“An AMAZING Tour”
If you’re thinking about booking a tour with Pancho (Tetsuo), book it now! I had a very specific tour request for a big group, and he was able to make a childhood dream come true! He was excellent with communication, arranging a minibus, and he was very knowledgeable and accommodating for our family. Our hearts are full with happiness from our tour with Pancho - I would recommend him to everyone!

“Memorable Morning Together”
Thank you Pancho for an insightful and educational morning! Based on his recommendation, we explored the Peace museum on our own, then met up with Pancho to walk through the Peace park and other key sites. We especially enjoyed learning his family's story, making the origami crane to donate to the Children's Memorial, and lunch together at a local restaurant.

Thank you Katrina for your message, I'm happy to hear our tour was memorable. I love sharing Origami-experience when we have enough time to do that, it was fun moment not only making paper crane, but also chatting during experience. Great to hear you and all of you enjoyed Hiroshima-style Okonomiyaki, which is our confort and having much historical story in it. Thanks again for joining, It was memorable tour to me too! Best Pancho

I was born and raised in Hiroshima, and my love for this city led me to switch from nursing to guiding. As a guide, I specialize in Hiroshima city downtown, Miyajima, Futaba no Sato, Onomichi, and Tomo-no-Ura. I also introduce secret photo spots and hidden gems. Using my experience as a nurse, I prioritize meticulous care and bring my natural brightness, aiming to provide a guide experience that allows you to fully enjoy Hiroshima.
Miyu F.
My name is Miyu. I have been a Nationally Licensed Guide Interpreter since 2009. I began my career as a tourist guide last year after working as a public servant for nearly four decades. I worked in the Atomic Bomb Survivors Support Division for 12 years until I retired from the local government, and I continue to interact with Hibakusha. Therefore, I have a lot of knowledge about A-bomb survivors, the reconstruction of Hiroshima, and the effects of radiation on the human body, which I can correctly convey to inbound visitors. I have experience in tea ceremonies and calligraphy and am especially good at guiding visitors through tea ceremony experiences. I love to watch baseball games, so I enjoy talking about them with guests from countries where they are popular. I am a volunteer medical interpreter and can respond to visitors' sudden health problems.
