Ryo - Tour Guide in Tokyo

Konnichiwa! I'm Ryo, your local guide. I graduated from Shinjuku Public High School, a 5-minute walk from Shinjuku station. I went to Waseda University, about a 30-minute walk from the same station. I used to live in Kabukicho town and worked for a movie production company located in the Shinjuku Nichome district. I have first-hand experience going to many of the establishments which we will discuss during the tour. Therefore, I consider myself to be a local. During the day, I am a cram schoolteacher, teaching English to high school graduate students.

Ryo was very professional, informative, entertaining and patient. We got to see a side of Tokyo that we would have never known about or seen without him.

Response from Ryo
Jean-san ! Thank you so much for your kind review! Honestly, during the tour, I wished we had more time to talk about New York and your life there. You mentioned that despite super inflation, there are ways to manage, and I’m sure you're doing just that now that you're back home. Thank you again for joining the tour—it was a pleasure having you !

It was very interesting to learn about the other side of Tokyo life. The tour was great, and our guide Ryo knows and most importantly loves his job. Thank you for an interesting evening!

Illisa-san, thank you for your review! Since you are the first Russian participant in this tour, I was very curious to hear your perspective, and I really appreciate what you shared about the war in Ukraine. May peace prevail !
