Hello ! My name is Akira. Please call me Aki. I am a national licensed tour guide in English for 9 years. I am specialized in Kyoto, Osaka, Nara, Kobe and Hiroshima. When you have a plan to visit those area, please contact me. In those area, you can find a traditional and cultural Japan. I will guide you wherever you would like to visit and you can enjoy Japan with me for sure. I worked for an export company for more than 30years and met many people from overseas who were interested in Japanese culture, history and buildings. So after I retired, I decided to become a tour guide. Please let me know what and where you are interested in so that I can arrange it for you, and make your itinerary which you will be satisfied with. In my spare time, my hobby is Japanese martial art Aikido (black belt 2nd grade). If you are interested in Japanese martial art, I am pleased to talk about it with you. Looking forward to your inquiry. Thank you so much for reading my introduction, and I look forward to sharing my country with you. - National guide certificate (registration number EN00593) English - Certificate of Authorized Tour Conductor (registration number 05-15-D043954) I am not a driver.

Let's explore the Hiroshima As you know Hiroshima is the only one place in the world that atomic bomb was dropped. You can see what happed in Hiroshima at that time in Peace memorial museum. And you see the Atom bomb dome. It is one of the UNESCO world heritage site. Not only that but also Hiroshima has a beautiful shrine. It is Itsukushima shrine in Miyajima island. It is also one of the UNESCO world heritage site. Not only the building of the shrine, the Torii gate in the sea is very beautiful. In this tour we see those places. It must attract you .
It was a great tour, very informative, Mr. Akira was very organized, prompt, professional, friendly. The tour was condensed due to the long ride from Osaka to Hiroshima and the island. Was so much to explore and not enough time. Mr Akira did his best to achieve all what was on the itinerary. He answered all our questions and more. I would recommend this tour with him to anyone.
Akira was an excellent guide for our Hiroshima and Miyajima tour. We traveled all the way from Osaka, which made for a long day, but he handled the logistics very efficiently and made the whole experience smooth and enjoyable. He was organized, knowledgeable, and kept everything moving so we could see a lot without feeling rushed. Hiroshima and Miyajima were both incredible, and having Akira guide us through the day made it much easier and more meaningful.
Akira was professional, timely and knowledgeable. It was a joy to be with him! Thank you Akira!
We had the pleasure of having Mr. Akira as our guide for a day tour to Hiroshima from Kyoto, and it was truly an unforgettable experience. His professionalism and reliability were evident from the start, making us feel completely at ease throughout the journey. Thanks to his meticulous planning, we didn’t have to worry about train or tram schedules and were able to fully enjoy the day with our family. It was such a relief to know everything was taken care of, allowing us to focus on the beautiful sights and meaningful moments. We highly recommend Mr. Akira to anyone looking for a seamless and enjoyable tour experience!
We take a bullet train to Hiroshima from Osaka or Kyoto. It is about one and half hours. In Hiroshima we transfer to the local train to Muyajima guchi station and take a boat to Miyajima Island. It takes about 45 minutes. In Miyajima we walk to Itsukushima shrine. After the shrine we take lunch and take a boat to Miyajima guchi and take a tram to Peace memorial park. After we visit Peace memorial museum and the Atom bom dome , we take a tram to Hiroshima station and take a bullet train to Osaka or Kyoto
