About Tour Guide Kahori M.
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!

“Hiroshima ”
Thank you so much! We truly enjoyed our time with you and appreciate your patience and guidance today. Such a heavy topic to do with young kids but you were so good with them.

“All I want to say is: Thank you!”
The day with Kahori could not have been better. She is such a kind and delightful woman, and she was able to answer all of my many questions, so that our time together simply flew by. For me, an absolute recommendation to anyone considering taking this tour with her. Dear Kahori, I truly enjoyed the time we spent together. I would especially like to thank you for your knowledgeable, warm, and ever-considerate presence at the Peace Museum. You were always there, yet gracefully remained in the background, allowing me to move at my own pace and fully absorb the deeply moving moments of this human tragedy. I noticed and appreciated this more than I can say, and I will always be grateful to you for it. The second part of the day on Miyajima, by contrast, felt light and relaxed—like spending time with an old friend. I value that greatly and thank you from the bottom of my heart. I am so glad to have met you, and if I return to Hiroshima one day, I am certain we will meet again. Dear Kahori, thank you for everything!
Kahori M.
Dear Stefan-san, Thank you very for your kind comments. Your stories, based on your travels around the world, were very interesting and insightful. Thank you for sharing your back ground with me as well. I also thoroughly enjoyed the tour. I am truly grateful for that. Please come back to Japan, to Hiroshima, again. There are still so many things to see and experience! Again, thank you very much, Kahori

“A fabulous day with Kahori ”
Kahori was the perfect guide for our group of 6 ladies. She was professional, knowledgeable and fitted in with us like a friend. The transport, some entry tickets and lunch were booked in advance and the day ran smoothly at a pace we were comfortable with. We would highly recommend Kahori and hope one day we can revisit.
