Hi, I'm Susumu, your friendly local host in Nagasaki! I absolutely love this city, especially the stunning ocean views from various spots, some of which are still off the beaten path for tourists. The rich culture shaped by Nagasaki's unique history fascinates me, and I'm always excited to share it with visitors. One of my favorite things to do is explore the city's historical sites, including those I'm still discovering myself. I also enjoy spending time in Peace Park and Glover Garden, two neighborhoods I know very well. The local food scene here is incredible, especially the fresh fish prepared in all sorts of delicious ways. As a Nagasaki expert, I can guide you to the best places for breathtaking views and introduce you to some fantastic local restaurants and pubs. Whether you're looking to enjoy a quiet moment by the ocean or dive into the city's vibrant culinary scene, I'm here to make your experience unforgettable. I can't wait to show you around and share the beauty and history of Nagasaki with you!

My reviews

We had a fantastic day with our guide Shin. Our meeting point was at the cruise terminal. During our tour we visited two temples, had a tea cerenomy, tried a lot of different food and drinks, had an ice cream formed like a rose. Shin managed to fulfill our wishes in one tour. A great experience. Ask for Shin!

Wonderful and unique tour of the beautiful city of Nagasaki. Our guide Shin was very gracious and accommodating to help us see all we had requested. We went to several specialty shops . We had an amazing experience having tea at a Buddhist temple. A rare and special experience!

Shin made sure we saw the areas we were interested in from the ropeway cable car to the Peace park and Stadium. We had an amazing experience having tea at a Buddhist temple. Best green tea I have ever had. He took us to some specialty shops we had requested. Shin was so gracious and accommodating. One of the best guide experiences we have ever had.
