He was my tour guide before when in Tokyo and moved back to Hokkaido, his hometown. This time, I was with my friends and her family. I contacted him before we reached. Reliable and knowledgeable about the places that we were going to visit. My first time visiting Hokkaido, so he created itinerary for us. It is one day itinerary to Biei and Furano.
We rent a car, he be our driver as well as we tour guide, not an easy job but he can do it. He explained what we saw along the way to the destination.
One of my friend's family member had a nonstop cough due to allergic, he helped us to find the nearest hospital and took us there. But, even with that "unexpected" detour, we still managed to visit what we've had planned, of course the visits were shorter than the plan. So, overall we satisfied.

We had the pleasure of having Yuichi-san as our guide cum driver for 12 amazing days in Hokkaido.
The trip to Hokkaido was specially planned for my elderly parents who had always wanted to see the lavender fields and sunflowers in Hokkaido. Yuichi-san is very meticulous and detailed orientated during the course of our planning. Emails were forthgoing for at least 5 months prior to our trip in July, which we wholeheartedly thank him for his patience in replying all my mails.
He is extremely passionate at what he does, going to all length in his explanation and helping us to savour the delicious delicacies along our 12 days road trip.
Yuichi-San took us to some amazing sights at eastern Hokkaido with some unbeaten tracks along the way. We would never have been able to marvel at the beauty of the eastern terrain without Yuichi-san . This has been the best holiday we ever had and we hope to be back travelling with Yuichi-san again.

5 days trip with Yuichi's guide to destinations such as Otaru, Hokadate, Sapporo, etc. He was very friendly and patient on our request always. He was recommended a lot of food to us which we keen especially seafood, sushi, ramen... He is good English speaking and we got a lot of informations from him. No doubt, we will hire him again for our next trip once go back Hakkaido again.

We are a group of 3 from Indonesia. We had 2 days trip with Yuichi to Noboribetsu and Otaru. We were supposed to go to Furano and Biei but due to the weather condition at that time we have to change our destination.
Yuichi was also quick on his feet and he recommend us to go to Otaru instead.
He brought us to eat in a seafood restaurant by the seaside. Its quite a distance from the otaru station.
And IT WAS SO GOOD. If we had come by ourselves we wouldn't know about this place and how to get there. So thank you yuichi for giving us the best traveling experience in Hokkaido. We will definitely hire him again if we are happen to be in Hokkaido.

This was my second tour with Yuichi and he did an excellent job. We had a 12 hour cruise ship stop in Hokodate. Yuichi listened to our interests and designed a tour that fit us perfectly. I would highly recommend using him for any private tour.

For our private tour in Hokkaido on 30 Dec 2017, we booked a private tour guide named Yuichi and it was our best decision ever. Yuichi came out tops as he is a very professional guide and his conversational English was clear and understandable as compared to the other few private tour guides we had experienced during our previous trips in Tokyo and Hokkaido. He kept on providing commentaries of the places, food and unique quirks without us asking / prompting. His comments were also very insightful and interesting. During our toilet breaks while browsing at the tourist souvenir shops, he even continued to provide interesting commentaries on special / favourite food products and drinks which the other private guides did not do. He also made a point to note down all the participants names which the other private guides also did not do. And when my children wanted to play with snow by sliding down, he helped them with the sliding board. Thus he stands out among his peers and I would highly recommend him to be your English speaking private tour guide in Japan. Wished you had been our private tour guide for our past / previous tours in Tokyo and Eastern Hokkaido. Keep up with the great work. And a highly recommended private tour guide that you should engaged.

How lucky I was to be able to arrange a last minute day trip to Otaru with Yuichi! He met me at my hotel, took me through the intricacies of theJapanese train system, and proved to be a wonderfully fun companion to explore this historical city with. With his deep knowledge of this seaside town, Yuichi quickly molded the tour to suit my interest in local food, and introduced me to some of the best examples of a surprisingly rich variety of regional offerings — delicate pastries, savory rice crackers, insanely fresh seafood, and what to look for when tasting sake, to name just a few of the delectable things that await you here. Tip: Do taste or purchase for later anything he points out as his favorite — I only regret not following my own advice throughout the tour!

Ichi-san was a great tour guide to have. He shared with us his knowledge about the places we visited and also brought us to restaurants which served really delicious food. My family had a wonderful holiday with Ichi-san. Thanks to his advise,we managed to do everything as planned without any mishaps. Will definitely get him to be our guide again for the next trip! Thank you Ichi-san!

Months have past, but I have not forgotten the journey we took with Yuichi. It was indeed one of the most memorable experience in Japan. Yuichi is definitely knowledgable and he is extremely approachable. Don't be fooled by the picture, he looked so much younger in person. We went to Noboribetsu, Lake Toya, Otaru. We are even brought to the special places where not a lot of tourists have been. The restaurant and food places he brought us are superb, ie. Lake Hill Farm, Minshuku Aotsuka Shokudou, and more. The scenery and the places of interest he brought us to are breathtaking. Unfortunately, due to the first heavy snowfall of the season, we have to postpone our trip to furano, Biei, but this means that we are going to book him for our next trip to Hokkaido again. He is truly the yuichi (number one).
