Hello, I’m Shin, a national Certified Guide Interpreter in English, as well as an experienced professional tour guide for Japanese tourists of one of the biggest travel agencies in Japan.
It'll be my pleasure to help you to make your own tour of your own interests and good experiences in Japan. I have many experiences of guiding corporate and business executives from abroad to the sightseeing spots of their interests.
I also have a license for nursing care. If you have any concerns or anxiety about moving by using the stick or the wheelchair in the tour, I’ll be happy to support you.
I hope you enjoy the trip to Japan.
I can also guide you in Okinawa, Kagoshima, Kumamoto, Nagasaki, Shimane, Hiroshima, Kobe, Osaka, Nara, Kyoto, Shiga, Kanazawa, Nagoya, Gifu, Nagano, Niigata, etc., if you pay my transportation fee between Tokyo or Yokohama and these places, my hotel fee, and cost of my meals.
I can’t say enough about our Guide Shin or the 2 days of tours he planned and took my group on. He epitomizes the Japanese culture, he is friendly, helpful, accommodating and caring. My group could not say enough about him. Shin truly kicked our Japanese vacation off with a bang! When we parted ways on the last day, it truly felt like we were saying goodbye to a friend. For anyone planning a trip to Japan and more specifically Tokyo, please reach out to Shin. I want to thank Shin once again for his professionalism, knowledge and friendliness. Cheers from Expedia Cruises Oakville South!
Dear Mike K., Thank you sincerely for your generous and thoughtful review. It was an absolute honor and pleasure to be your group’s guide on July 23 and 24. I thoroughly enjoyed our conversations and the time spent with you and your group. Despite the intense heat and high humidity, I hope the experience was memorable for you and your group. Wishing you and your group a delightful and healthy continuation of the upcoming cruise in Japan. Please give my best regards to all of your group members. Sincerely Yours, Shin (Shinichiro Hazeki)
Shin-go all the way! (as this is appropriately Christmas time) Our one-day tour in Nikko could not have been better. Shin-San took us everywhere, explained everything in detail, and spent more time with us than required. His English was impeccable. Lunch was also a pleasant surprise. The place looked like a cafeteria but we had the best udon in all of Japan here. A good time was had by all. Thank you Shin. Phoebe (write for the group)
Dear Phoebe, Thank you for your wonderful comments. I’m very sorry to be late to add my comments to it because I just finished my guiding jobs this week. I hope your stay in Japan during December 4th to 20th went very well, and now you have a lot of good memories about it. The day with you during one-day tour in Nikko is a wonderful memory for me. Please come back again to Japan any time. We’ll always welcome you. Very best wishes for health and happiness of you and your families in 2024! Sincerely Yours, Shin
We were a group of 14 who hired Shin for 3 days before and after the Tokyo marathon. Shin delivered exactly what we were looking for with little guidance. We came away with a good understanding of Tokyo, its people, culture, architecture, history and sights. It is tough to find a more kind individual anywhere. Although a very diverse group we all thoroughly enjoyed our tours of the city. Shin was very patient with us. If touring Tokyo you can’t go wrong with Shin.
Dear Hugh, Arigato Gozaimasu！ I hope you and your friends enjoyed Tokyo Marathon 2023 on March 5th and the stay in Japan. It’s my great honor and pleasure to be a guide for your group. It’s also a very exciting experience and memory for me to cheer for you and other runners of your group at Tokyo Marathon 2023. Thank you for wonderful time and please give my best regards to all the members of your group. Sincerely Yours, Shin (Shinichiro Hazeki)
Meeting Shinichiro became a real window to today's Japan. Very good English (lots of job experience in the USA), really great mutual understanding. Thank you, Shinichiro!
Dear Irene, I hope you returned home safely. Thank you very much for your review comments and wonderful time during our tour from Yokohama to Kamakura on October 14. I really enjoyed it and it's precious memory for me. The book 'At Home in Japan' (about today's Japan) by Rebecca Otowa will be delivered to me from Amazon next week. Very best wishes for health and happiness of both of you. Sincerely Yours, Shinichiro Hazeki (Shin)
