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.

“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.

“An amazing day!”
What an amazing guide! Kazumi met us promptly and with a smile. Her stories about Nagasaki from her own life really brought the city to life. She was attentive to us and kept things fun for our small child. She made sure we made it back to the cruise ship on time and with amazing stories to tell.

“Perfect Hiroshima Day”
We had the best day with Kazumi, we needed to start our tour later and she was very accommodating. We loved going to Miyajima Island and learning about the history of the sacred island. Kazumi also helped us planned the rest of our time in Hiroshima and we had a great time. ありがとうございます Kazumi!
