Hi, I’m Hannah, a local tour guide born and raised in Nagasaki.

My grandfather was in Nagasaki when the atomic bomb was dropped. This personal connection has shaped how I understand my hometown’s history.

On this private walking tour, we’ll go beyond dates and monuments to explore the human stories behind Nagasaki’s past, its recovery, and the city we see today.

We’ll visit important sites, share stories, ask questions, and reflect together. Rather than simply listening to facts, you’ll have time to look closely, follow your curiosity, and discover your own perspective.

As a local, I want to share not only what happened here, but also what makes Nagasaki the city it is today.

I look forward to welcoming you to my hometown.
