Naoto Kaiba

Hello! I'm Naoto Kaiba, your Toyama licensed guide, and I'm passionate about helping travelers discover the true essence of Japan. Having worked in tourism in Australia and explored the globe as a backpacker, I've gained a unique insight into what international visitors truly seek. My goal is to help you delve deeper into Toyama's authentic culture, revealing the pristine Japan that often remains a hidden gem. From history, architecture, and traditional arts to vibrant festivals, diverse food culture, and breathtaking nature, my interests are broad. Imagine discovering a hidden restaurant nestled in the mountains near a serene temple – those are the kinds of authentic experiences I love to share. If you're a nature enthusiast, I can also lead you on invigorating hikes or serene fishing trips through Toyama's stunning landscapes.
