Kimi Kuribayashi

I was a high school teacher for a long time and then became a tour guide. I have the experience of traveling to various countries around the world. Returning to my hometown of Kumano, I mainly guide the Kumano Kodo while experiencing the beauty of this area. In particular, Japan has its own unique traditions and culture, so I always try to provide easy-to-understand explanations for people from overseas. Iseji (the road that connects Ise Grand Shrine and Kumano Three Grand Shrines) is a road that many pilgrims have taken for hundreds of years. I will transport you to the ancient world while listening to the chirping of birds and the sound of the stream. I have had many experiences guiding FIT/VIP and FAM tours.
