I am a registered National Tour Guide (English). It has been my pleasures to show people this wonderful corner of Japan where every turn and every day brings a new experience. I am able to tailor tours to your individual needs and interests. There are many hidden gems waiting to be discovered here: hot springs, local gourmet, traditional festivals, tranquil tea houses, new technology, zen experience and local people. Look forward to seeing you soon.

I can also help you switch your foreign vehicle licence to a Japanese licence.

I am very interested in Tour Guiding for foreigners. Because I like travel all over the world and I learned how to do the tour guide. For example I have been traveling south Asia (included south east Asia), Europe, Africa, North & South America. Basically I travel alone. In such places, I have joined a tour group there, and learned technique of how to guide from tour guides. Of course, in Japan I did it too. In these reasons, I would like to get a chance of tour guide and give foreigners "HOW WONDERFUL FUKUSHIMA & JAPAN" IS.

Hello there! I’m Mariko. I’m a licensed Tour Guide. I was born in Fukushima and that’s where I live now, but I also lived in Tokyo for more than 30 years. Before that, I lived in Germany for three years. I have worked for an American company, a French company and a Japanese company and I have made a lot of business and personal trips to the US, Europe and Asia. Now I teach English to Japanese people and Japanese to foreigners, as well as being a tour guide. So, I think I’m quite international at this point.
My hobbies are mountain climbing, walking through the streets of the cities and towns, and Aikido, which is one of the martial arts. I also like eating local foods and drinking sake and meeting people.
　What would you like to do during your trip to Japan? By understanding what you’d like to do and see, I will be able to plan the best trip for you anyplace in Fukushima, Tohoku, Tokyo and many other areas.
I’d like to help you discover the charm of Japan! See you soon!

I love to communicate and meet with people from different cultures. My hobby is triathlon. So, in spring, summer and autumn, I am good at activities such as running, swimming, biking etc, and in winter skiing. I would be happy if you could feel Aizu's goodness while walking together in a historic town or in rich nature. Currently I am also studying Chinese to acquire the qualifications of an interpreter guide of Chinese. Maybe easy Chinese will be available.
