Hi, I’m Hoshie! I’m a national government licensed tour guide from Osaka. I moved to Kagoshima in 2021, and after living here for four years, I’ve completely fallen in love with this amazing place. That’s why I decided to become a guide in Kagoshima!
Kagoshima is a perfect blend of stunning nature and rich culture. We can see the majestic Sakurajima volcano from the city, which reminds us the powerful natural forces. Kagoshima was home to major Meiji Restoration figures, so history lovers will find plenty to explore. And of course, the food is incredible—famous for Kurobuta (Berkshire pork), Satsuma-age (fried fish cakes), and Shochu (a local distilled spirit).
I’m passionate about history and love visiting historical sites all over Japan, especially in Kyoto and Nara, where I can explore Japan's ancient history. I also like outdoor activities like kayaking, hiking, and camping. Kagoshima’s natural landscape is perfect for these adventures, so there’s always something new to discover!
I look forward to sharing wonderful Kagoshima with you and making unforgettable memories together!

“Our day wth Hoshie K”
Great experience. Hoshie.K met us at the boat terminal at the agreed time. This tour was our shortest one in Japan and South Korea. We spent our morning strolling thru beautiful gardens. We also did some Tie Dying and had a great traditional lunch. Hoshie was very knowledgeable and easy to understand. Thank you Hoshie for a great time, see you next time I’m in Japan
