About Tour Guide Kazumi M.

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. At the same time, I can learn their understanding of Japan and the differences between our culture and theirs, which is very interesting. 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. I am really looking forward to hearing from you.

Reviews

One of the best tours I’ve ever experienced!

Kazumi is rated as one of the best English speaking Hiroshima guides. There’s a reason— she is that good. Despite it being a miserable weather day, we thoroughly enjoyed seeing Hiroshima with Kazumi. We started our tour at the Peace Museum and she added personal commentary and stories to what we learned at the museum. We spent some time learning about the buildings that remained standing after the atomic blast and even went to the site where the bomb exploded. Next we had a delicious lunch, okonomiyaki, and then went to Miyajima · Itsukushima Shrine where we learned about the differences between shrines and temples. In every aspect of the day, Kazumi catered to our preferences. We avoided big crowds and she was infinitely patient as we took tons of pictures. She even took us back to the train station and made sure we got on the right train! The day was fantastic in spite of the weather and Kazumi was the reason. If you are able to book her for a personal tour, consider yourself lucky! We loved spending the day with Kazumi and could not recommend her more. Thank you.

Thank you for your wonderful comment. I am so happy that you enjoyed the tour although we had rain all day. I told my family about the story of finding me and they were so surprised and praised me. I will keep trying to make the guests happy and satisfied. Hope you enjoy the rest of your staying in Japan and safe back to Chicago. Thank you Kazumi

Hiroshima and Miyajima on a rainy day

We had a wonderful experience with Kazumi as our guide in Hiroshima. She was knowledgeable and thoughtfully guided us through key sites in both Hiroshima and Miyajima. As vegetarians, we especially appreciated the effort she made to find us a place where we could enjoy authentic Japanese food tailored to vegetarian/vegan preferences. Kazumi was reliable, pleasant, and easy to communicate with throughout. Her clear communication and strong command of English made the experience seamless and enjoyable.

An Incredible Day With Kazumi in Hiroshima

We’ve literally just got back to our hotel following a day with Kazumi in Hiroshima. And what a day it was! We visited the Memorial Museum and Park and surrounding areas, had a typical Okonomiyaki meal at a local restaurant and then on to Miyajima island. Kazumi was excellent as a guide. Excellent English. She went into great detail to explain everything to us. Her knowledge is excellent. And to learn about the bomb and how her family was impacted was very thought provoking. She was very relaxed and very friendly. She also answered everything we could ask of her and was great in explaining the Japanese way of life and customs. We felt like we learned so much from her. We all thoroughly enjoyed our day with her. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone thinking of using a guide whilst in Hiroshima. Thank you Kazumi for making our day so special and for looking after us. From three very happy people from the UK. Paul, Claudia and Toby.
