Hey there! I'm Kaori, your friendly local host here in beautiful Hiroshima. One of my favorite things to do is to stroll through the streets of Miyajima, indulging in delicious treats, and capturing the perfect pictures of this picturesque island. When I'm not exploring Miyajima, you can find me cruising to Sandankyo, enjoying the vibrant autumn leaves or the lush greenery of spring. As a Hiroshima guru, I know this city like the back of my hand. From the hidden gems of Miyajima to the serene beauty of the Hiroshima Botanic Garden, I've got you covered. Need recommendations for authentic eats or charming restaurants? I've got you covered! Whether you're craving adventure or seeking tranquility, let me show you the best of Hiroshima. Let's make unforgettable memories together in this gem of a city!

Kaori tailored the day around our needs and still managed to squeeze in more than we'd thought possible. We had a wonderful day and greatly appreciate the effort she went to ensuring we caught the right connections before and after our tour. She was even the unofficial master- photographer! Thank you so much Kaori.

We had the best day, very knowledgeable of the area her name is Kaori. She was lots of fun and took lots of photos of us so we could remember our day.
