I had worked 25 years for the Japanese subsidiary of global company in Tokyo. During my career, I had seen many business travelers coming to Japan who hope to visit Kyoto during their off-time. As my volunteer work, I had made their travel plans to Kyoto and arrange everything upon request on behalf of them more than 10 years. I returned back to Kyoto last year and founded small company to support foreign guests to arrange anything to meet the various requests of them; sightseeing, cultural experience, accommodation, eating, shopping, and anything they like to do. Because information about Kyoto is flooding on the Internet now, and it is so difficult for tourists to identify what is genuine from a lot of flooding information. I would like to support foreign tourists for making their travel memorable by offering genuine information. It is the reason I founded my company. Also, I started Airbnb at the same time. I welcome guests who are limited to one group a night to my house. My hobby is traveling abroad. I have been traveling over 20 countries mainly in Europe. It was fantastic experience to have been interacting with many people during my traveling. I would also like to experience interacting with many foreign tourists coming to our house as a host of Airbnb this time. If you like to know the information about hidden sightseeing spots and genuine traditional Japanese culture experience in Kyoto, please leave it to me. I am so happy to support you making your holiday in Kyoto unforgettable.

We have a lot of genuine information on sightseeing and authentic traditional cultural experience in Kyoto. We will be able to show you the way to everywhere you want to go efficiently in a limited short time. Also, we will be able to give you the information to experience authentic traditional Japanese culture. Because the information about shoddy experience of traditional Japanese culture is flooding not only on internet such as TripAdviser but also in the city. We are afraid that such kind of information make foreign tourists mislead to know Japanese traditional culture.
If you like to talk with us about the travel information, common Japanese life or anything else, let's talk together.
If you want to keep quiet, we don't disturb you.
Please tell us your request.
