About Tour Guide Haruna H.

Your Local Storyteller in Nagasaki | History, Culture & Local Flavors.

Hello! I'm a passionate local guide based in Nagasaki, a city with a uniquely rich history and a vibrant food culture. Having traveled to Australia, Guatemala, and Peru, I love meeting people from all over the world and sharing the magic of meaningful travel.

Before settling in Nagasaki, I lived in historic Takayama, where I spent countless unforgettable moments walking the streets with travelers from diverse backgrounds and sharing local traditions.

To me, guiding isn't just about showing top sights-it's about storytelling. I bring Nagasaki's fascinating history to life through its heritage, hidden spots, and mouthwatering local cuisine. Whether we are exploring historical landmarks or tasting local dishes together, my goal is to make you feel like you are exploring the city with a local friend.

Let's walk through Nagasaki together and create stories you'll cherish forever!
