About Tour Guide Armando V.
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.

“What a wonderful day!”
Five of us spent a day wandering some of the more interesting parts of Nagasaki with Armando. It was a well paced pleasant day as he shared with us the history of the city. He adapted the itinerary on the run to suit our needs- I recommend you also spend a day of your life with him!
“Wonderful day in Nagasaki with Armondo”
We had the most fabulous day in Nagasaki with the enthusiastic and knowledgable guide Armondo! He showed us all around his city, answering our questions in perfect English and all with a sense of humor. He was quick to adapt to our interests, and set up a fun calligraphy session in a temple for us to attempt the Japanese characters. It was a super day thanks to him!

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!
