Hi! I'm Akio. Let's Have fun!

Born and raised in Tokyo, I’ve traveled to more than 50 countries and regions around the world. These experiences have given me both a local’s insight and a traveler’s perspective, allowing me to introduce Tokyo in a way that goes beyond the guidebooks. Since 2024, I’ve been working as an English-speaking tour guide, helping visitors discover not only Tokyo’s famous landmarks but also its hidden gems, culture, and everyday life. Food is one of my greatest passions. I love exploring great restaurants, especially sushi, and have developed a deep appreciation for different kinds of fish, seasonal ingredients, and Japanese sake. Whether you’re trying sushi for the first time or looking for an unforgettable dining experience, I’d be delighted to help you enjoy Japan through its incredible food and drinks. If you’re a ramen lover, you’re in good hands! I’m a true ramen enthusiast and enjoy exploring the incredible variety of ramen styles—from rich tonkotsu and hearty miso to delicate shio and classic shoyu. I’ll be happy to introduce you to some of my favorite ramen spots, from famous local institutions to hidden neighborhood gems. I believe one of the best ways to understand Japan is through its food. Let’s discover Tokyo together—one neighborhood, one story, and one delicious meal at a time!
