Hello, welcome to my profile! I'm Keiko (Kay). As a national certified guide deeply passionate about the rich history, culture, and natural beauty of this area, I am eager to share these experiences with you. With over 16 years of experience living abroad, mostly in Europe, I've had the privilege of immersing myself in diverse cultures and meeting incredible people from around the world.

On top of that, I've been playing the piano for over *xx years, a passion that brings balance to my life. (The reason XX is simply because I hesitate to disclose my age...) Health and nutrition are important to me, as is the same to everyone, and I love exploring new ways to stay healthy and enjoy good food! Our itinerary will take us through some of the most iconic landmarks, as well as a few hidden gems that only locals know about.

My name is Miyu. I have been a Nationally Licensed Guide Interpreter since 2009. I began my career as a tourist guide last year after working as a public servant for nearly four decades. I worked in the Atomic Bomb Survivors Support Division for 12 years until I retired from the local government, and I continue to interact with Hibakusha. Therefore, I have a lot of knowledge about A-bomb survivors, the reconstruction of Hiroshima, and the effects of radiation on the human body, which I can correctly convey to inbound visitors. I have experience in tea ceremonies and calligraphy and am especially good at guiding visitors through tea ceremony experiences. I love to watch baseball games, so I enjoy talking about them with guests from countries where they are popular. I am a volunteer medical interpreter and can respond to visitors' sudden health problems.

Hi, I'm Kahori, a nationally licensed guide interpreter, and have just started working with GoWithGuide! I’m delighted to show people around this area. For the past almost 10 years, I have mainly guided foreign medical professionals around Hiroshima City and Miyajima, gaining a deep understanding of the effects of radiation and the support for A-bomb survivors. Hiroshima is a city of rivers and the sea. Along the rivers Cherry trees line, and the calm Seto Inland Sea, dotted with islands, creates a stunning landscape. Also, the sea has many islands called "art islands" which have fantastic arts relating to the art festival "Setoushi Triennale". In addition to our two World Heritage Sites, this area is rich in attractive resources. I hope many of you will come and experience this fascinating land. Personally, I am very passionate about modern art and enjoy sports like stand-up paddle boarding (SUP) on our rivers. I look forward to meeting you, interacting with you, and also, learning from you!

Yoshiyuki Y.
I was born and raised in Hiroshima, and I have been guiding visitors for more than ten years. For the past three years, I have been a professional guide, and I have conducted over 200 paid tours. My specialties are guiding visitors around the Peace Memorial Museum, the Peace Park, and Miyajima Island. I also enjoy introducing people to Saijo, which is famous for its sake breweries. Thanks to my long experience, I am able not only to explain the exhibits and monuments, but also to share the deeper stories behind them. Many of my guests have told me they especially appreciated this. As a second-generation atomic bomb survivor, I feel a strong responsibility to pass on the stories of Hiroshima to people from around the world. At the same time, I want my guests to enjoy the beauty and hospitality of this city. I look forward to guiding you and creating memorable experiences together. Thank you very much

“Hiroshima day tour”
We had the good fortune to spend a great day with Hugh in Horoshima. He had a unique way of presenting history and his passion for storytelling came through in a very interesting and dramatic way. He was efficient in moving us from place to place and was adept at avoiding lineups and shortening long walks where possible. We recommend him without hesitation.

Both of you must have been very busy, returning to work right after coming back from Japan. I truly appreciate you taking the time to write a kind review. Climbing all the way to the top of Mt. Misen and having such an open and honest exchange of views at the Peace Memorial Park are wonderful memories for me. Your great intelligence and insight inspired me a lot. Warm regards, Keiko(Kay)

“Wonderful Hiroshima Tour with Keiko-san!”
Keiko was truly amazing! She was warm, kind, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable throughout the day. She shared so much meaningful history and insight, and she answered all of our questions with care and we had many! She made the experience feel personal, comfortable, and memorable. We truly enjoyed spending the day with her and would happily recommend her services to anyone visiting Hiroshima. ️
Keiko K.
Thank you so much for your warm review. I truly had a wonderful time with you—it felt like I was spending the day with my own son and daughters! I really hope more thoughtful young people like you will visit Hiroshima, experience it firsthand, and share what you feel with the world. Next time we meet, I hope I’ll still be in great shape and able to keep up with you! Thank you again. All the best, Kay
