Hello, I'm Pancho. I'm Japanese, but please call me Pancho. I love being dubbed "Pancho", because only my old friend call me like that. I'm a certified local licensed English tour guide in Hiroshima, Japan and I'm a son of Atomic-Bomb survivor which means my father and grand parents are survivor of the Bomb in 1945. It was lucky that all of them survived and I'm here. I will share what happened to my family during the tour if you want. I was born and bred in Hiroshima and would like to share my lovely hometown to guests from all over the world not only what happened here in 1945, but also local things, Japanese(Hiroshima's) customs as a local. I have been working for a long time as a company employee of global heavy equipment dealership in Japan. I had relocated approx 10 years separate with my family, so back to Hiroshima in 2018. I worked at local company and left during Covid situation when I got 50-something year old, so I just want what I like/ interested, then I started "Virtual Tour Guide" in 2021. Now I would like to focus "In person tour guide" when Japan open to the international tourists. However, I have approx 400 guiding opportunities since October 2022, when Japan open gates for individual guest and received good reviews. My guiding feature is "flexible tour" that I can handle and follow what guests are interested in / would like to see more to make guests' experience fully memorable. I can arrange your dietary restrictions such as "vegan, haral familier restarurants", less-walking distance, depends on your ideal walking pace, nice souvenier shop for your family/friends, things to do after the tour (food, restaurant, bars, anime shop and more) in Hiroshima. Looking forward a booking from you and see you there! Selected one of Best Guide by Japanese Travel agency. I am not a driver. I can accompany you in your vehicle or I can arrange for a separate car and driver.
