I'm very familiar with the best sightseeing locations and attractions in the city.
Nagasaki is a fascinating and interesting city visited by lots of foreign tourists every year.
I have guided many foreign tourists as an English tour guide for the past several years..
I always enjoy guiding every tourist and provide them with my best hospitality.
I'll be looking forward to seeing you and sharing a wonderful time with you.
See you soon!

“Nagasaki Pilgrimage Tour With Yoshiko”
We had a wonderful experience with Yoshiko (Yoshi) as our private tour guide in Nagasaki. She tailored the tour to our interests, taking us to meaningful sites such as Urakami Cathedral, Nyokodo, the Nagai Takashi Memorial Museum, Nishizaka (St. Philip) Church, the 26 Martyrs Museum and Relics, Nakamachi Catholic Church, the Lourdes Grotto at Hongomachi Church, and more. She also made it possible for us to attend Mass at St. Philip’s as we had hoped. Yoshi was knowledgeable, friendly, patient, and always attentive to our pace, while also keeping us right on schedule. She even went above and beyond by helping us secure train and bus tickets for the next part of our journey. Yoshi was truly one of the best guides we had during our trip to Japan, and we highly recommend her to anyone visiting Nagasaki.

“Memorable one-day tour of Nagasaki”
Yoshi is an exceptional tour guide in Nagasaki! A local with impeccable English and extensive knowledge of her city, she made our day trip truly memorable. She thoughtfully answered all our questions and crafted a one-day itinerary that included all the highlights—Atomic Bomb Museum, Mt. Inasa, Dejima, and more. Highly recommended!

I really appreciate you taking the time out of your busy schedule to write such a lovely review. Your kind words mean a lot to me. I am so glad you chose Nagasaki as a stop on your Kyushu trip. I hope you were able to see some of the other amazing things Nagasaki prefecture offers, like the beautiful Goto Islands or the Unzen hot springs. I would love to welcome you back again someday. I hope you two liked "kakuni manjyu", Nagasaki specialty! Please extend my best to your wife. Warmly, Yoshi

Hi there! I’m Armand. Living in Nagasaki since 2016. I am living the best and most relaxing life on my permaculture homestead in the hills of Nagasaki, where you get the best views in Japan. I love my town. As a dancer and actor I love telling stories too. And there a so many great stories to share about all the interesting people that once dwelled in this adventurous town full of historical intrigues. Want to experience the rich Nagasaki culture? Eat the freshest fish of Japan? Make the most beautiful photos of hidden treasures and landscapes? Come and explore the town together with me. I’ve made it my mission to get to know everything there is to know about this place.

Hi! I'm Sho! I live in the center of Nagasaki city and work as a YouTuber, podcaster, and tour guide specializing in sharing the charms of Nagasaki. Actually, I was born and raised in Yokohama, near Tokyo, and worked for about 5 years in Tokyo. However, I fell in love with the culture and history of Nagasaki and moved here in 2020. Nagasaki has a rich history of international exchange and friendship, established about 450 years ago as an international trading port in Japan. Since then, many people from all over the world with diverse cultures and values have visited this city. I love these stories and histories of Nagasaki. Nagasaki is often associated with the sad history of the atomic bomb, which is, of course, an important part of this city's history, but Nagasaki has much more than that. I'm looking forward to introducing you to the many charms of Nagasaki!
Yukihiro (Hero)行博
Hello, everyone!! My name is Yukihiro(行博), call me "HERO". I'm eager to introduce this unique country, Japan to foreign guests. I am not a professional interpreter. I have retired from Japan Ground Self-Defense Force(JGSDF=Japanese Army) on March 2018. 大家好！ 我名字叫xing2 bo2, 請叫我xing bo。我喜歡跟外國遊客分享這個很有意思的國家---日本國。我是個業餘的翻譯導遊, 不太專業, 在2018年3月我退休了日本陸上自衛隊（日本陸軍）。 I have spent most of my career as a Army NCO(Non-commissioned officer) . My job experiences are only in the military, but there are variety of specialties, so I didn't feel boredom. I lived in many places all over Japan, such as Hokkaido 10years, Chiba 15years, Okinawa 8years and more places. 我在軍隊當陸軍士官過了大部分的生活。我的工作經驗只在軍隊內，但是它有很多兵種和工作，所以我沒有膩了。我住過日本各地的很多地方，例如北海道１０年，千葉縣１５年，沖繩16年還有別的有些地方。 I am working for the half of month as a tour-conductor in Okinawa Japan. Rest of month, I live in Nagasaki Prefecture, and work as a Triple Lights interpreter tour guide. 我一邊在沖繩當旅遊服務員大概半個月，一邊在九州長崎當Triple Lights的翻譯導游工作剩餘的月。 I am registered as a Okinawa prefectural interpreter tour guide (English & Chinese), but don't have a whole Japan area certification. So I am brushing my skill up to get it. 我登記了沖繩縣的地域翻譯導遊（英／中文），可是沒有全國的。所以為了獲得全國導遊資格，我正在繼續學外語。 I speak English, Chinese (simplify & traditional) , no problem to guide you, not like a native though. 我會說英語和中文(簡／繁)，作為您的導游沒問題，沒有母語的人那麼好。
