Hello! I’m Jupiter Ishida, a Tokyo-based actor and Tour Guide. My career is a unique blend of storytelling through cinema and delivering world-class, authentic travel experiences to visitors from around the globe. I do love traveling!
My bio
I’m an Actor and also a world traveler. I was born and grew up in Gifu, and I moved to Tokyo when I was 18 years old. I’ve been living in Tokyo from the point. I have been crazy about backpacking; since I was 19 years old. I’ve been to 73 countries and all over Japan.
Traveling in Japan
Speaking of exploring Japan, when I was in university, I traveled around Japan by hitchhiking. It took 100 days and gave me beautiful memories. Throughout entire the trip, I was impressed by the locals so many varieties of food, absolutely amazing scenery, and people.
And also after this pandemic happened, I could not go out of my country. So I stated traveling entire Japan again, it was just amazing.

Beyond acting, I am widely recognized as one of the top-rated professional tour guides in Tokyo. Because I love traveling so much, I understand exactly what makes a journey special. I translate my vast international experience into high-end, insightful tours that go far beyond the typical tourist experience.
