Hello! Thank you for visiting my page. I’m Kana, a government-licensed guide interpreter based in Kagoshima, Kyushu. Although Kagoshima is a little off the main tourist routes, it’s a truly special region blessed with spectacular scenery, fascinating history, active volcanoes, relaxing hot springs, and the warm hospitality of its people. As a lifelong Kagoshiman, I’d love to share not only famous sights but also hidden local spots where you can experience the authentic rhythm of everyday life in Japan. With a background in teaching and a passion for nature, food, and travel, I enjoy helping guests connect deeply with the local culture and creating experiences that stay in their hearts long after the journey ends. I look forward to welcoming you to Kagoshima! Let’s explore together and make wonderful memories in this beautiful corner of Japan.

Overview of your Kagoshima tour

Experience the charm of Kagoshima on this private shore excursion to Sengan-en Garden and Sakurajima Volcano. Built in 1658 by the Shimazu clan, Sengan-en is a beautiful Japanese garden framing the view of Sakurajima across Kinko Bay. Its ponds, bamboo groves, and stately residences reflect the legacy of the Shimazu family. Inside the garden, the Shoko Shuseikan Museum showcases Kagoshima’s role in Japan’s early modernization and is part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site. As a National Licensed English-speaking guide born and raised in Kagoshima, I will meet you at Kagoshima Port to begin our journey. Traveling comfortably by private car, I’ll share local stories, history, and life beside the volcano — helping you feel the warmth and spirit of my hometown. This tour is customizable upon request, allowing you to adjust the itinerary or include nearby attractions to suit your interests and pace.
