“Exceptional Tour of Hiroshima ”
Our tour of Hiroshima with Mayumi is the top highlight of our 2 week stay in Japan. Our family of 4 truly enjoyed every moment of day that was packed with visiting important historical sites and beautiful landmarks. Mayumi's knowledge base is unmatched to any other guide we've had. She was so gracious to schedule a last minute tour for us and squeezed in the most amazing experiences. Thank you so very much Mayumi! You truly made our visit to Hiroshima and experience we will never forget.

Dera Krysla, I am very honored to receive your excellent review. I appreciate that you made the time to come to Hiroshima in spite of the hot weather. Hoping you and your family enjoy the rest of your stay in Japan, even though the hot and humid weather is likely to continue. All the best. Mayumi

We had a fabulous day with Mayumi! She is extremely knowledgeable, very kind and thoughtful and patient. She was mindful of the needs of the various members of the group and effortlessly catered for them all! We learned a great deal in our time with her and would highly recommend her to guide you around Hiroshima and Miyajima!!

Dear Elana. Your beautiful review is very much appreciated. I was so grateful for the graciousness and thoughtfulness of you and your sister in coming all the way to Japan with your father to fulfill his wish that he wanted to come to Japan for a long time. It was surely my honor to have spent the wonderful time with you two and your great father. Wishing you and your family all the best for happiness, long life and peace. In gratitude. Mayumi

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.

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.

Hi, I'm Kahori, a nationally licensed guide interpreter, and have just started working with GoWithGuide! I’m delighted to show people around this area. For the past almost 10 years, I have mainly guided foreign medical professionals around Hiroshima City and Miyajima, gaining a deep understanding of the effects of radiation and the support for A-bomb survivors. Hiroshima is a city of rivers and the sea. Along the rivers Cherry trees line, and the calm Seto Inland Sea, dotted with islands, creates a stunning landscape. Also, the sea has many islands called "art islands" which have fantastic arts relating to the art festival "Setoushi Triennale". In addition to our two World Heritage Sites, this area is rich in attractive resources. I hope many of you will come and experience this fascinating land. Personally, I am very passionate about modern art and enjoy sports like stand-up paddle boarding (SUP) on our rivers. I look forward to meeting you, interacting with you, and also, learning from you!
