    Overview

    This is not a typical sightseeing tour. It’s a chance to slow down, ask questions, and experience Japan through conversation with a local. As a Japanese language teacher, local guide, and mother of two based in Tokyo, I love welcoming visitors from around the world and sharing everyday life in Japan. Once you slow down, you start noticing more. This private Walk & Talk experience is shaped around your interests. Whether you’re interested in Japanese culture, history, food, family, work, daily life, or the Japanese language, feel free to ask questions and make requests. We’ll explore Tokyo together at a relaxed pace. We may visit local neighborhoods, cafés, parks, shrines, or the area around your hotel. If you’d like, we can also visit Meiji Jingu Shrine, one of my favorite places in Tokyo. Children are welcome, and no Japanese language skills are required. I’d love to hear your story with Japan, and I hope our time together helps you feel a little more connected to Japan.
