Hello! I’m Mariko. Please call me Mary.
I mainly guide tours of Miyajima and Peace Park in Hiroshima Prefecture.
I was born and raised in Hiroshima, but I have lived abroad, graduated from a university in the United States, and even lived in Italy.
I love traveling alone and have traveled to many countries, where I have had heartwarming interactions with people.
I would like to give back to the people from overseas who come to Japan.
I studied design and architecture, so I’m interested in art. If you’re interested, let’s go around Hiroshima’s art spots together.
Let’s explore and have unforgettable happy memories together in Japan.
I am looking forward to meeting you soon.

Mary, our Hiroshima guide, was the BEST!
Our guide, Mary, was open to anything we suggested. She answered every question we had. We ate our meal during our time together. She gave us several recommendations for our lunch & ours was delicious! We also purchased rice ice cream for dessert, it was not a fav of mine, but I didn’t know until I tried it. She has grown up in Hiroshima & shared so much insight & knowledge! Our private guide was worth every penny she earned! Vicki & Barbara
