About Tour Guide 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.

“A Meaningful and Unforgettable visit to Hiroshima”

We spent four hours with Miyu touring the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum and Peace Memorial Park, and it was a deeply meaningful experience. Miyu tailored the tour to our requests and provided valuable context on the atomic bombing, its impact on the people of Hiroshima, the treatment of survivors, and the stories behind the various memorials. Her personal experience working with atomic bomb survivors added a particularly meaningful and human dimension to her explanations. She is extremely knowledgeable, warm, and attentive, and adapted the tour perfectly to our pace and interests. Her insights added so much to our visit, and we highly recommend her to anyone looking for a deeper and more personal understanding of Hiroshima.

Thank you very much for your incredibly kind review. I was already looking forward to meeting you both even before the tour. I felt truly honored that you chose me as your guide, especially after learning how deeply interested you are in Hiroshima and its history. On the day of the tour, I really valued the time we spent talking together as we viewed the Atomic Bomb Dome and the Cenotaph illuminated after sunset. Thank you again for visiting Hiroshima.

“Miyu F. was a Fabulous Guide!”

We spent 2 days with Miyu - one at the Peace Memorial and museum and one at Miyajima island. Miyu was so knowledgable about the City and the Island and the two days spent with her were among our favorite part of our 11 day visit to Japan! She tailored the trip based on our suggested itinerary and was flexible with respect to changing things when we needed to. We loved hearing her stories of the Hiroshima survivors she has actually met and the Daisho-in temple on the island was one of the most interesting temples we visited. She timed our island ropeway trip such that we had little wait time in line and experienced the beautiful view from the top without huge crowds. We are so glad that we connected with Miyu and wholeheartedly recommend her!

Thank you very much for your warm review. It was a pleasure having you in Hiroshima. I was honored that you listened so attentively to my stories. We were also lucky to have such wonderful weather, allowing you to enjoy the beautiful views of the islands of the Seto Inland Sea from the ropeway. I hope your experience in Hiroshima will remain a cherished memory for you and your family for many years to come.

“Very informative ”

Miyu was an excellent guide and she gave very detailed information. As she's a local to Hiroshima, it makes a big difference. We enjoyed her depth of knowledge and friendly approach with the youngest amongst us. Would definitely recommend

Thank you very much for your kind review. I’m honored that you enjoyed the tour despite the very hot and humid weather. I was especially happy that your children already had some knowledge about what happened in Hiroshima and asked thoughtful questions during the tour. I hope you will always remember Hiroshima.
