I'm Kaku, a Hiroshima local who loves the city's vibrant energy, from passionate soccer and baseball fans to its incredible food scene. Whether it's catching a match at a lively bar or soaking in a relaxing hot spring, I enjoy experiencing everything Hiroshima has to offer. I know the best local spots—hidden restaurants, cozy izakayas, and rejuvenating hot springs that many visitors miss. Strolling through Hondori Shopping Street or reflecting at the Peace Memorial Park, I can share insights that go beyond the surface. If you're looking for an adventure filled with great food, local culture, and maybe even a soccer chat, I'd love to show you around!

My reviews

    Really great, balance between nature and culture. Kaku was a great guide, very friendly. It felt like we were visiting a friend and he was showing us around his city. we let him know it’s my birthday trip and he dedicated a song for me! really thoughtful and patient with us. thanks Kaku for a great day trip in Hiroshima.

    We had a great visit to Hiroshima with Kaku. He took the time immediately to learn all of our names including the younger members of the group expressing sincere interest in our lives. He brought us to all the points of interest in Hiroshima we had time for explaining what we were seeing while adding in points of Japanese culture we were not aware of. This was followed by a tour of the shopping district tailored to the wishes of the children after which he completed the tour by bringing us to a traditional restaurant and called ahead to make sure our large party was seated. Thank you Kaku for making our short trip to Hiroshima so memorable.

    Kaku was an amazing guide, he customised and personalised our tour to our every request, it was an absolute pleasure to have him as a guide, I will be recommending him to family and friends and anyone I know heading to the area! 11/10

    We had a wonderful time with Kaku during our tour of Hiroshima. Meeting up directions were clear and he was flexible with our late arrival. Moved us efficiently to the museums tracking the closing times so we didn’t miss anything. He was kind, considerate and respectful of the whole group and took time to learn about us including 4 children. Taught us things about Japanese culture we witnessed during our trip. After the museums and memorial visit he took us through the shipping district before bringing us to a traditional style restaurant after calling ahead to reserve us a table for our group. Thank you for making a brief stay in Hiroshima full of experiences and memories
