I am Teacher
Hello! My name is Emilio, I was born in Spain and have been living in Sapporo for the past 6 years. During my travels, I ended up in Dublin where I worked for almost a year and where I met my Japanese wife. Then, we came to Sapporo in 2017. I have two children and I work teaching English to Japanese kids. No doubt one of the things I like the most about this city is the food. From local miso ramen, soup curry, and the freshest sushi you can find in Japan to one of the most famous regional dishes, Genghis Khan. Everything matches perfectly with a cold Sapporo beer in your hand. As a father of two kids, I find Sapporo very kid-friendly and I love having beautiful parks where we can enjoy a relaxing picnic and have a nice walk or also visit the small Maruyama zoo, very close to the biggest and most important shrine in Hokkaido. Let me guide you around Sapporo and everything this city has to offer.
The tour guide was considerate by providing his Whatsapp for contact in case I couldn’t find him… which I did initially because I was on the wrong side of the station. Nonetheless, it was a nice leisurely 6 hours. Took me to the places that I had not been to yet. I am hitting up the spots he recommended me today before I head home to LA tomorrow. Great job!

Emilio was a wonderful tour guide. He has lived in Sapporo for several years and knows the city very well. We started our tour at a wonderful fish market away from the heavy crowds. He introduced us to the subway and the fascinating underground city of walkways and stores. We also visited the top floor of a tall downtown building to get great panoramic views of the city. He then showed us to a wonderful restaurant for lunch. All the while he spoke beautifully of the city, its people and what he loves most about Sapporo and what he finds challenging. He also shared his views of Japan in general and gave us advice on how to enjoy our trip going forward. Overall an A + rating for Emilio who we enjoyed very much. Thanks to Emilio and best wishes to him and his young family.
