group per session—so we can communicate freely. Feel free to ask questions at any time. I look forward to exploring Asakusa with you!

Sumo is Japan's national sport — but at a tournament you're far from the action. Here in the heart of Ginza, you get as close as it gets: a lively, interactive sumo show where real wrestlers perform right in front of you, and you become part of the fun. An English-speaking host guides you through it all, explaining sumo's history, rituals and techniques in a way that's genuinely entertaining. You'll watch powerful live bouts, learn what the salt-throwing and stomping really mean, split into teams and cheer your wrestler at the top of your lungs — and if you're picked, you can even step into the ring and take on a wrestler yourself (great for photos, even better for stories back home). Then comes the reward: a hearty, all-you-can-eat bowl of chanko nabe, the protein-packed hot pot sumo wrestlers eat every day. You're free to take photos and videos throughout, so you'll leave with a camera roll full of once-in-a-lifetime moments.
