Hiroshima Private Tour Guides

“Knowledgeable tour of Miyajima & Hiroshima”

Me, my husband and both our Mother's were guided by Kate through the beautiful Itsukushima Jinja shrine on Miyajima Island and the atomic bomb Peace Memorial Park. Kate also took us to one of her favourite Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki for lunch, which was in the Okonomyaki village in the city centre, and it was delicious! (And catered to our groups dietary needs!) Kate was very responsive and collaborative with her tour plan, asking us if there was anything specific we wanted to see, or what we would prefer doing in the morning vs afternoon. While we were touring the sites, Kate had some visual aids to help her explain the history of the places. This really helped us visualise the stories. We had a lot of questions about the sites, but also general knowledge questions about Japanese culture and lifestyle, and Kate was great at answering them. By the end of the day, we had a really great vibe with her and were having good conversations. This was an English-friendly tour, and would recommend Kate to any other travellers coming to Hiroshima. Thank you so much Kate, we'll be returning to Hiroshima one day again!

Thank you so much for your kind words, Miriam! It was a pleasure spending the day with you and your family. I really enjoyed all of your questions and our conversations throughout the tour, and I’m glad my visual materials helped bring Hiroshima and Miyajima’s history to life. Thank you for being so interested in Japanese history and culture. I always try to tailor each tour to my guests’ interests, whether that’s history, local food, or everyday life in Japan, so I’m happy to hear you enjoyed the experience. I hope you have a wonderful rest of your trip, and I’d love to welcome you and your family back to Hiroshima someday! Kind regards, Kate

“Highlights of Hiroshima”

A last minute cruise detour found us docking in Hiroshima. We were extremely lucky to find Miyouri available. We had an EXCEPTIONAL day touring both Miyajima and the Peace Park. The compassion, knowledge and ability to share her knowledge with us was beyond our expectations. She even brought along home made origami birds for us to leave at the Children’s memorial.

Thank you for your warm and kind words. I feel fortunate as well, because your cruise ship’s visit to Hiroshima gave me the chance to spend a wonderful day with you. I hope the memories of Hiroshima will stay with you forever.

“Unforgettable Hiroshima”

Thank you Kazumi for a wonderful tour. We learnt so much from her. She is very passionate and knowledgeable about the history of her beautiful city. Kazumi is accommodating and adaptive to our group. Her lunch recommendation was delicious and not super busy! We couldnt have asked for a better guide. Thank you again!
