“Exceptional Tour with Mayumi - A Day to Remember”

Mayumi made our day in Hiroshima absolutely unforgettable. Her incredible knowledge and flawless English allowed us to truly understand the profound history and significance of each location we visited. At Peace Memorial Park and the Atomic Bomb Dome, Mayumi's respectful storytelling brought the history to life while maintaining the appropriate reverence for this sacred space. Her guidance through the Hiroshima Peace Museum was particularly impactful - she shared unique perspectives and pointed out details we never would have noticed on our own, making the experience deeply meaningful and educational. The transition to Miyajima Shrine and Daishoin Temple showcased another side of her expertise. Mayumi seamlessly wove together the spiritual and cultural significance of these beautiful sites, explaining traditions and architectural details that enriched our understanding of Japanese culture. What sets Mayumi apart is her genuine kindness and ability to create a perfect balance between education and emotional connection. She has an intuitive sense of when to share information and when to allow for quiet reflection. Her personal insights and stories added layers of meaning that no guidebook could provide. If you're visiting Hiroshima, Mayumi is absolutely essential. She doesn't just show you the sites - she helps you truly understand and feel their significance. Highest recommendation possible!

“A really great experience”

Dear Keiko, we just arrived back in Germany and we wanted to say "Thank You". We had such an interesting day with you. Your German is really good and there was no problem in understanding each other. We learned so much about your culture, the city and so on. It was a really great day and you really went beyond to show us the best places and give us so detailed information. Thank you so much. Your nice and warming personality just made the day even better. Thank you also for your sweet presents. All the best for you, Sarah and Ralph

Thank you so much for your warm review. I’m glad to hear that you made it back safely to Germany! It must be the perfect season now for Zwiebelkuchen and Federweißer. Meeting you both in Hiroshima and hearing German again filled me with a deep sense of nostalgia. My German is still very much a work in progress, but I truly appreciated the way you listened so attentively. Next time you come to Hiroshima, I’ll make sure to brush up to C1 level (haha). Thank you again for the wonderful time we shared!　Liebe Grüße, Kay (Keiko)

“Wishing Pancho was our guide everywhere in Japan”

The visit to Hiroshima was powerful and emotionally intense—especially hearing the story firsthand from someone whose family lived through the bombing. It was profound. Pancho planned the day perfectly, allowing time not only to absorb the weight of Hiroshima but also to visit Miyajima Island and its iconic floating torii gate. Afterward, we returned with enough time to walk through the Peace Park and finish at the museum. This sequence matters: the museum is an incredibly heavy experience, so ending the day there feels right. What sets Pancho apart is more than his flawless timing. He’s warm, down-to-earth, and genuinely likeable. His storytelling comes from a balanced, middle perspective, which makes it even more compelling. Pancho turned what was already an important visit into one of the most memorable experiences of our two weeks in Japan. Both he—and this deeply meaningful tour—are not to be missed.

Hi Patrick, thank you so much for your wonderful review to the tour! That was a great day, not only for you and your company, but also to me as a guide and local too. I really glad that day was memorable. We enjoyed perfect timing to see the floating torii gate at perfect timing. Visiting Atomic-Bomd Dome, hearing stories are too emotional, some tours provides you only from limited perspectives. However, I really happy/proud to hear we shared middle perspectives stories, feelings which I really pay attention, thank you! On top on that, I was happy to introduce our local comfort food, and "pickey eaters(according to you)" liked it, finished all:-) as an unofficial Hiroshima-style Okonomiyajiki ambassadar. Thank you for joining, that was a memorable day to me too, Have a nice trip! Pancho
