About Tour Guide Yoshiyuki Y.
I was born and raised in Hiroshima, and I have been guiding visitors for more than ten years. For the past three years, I have been a professional guide, and I have conducted over 200 paid tours.
My specialties are guiding visitors around the Peace Memorial Museum, the Peace Park, and Miyajima Island. I also enjoy introducing people to Saijo, which is famous for its sake breweries.
Thanks to my long experience, I am able not only to explain the exhibits and monuments, but also to share the deeper stories behind them. Many of my guests have told me they especially appreciated this.
As a second-generation atomic bomb survivor, I feel a strong responsibility to pass on the stories of Hiroshima to people from around the world. At the same time, I want my guests to enjoy the beauty and hospitality of this city.
I look forward to guiding you and creating memorable experiences together.
Thank you very much

I had a very enjoyable and thorough tour with my guide yesterday. The pace was excellent and we had a thorough opportunity to explore all the different important landmarks in building buildings.

“Day trip in Hiroshima”
Very smooth and memorable day together with Mr Yoshisan! He has a brochure filled with images he has created, so he can explain many things in advance. I would recommend him to anyone that wants to know Hiroshima and it’s history. Arigatô, YoshiSan

Hi, I am Emiko, Hiroshima Prefectural Government Licensed Guide Interpreter. I was born and raised in Hiroshima, and I love sharing the history, culture, and everyday life of this beautiful region with visitors from around the world. As the child of an A-bomb survivor, Hiroshima's history is deeply personal to me. I believe that sharing its story of tragedy, resilience, and hope for peace is at the heart of my guiding. In addition to Hiroshima's Peace Memorial Park and Museum, I also enjoy introducing visitors to the beauty of Miyajima, Hiroshima Castle, Shukkein Garden, and other local treasures. I tailor each tour to your interests, whether history, culture, food, or daily life. I always hope that our guests will take away lots of positive energy from Hiroshima, a city that was resilient and revived like a phoenix, in spite of its sad history. While realizing customers' wishes, I will introduce you the beauty of Hiroshima, Miyajima and so on, which are tranquil and peaceful places with a unique charm that cannot be found in big cities. I am happy to answer any questions about things Japanese. I'll do everything to the best of my ability to make your trip enjoyable and fruitful. I look forward to welcoming you and making your visit truly memorable!

Hello, welcome to my profile! I'm Keiko (Kay). As a national certified guide deeply passionate about the rich history, culture, and natural beauty of this area, I am eager to share these experiences with you. With over 16 years of experience living abroad, mostly in Europe, I've had the privilege of immersing myself in diverse cultures and meeting incredible people from around the world. I'm sociable, outgoing and love making new connections wherever I go. I'm also very active, enjoying sports like badminton, biking, jogging, and dancing, especially zumba and salsa. On top of that, I've been playing the piano for over *xx years, a passion that brings balance to my life. (The reason XX is simply because I hesitate to disclose my age...) Health and nutrition are important to me, as is the same to everyone, and I love exploring new ways to stay healthy and enjoy good food! Our itinerary will take us through some of the most iconic landmarks, as well as a few hidden gems that only locals know about. Whether you’re interested in exploring ancient architecture, indulging in the local cuisine, or learning about the fascinating history that has shaped this place, I am here to tailor the tour to your interests. Would I be a good fit for your company here in Hiroshima? Warm regards, Keiko(Kay)
