Overview
Available languages
Mobile ticket
Spend the day exploring Nagasaki with me! — I'm Sho, a local who genuinely loves this city and loves sharing it.
- 100% private & fully customizable — I'll plan the day around you
- Where the locals actually eat — great food off the tourist trail
- Hidden alleys & local neighborhoods most tours never reach
- Peace Park & Atomic Bomb Museum — or skip it; the day is yours
- Cruise-friendly: pickup at the terminal or JR Nagasaki Station
This is your day, your way. Most guests start at the Atomic Bomb Museum, Hypocenter and Peace Park — but if that's not for you, we'll skip it and focus on what excites YOU: landmarks, hidden gems, cafés, viewpoints and shopping.
The list below is only a starting point — I know many more hidden spots that aren't listed anywhere. Tell me what you love, or just leave the whole day to me.
