Had a great time with Shin, he’s born and raised from Nagasaki so he knew the area really well and customized the whole experience to what I wanted. Really knowledgable about the history and had a lot of great recommendations for what to do next for me.

Sho provided an exceptional tour catering to a variety of ages and interests. It was jam packed for the seniors in the group who had interests in the Nagasaki Abomb experience. He was able to listen and answer questions specifically for the person most interested and provided his own personal family experience. We also had a young foodie in the tour and he adjusted the schedule to deliver on several quick food stops. The wagyu beef was amazing. Also experienced some specific sushi local to the area. We were a group of 7 with 3 which had some mobility challenges in their late 70s and early 80s. Trying to keep all engaged while personalizing in a 3 hour tour was a task. Appreciate his kindness and flexibility.

Senyo was a fantastic and knowledgeable host who gave us an enjoyable whistle-stop tour of Nagasaki. He was very friendly and taught us many things about the city that we otherwise would not have known. He showed us a few hidden gems that we really appreciated seeing!

Sho was amazing! Before we even got to Nagasaki he contacted me and asked about our preferences. I had a trip with my family that included my mom and my 8 year old. Sho accommodated our preferences and he took us to places that were not crowded and explained us their local costumes. He is simply the best, thank you for everything!

Miki and I had a great day, she was very knowledgeable and tailored the tour to help me deal with a foot injury I had just suffered. We went to all the spots I wanted to go, and she took me to some places I didn't know about. It was a great overview of the city.

What you’ll do

Perhaps best known for being the site of a WWII tragedy, Nagasaki has rebuilt itself as one of Japan’s most charming port cities, with culturally significant attractions far beyond museums and memorials. You’ll get a three-hour crash course in navigating Nagasaki, from its lively shopping streets to the peaceful Nagasaki Seaside Park – and get plenty of food recommendations at Chinatown along the way. You’ll see the curiously-shaped Fukusai-ji temple, rebuilt after WWII as a mausoleum for fallen Japanese soldiers, but you’ll also experience the side of Nagasaki’s history you might be less familiar with at the European-style Oura Cathedral and Dutch Slope – a stone-paved street with the former Western-style residences of foreign traders.
