I was born and raised in Hiroshima, and my love for this city led me to switch from nursing to guiding. As a guide, I specialize in Hiroshima city downtown, Miyajima, Futaba no Sato, Onomichi, and Tomo-no-Ura. I also introduce secret photo spots and hidden gems. Using my experience as a nurse, I prioritize meticulous care and bring my natural brightness, aiming to provide a guide experience that allows you to fully enjoy Hiroshima.

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!

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.

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. I'm sociable, outgoing and love making new connections wherever I go. I'm also very active, enjoying sports like badminton, biking, jogging, and dancing, especially zumba and salsa. 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. Whether you’re interested in exploring ancient architecture, indulging in the local cuisine, or learning about the fascinating history that has shaped this place, I am here to tailor the tour to your interests. Would I be a good fit for your company here in Hiroshima? Warm regards, Keiko(Kay)

Hi! Thanks for reviewing my profile. I am Australian, from Sydney originally but my life with Japan and its culture and history spans 30 odd years and I have been a Hiroshima resident for 18 of those 30 years. I joined GoWithGuide just recently but be assured I have led many tours in Hiroshima and more widely throughout metropolitan and regional Japan, sharing conversations about the unique society, its fascinating culture and history. I also have written several tourism blogs for inbound tour companies and also the Hiroshima Prefectural Tourism Bureau. I speak fluent Japanese and I have immersed myself in the experience of living here in modern and traditional culture and spent many years studying martial arts Aikido and Iaido. I also have a strong interest in Buddhist teachings. My Japanese calligraphy work over the years has been received recognition and several awards and commissions both in Japan and elsewhere. I'm looking forward to spending a great experience sharing the culture and history of Hiroshima with you.

Hi everyone. I'm Kazumi. I am a qualified tour guide.I have been guiding Hiroshima since 2010. Through guiding Hiroshima, I can give my guests my knowledge of this area and Japanese culture.

I also believe that meeting with local people is the best way to know the area. I was born and grew up in Hiroshima. I am very happy to give you wonderful time and memories in Hiroshima.

“Excellent guide and day in Hiroshima”
This was my second time visiting Hiroshima for the day and also the second time choosing Kazumi as my guide. Kazumi is an excellent guide in every way, customising the itinerary and experience to your needs and the weather. I learnt and experienced so much both times. Kazumi is a skilled conversationalist, as well as being a local Hiroshima woman, well-versed in its history and culture. I think it is important to have a guide to help navigate visiting Hiroshima. There is a lot to take in and process on all levels and Kazumi is well-recommended as a guide to help with all of this. Both times, I travelled from Kyoto to Hiroshima and back in the day and this is very doable as well if it works with your itinerary. My personal thanks to Kazumi for being such an excellent, warm and informative guide and companion on my visits To Hiroshima.

“Incredible Experience ”
Our trip was perfect! She greeted us in the lobby of our hotel right on time and guided us on a train ride to the ferry station. She told us about herself and provided background on the area. She’s so knowledgeable and kind. Thank you, Miyu for making our trip to Miyajima Island so memorable.
Miyu F.
Thank you for your kind comment. We were lucky with the weather and had a pleasant morning stroll around Miyajima. I hope you enjoyed watching a baseball game in Tokyo as well. Wishing you many wonderful memories during your time in Japan!

“A memorable visit to Hiroshima ”
We spent half a day with Rika in Hiroshima. It was very memorable and educational. She's a very lively and engaging guide who knows history and off the beaten path places. She also brought us to a local place for lunch, which was both tasty and entertaining. We couldn't be happier with her tour!
Rika F.
Thank you very much for your lovely review. Although it was only a half-day tour, I’m truly happy that both families showed interest in Hiroshima’s history and recovery, and that we had the chance to talk about so many things together. I still have a lot to learn myself, and I continue to hope for peace in the world. I sincerely hope to see you all again someday. Thank you so much to both families for joining the tour. Rika
