What I love most about Hiroshima is that it's not only known as a symbol of world peace but is also blessed with a mild climate, beautiful nature, and warm, friendly people—it’s such a comfortable place to live.

I find such peace and beauty in Hiroshima, especially on the serene Miyajima Island and during quiet walks through Hiroshima Peace Park. I love uncovering hidden stories of our city and learning about our history, particularly the enduring message of peace that Hiroshima represents.

Hi, I’m Kota

Hiroshima

One of my favorite things about Hiroshima is how close we are to both the sea and the mountains—there’s a calmness in seeing the sunset over the Seto Inland Sea from my home. I love peaceful walks around Peace Memorial Park, especially at night when the quiet really sinks in. I know the neighborhoods around Miyajima and Peace Memorial Park well, and as a Shinrin-yoku (forest-bathing) facilitator, I can help you experience Hiroshima with all five senses. Having traveled to over 70 countries, I understand the thrill of discovery, and I’m here to help you explore Hiroshima as both a traveler and a local.

Mimi 25 January 2026

Tina 4 January 2026

Whirlwind 4hr tour of main sites of Hiroshima. Lots of quick walking and public transport: train, ferry and tram. Must have IC card and cash to pay for guide's transportation costs. Worthwhile tour but not for walking impaired.

Mandy 10 January 2026

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.

Tito 5 January 2026

Ami is very nice and competent. She was the perfect guide for this day in Hiroshima and especially Miyajima

Pip 2 January 2026

I was so glad we chose to book a tour guide for our day trip to Hiroshima. Noz was fantastic. Knowledgeable, friendly, funny and easy going. He took us to all of the must-sees in Hiroshima, including lunch at an Okinimiyaki place which was amazing. Our day was emotional, informative and very enjoyable. Thank you Noz.
