My Traveling Philosophy: Traveling is Inspiring and Healing!
I am passionate about exploration, travel, meeting new people, and immersing myself in the diverse cultures of the world. Having ventured to over 10 countries, including working experiences in Korea and Japan, I've recently spent the past five years living in Japan. The country's hospitality, stunning landscapes, from the majestic Fuji mountain to relaxing hot springs, and the etiquette of its people have left an indelible mark on my heart. Living in Japan was a profound experience, as I aimed to share the places and people I love, unveiling authentic and hidden treasures for others to truly experience the essence of Japan.
For me, traveling is an avenue for creating lasting memories, embracing new experiences, and expanding horizons. It provides an opportunity to step away from the ordinary, serving as a wellspring of inspiration. It's a time for dreaming about life, contemplating desires, and charting future paths. Many of us have made life-altering decisions while traveling, seeking perspective on our lives and making choices about the future. We aspire to make our tours equally inspiring for you.
We are dedicated to providing opportunities for genuine cultural engagement. Our trips are designed to let you truly see Japan, meet its people, listen to their stories, and immerse yourself in the rich tapestry of its culture.
What places and activities do you specialize in?
"Japan. We offer cultural adventures, family-friendly tours. Share your vision of a wonderful trip to Japan, and let us help you fulfill your travel dreams!"
How did you get involved in travel?
"I hail from a picturesque city that often attracts a multitude of foreign visitors. Their diverse appearances and friendly demeanor always intrigued me, sparking a deep curiosity about their origins and the charm of their hometowns. Encouraged by my father, who emphasized the power of English as a key to exploring the world, I pursued English studies at a tourism-focused university.
Upon graduating, I ventured into the world of travel as a tour guide. This profession not only allowed me to utilize my language skills but also afforded me the opportunity to connect with people from every corner of the globe. Sharing in their cultures and life stories significantly broadened my horizons and shifted my perspectives on life.
In 2008, I embarked on my personal journey, exploring numerous countries across Asia and Europe. Traveling became more than just a personal passion; it became a guiding force in defining my life's purpose—assisting others in realizing their dream trips. My experiences as a traveler and a guide have uniquely shaped my path, leading me to a fulfilling role in helping people achieve their travel aspirations."
"
Please share a unique travel experience you will never forget.
"I went to Thailand with my best friend in 2008. We were trekking in a rainforest and lost our way. It was hot and humid, we sweat a lot but found no shop to buy water. We had to put up with our body's tiredness and thirst and decide to climb to a higher spot to find directions. We walked, walked, and walked and finally made it to the top with the company of lots of beautiful butterflies. Guess what we see? The sun is setting over the sea! The sun is so red, the clouds are orange, and the sea water is sky blue, This view is breathtaking and unforgettable. It worth all the sweat and thirst. This is also the beauty of traveling- you’ll never know what ‘s waiting for you head！ "

We used Fei to plan half of our trip - Kyoto, Kumano Kodo, and last day in Tokyo. The hotel in Kyoto was near the train stations which was fine but it would have been nice to be nearer to the historical areas such as Gion. The first day with the tour guide was good, difficult to get around all the school travelers. The second day, our agenda said we need to arrange our own transportation to the calligraphy class, tea ceremony, and cooking class and as we were making arrangement we got notification that a driver was coming; it would have been nice to know this in advance before we spent time making arrangements. There was confusion when we arrived at the tea ceremony that we only had reservations for kimono rentals and not the tea ceremony. Not sure what happened and we tried to get a hold of Fei but only had chat as an option.
The Kumano Kudo schedule was not update with the arrangements made by the Kumano Kudo agency - when we arrived in Tanabe the agency was expecting us at 12:00 and we didn’t arrive till 4:00. This caused problems for the people who were picking us up and for the dinner. Also, by coming in late we didn’t get to hike that day. Returning from the Kumano Kudo trip, our train from Tanabe to Osaka and Osaka to Tokyo had 2.5 hours layovers - not enough time to do anything and we were able to catch an earlier train from Tanabe to Osaka but we didn’t have the information to change the Shinkansen tickets - we contacted Fei via chat (again, didn’t have any other means of communication) but didn’t hear back from her. We therefore had a long travel day and limited time in Tokyo to get dinner.
Our last day, we were supposed to go to the Ghibli Museum and when we arrived our tickets were scrutinized. We weren’t sure if we would be let in as the staff felt our tickets were forgeries. We again tried to contact Fei and the staff were asking for the contact person who booked our tickets and we had no information to provide them. After about 20 minutes, they allowed us to go in but they said they would be contacting you for the future.
Overall, we had a great trip but wish we had better communication with Fei or someone else that we could have requested immediate feedback.

Visiting Japan was a lifelong dream of ours. Since we’ve been together, we’ve talked about it, dreamt about it, and saved money for it. Finally, after 20 years, we decided to make it happen. Initially, we considered planning a self-guided trip, but after attempting to organize a two-week itinerary, we felt overwhelmed and decided to seek professional help.

Our trip organizer, Fei, was amazing. Her attention to our needs and her involvement made the trip easy and worry-free. Fei was always present and responded quickly to any questions we had. Thank you, Fei, for everything!
We also want to mention our great guides who gave us their undivided attention. First, Yumi in Tokyo: we greatly enjoyed our conversations about the Japanese language and its intricacies. Then came Yuki: thank you for your wonderful sense of humor and the thoughtful gifts! My book for temple stamps is now full. Even though Mount Fuji didn’t show her face, we had a fantastic time and shared many laughs.
To Son, who showed us around Kyoto and Osaka: thank you for the deep and interesting conversations about history and religion, and for taking us behind the temples! In Osaka, we cannot forget Tea. During the Foodie tour, he left us with smiles, full bellies from the incredible food, and great conversations about movies. We even enjoyed a drink together after the tour.
In Hiroshima, we had Masako, who provided a very detailed and informative day. Thank you!
Overall, it was an unforgettable journey. Thank you, everyone! We left with full hearts, full stomachs, and a wealth of new knowledge. KimKim was worth every cent.

We had wonderful time in Japan. This was our first trip to Japan, so we wanted to see main attractions with some focus on 'hidden' Japanese treasures. Fei really did great job in organizing everything to tinny detail. Fei was also supportive during our trip, responding to some of the questions or small additional requests quickly. Communication via KimKim platform and response from local agency was good.
We had few days organized with local guide &driver while for few days we joined smaller group. We had also enough time to do some things by ourselves.
Highlights:
- Katana Sword Making in Kyoto
- Half Day Sagano Bamboo Grove & Arashiyama Walking Tour (Join-in)
- Osaka Highlights Bike Tour
- Full Day Mt.Fuji and Lake Kawaguchi Tour - it is a bit longer drive from Tokyo. We were unlucky that road to 5th station on Mt. Fuji was closed and traffic to the place was challenging so we spend a lot of time in car that day.
Few things that could be improved:
- few of our guides were actually more help to go around the place, rather than being really guide explaining things around the place we were visiting. We felt they didn't have much of the local knowledge, which was something we were expecting. They were mostly students living in Japan for several years. The guide that we had in Tokyo was really knowledgeable and was able to share more details.
Altogether, if you want trip without too much of worry, highly recommended. Make sure you stress out importance of having local guides.
