Hiroshima Private Tours & Local Tour Guides

“Wonderful touring and learning experience!”

Kazumi is a wonderful tour guide because she is so much more than a tour guide. From planning the trip to going through the tours, she has always been helpful and resourceful. She was accommodating when it comes to figuring out a customized itinerary. The tours themselves were great - she was knowledgeable, she explained things from both cultural and historical perspectives, she was quick to resolve unexpected needs from us such as needs for drink, snack, and bathroom. She suggested different kinds of food for us try, some very local to Hiroshima, she even made a couple restaurant reservations for us. Overall, this was a wonderful experience for us and we would wholeheartedly recommend Kazumi as a tour guide.

“Fascinating and informative day with Mayumi in Hiroshima”

Mayumi escorted and informed our family, on a day experiencing the beauty and fun vibe of Miyajima, and the sobering and confronting Peace park and museum commemorating the Hiroshima bomb. Her knowledge and patient explanations allowed a deeper appreciation of both sites, and considerably expanded on what we would have learnt without a guide. We all highly commend Mayumi to anyone wanting to see and better understand these important tourist destinations.

Dear Rob, I am honored to receive your wonderful review. It was a pleasure to hear your stories, and your interest and appreciation in the culture and history of Japan and Hiroshima made it all worthwhile. All the best to you and your family. In gratitude, Mayumi

“A perfect day on Miyajima ”

This tour was fantastic and a definite highlight of our trip to Japan. We took the ferry from the peace park which was excellent and gave our achy feet a nice rest! Miyajima is a beautiful, quaint island, showing a completely different side of Hiroshima. Very scenic views of the floating Tori gate enjoyed from the temple. Pancho guided us at a perfect pace around the island, highlighting all the perfect photo spots. He also very kindly showed us the Japanese maple cake shop which allowed us to try the flavours before buying- beautiful freshly baked cakes. A lovely day exploring Miyajima with Pancho, highly recommended. Arigato gozaimasu Pancho-san

Dear Katie, Thank you so much for your wonderful feedbacks again! I'm delighted that you loved the Instagram-worthy photo spots I shared with you. From the iconic floating torii gate to those hidden scenic corners, capturing these perfect moments is such an important part of your travel memories. Your feedback about our touring pace means a lot to me. I always aim to balance giving everyone enough time to appreciate each site while covering all the island's highlights comfortably. I'm especially happy that you enjoyed the local sweets I introduced you to! Miyajima's traditional confections like momiji manju are such a delicious way to connect with the island's culture. Thank you again for joining the tour both Hiroshima and Miyajima. I really enjoyed having you all for 2 days, enyoed conversation during the tour too! Pancho
