Tour guide in Tokyo Sachimi K.

== Please send a message before booking! Thank you! === Hello or "Konnichiwa!" I am Sachimi, a nationally licensed English-speaking Private Tour Guide living in Tokyo. I am new to TourByLocal, but I have guided more than 1200 people from over 40 different countries in past 3 years pre-pandemic period. I really enjoy meeting with people from different cultural background! I was born in Kobe, in the Western part of Japan, near Kyoto. More recently, I have been living in Tokyo for 15 years. I have one son who is 15 years old. Since I moved to Tokyo, I've discovered the many attractive aspects of Tokyo as the center of Japan, including local culture, art and theater and I am always discovering many new and intriguing things that I am eager to share with my private tour clients. Tokyo has so many things to see and do, many attractive sightseeing spots and experiences including nature. I would love to show you around the iconic sights of Tokyo as well as the numerous hidden gems off-the-beaten tourist path. All of my tours are private and fully customizable to meet your personal desires and interests. My interest in Japanese culture includes traditional arts and crafts, Japanese tea and confectionery, calligraphy, Kimono, traditional tea ceremony and theater such as Kabuki, Noh and Bunraku. I also love to stroll around town enjoying the lovely gardens and historic architecture. I have always been interested in or curious about cultural activities, and I have experienced some of them by myself. I have practiced calligraphy, tea ceremony, making Japanese confectionery and even know how to wear Japanese Kimono the traditional way! "Treasure every encounter" is the primary teaching by Sen-no Rikyu, the perfecter of the tea ceremony, and means each encounter you experience is a very precious and once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. I really like this concept and I am doing my best to embrace it by showing my heartfelt hospitality to all the guests I meet! I am a friendly, personable and adaptable person and will provide you with a comfortable and enjoyable tour with traditional hospitality, "omotenashi" in Japanese. Please allow me to help you experience these magnificent things during your visit to Japan. I will see to it that you will have a truly memorable experience!
