Hello.

I was raised in several places, such as Tokyo, Yokohama, Kobe, Osaka, and Nagoya.

After my professional sales experience for a business machinery company in Yokohama, I pursued an opportunity to teach in China.

I worked as a Japanese teacher to foreigners in Shanghai.

The longer I lived abroad, the more I came to appreciate the unique aspects of Japanese culture. So I started learning English and Chinese to become a bridge to help bring foreign visitors closer to Japanese culture.

I would be horored to be your guide as you tour our historically rich country. I am looking forward to traveling Japan with you. Thank you.


大家好。我叫Maru, 来自东京。在上海生活过七年半。在东华大学学了两年半汉语。2012年得到日语教师资格证后一边学习日本历史文化相关知识一边从事日语教师工作。2018年回到日本开始用英语当导游。2019年终于能开始用汉语当导游了!我想成为世界各个国家和日本友好关系的桥梁。我对历史,美食、名胜古迹都很感兴趣。如果能跟大家一起旅游,我很高兴。谢谢。

Maru - an excellent tour guide

We were visiting Japan for the first time and were quite nervous about visiting when we didn’t know the language or how to get around the area (outside of Tokyo). Maru was an excellent tour guide. She asked questions at first to get to know our likes and interests and helped us get set up so we could easily access the train system. She is funny and kind. We walked a lot!!! And weaved into traditional and modern hot spots for Japan. She helped us understand cultural significance in the spots we visited. We had a very enjoyable time in large part thanks to Maru. We hired her for one full day and two 1/2 days which was the perfect balance.

Amazing time in Tokyo!

We loved having Maru as our tour guide for 3 days! She was so nice and helpful and had great suggestions for experiences and dining. She was aLai able to help us get tickets to some places that would have been hard for us to get on our own. Will recommend her to all our friends!

Tokyo Highlights

Maru is excellent. She has great communication skills, is prompt and most importantly is very skilled as a private guide, including genuinely caring for the family’s priorities. She has a lot of knowledge about the history, people, culture and sights.

Thank you so much for taking your time to give me a review. It was a bit short notice for a tour, but we were able to find a good restaurant for lunch and also visited Shinjuku Gyoyen park instead of a peak day. We visited Meiji jingu shrine, Omotesando, Harajuku, Shinjuku Kabukicho, Shinjuku Gyoen park in 8 hour. Hope you enjoyed Japan after our tour. Thank you for contacting me and having me as a guide for you. Best regards, Maru
