Guide Details
Hikari (or Henry)
I, founder of hirovip (professional guide agency in Hiroshima for VIP travelers) and a national government licensed guide, am a Japanese native who provides a unique fusion of cultural authority and a distinguished 15-year career in global finance. Having lived for a decade in major hubs like Paris, Boston, Hawaii, and Chicago, I offer a refined international outlook and full bilingual mastery of English and Japanese. With a MBA holder having worked for global 500 fortune French company for years, I am uniquely qualified to communicate with VIP guests and C-suite executives and delivers sophisticated comparative analyses of Japanese history, economy and culture. Deeply rooted in his hometown's legacy in Hiroshima, I offer a profound perspective as a third-generation atomic bomb survivor. I am dedicated to offer foreign travelers the space and opportunity to reflect on peace, ensuring VIP guests receive enlightened, high-level narratives that far exceed standard luxury travel. In Hiroshima, my clients enjoy the Peace Memorial Park(bomb dome building) and Itsukushima Shrine in Miyajima with the private cruise around the iconic shrine gate floating ocean that I can make arrangement exclusively for them. If requested, sake brewery tour in Saijo Hiroshima is also a great option to be added in their itinerary. On top of that, Naoshima and other Setouchi region where the cutting-edge contemporary arts meets beautiful ocean of Seto Inland Sea are also my expertise area. Very flexible in terms of schedule and I can commit myself to be an exclusive guide during the entire journey of my VIP clients with meet & greet service at the major airport and station.
