Good and interesting guidance. Competent tour guide. Only the heat was bothering us. The tour by public transport used to be something different.
Our guide was fantastic....

Our guide was fantastic. It was so much fun to travel on a train and ferry like the locals and to have someone explain things for us. We learned alot and would do it again in a heartbeat!

This is an essential necessary tour that should be done or necessary for any political aspirants for political office. It’s amazing man’s inhumanity to one another and how this atrocity happened. It’s very painful but a necessary restorative review of our history and very well done by the tour guide we had “Noa” she was knowledgeable and very sensitive to our need from when we first visited miyajima island by ferry and then the peace museum. She was very gracious and knowledgeable and Credit to your company. we enthusiastically endorse the store if there is any curiosity about our shared history this is an essential reflective part of our history that fortunately via Tor has made available to all of us as museums go of the park and the museum are excellent put together.
A wonderful way to see an important city

Our guide, Maki was wonderful. Knowledgeable and kind she also gave us a lot of guidance on transport. My husband uses a rolling walker and she suggested that rather than hire a driver for the whole day at a cost of over $350, she suggested just getting a taxi when needed which saved a bundle! We saw the Atomic Bomb Museum and Peace Park and then took the ferry to Setonaikai National Park on an island off the coast with an impressive Shinto Shrine and Tori gate that is in the water since that was the original entrance to the shrine. The tame deer there were cute (but can become pesky) and through luck were able to see a traditional Shinto wedding ceremony while in the shrine itself. All in all a safe, comfortable and fun way to experience Hiroshima.
Must Do!

Maki was a wonderful guide that we had hired in Hiroshima for two days. She’s very knowledgeable and answered all of our questions that we had. She spoke great English, and was easy to understand which is hard to find when traveling in Japan. She knows so much about Hiroshima and its history and we learned so much about this beautiful city in a short amount of time. I highly recommend hiring her either for six or eight hours. She put together a schedule for us based on what we were interested in seeing and learning about, and had some great ideas on things to do on our own as well. She was respectful honest and very pleasant to be around. I would definitely come back to Hiroshima and hire her again as our tour guide. she was wonderful!!!! 10 out 10 stars
