    Great mix of history, food and beautiful scenery
    Carole_M, Oct 2024
    Our guide Rimona was a pleasure to be with. She is knowledgeable and prepared to do the best tour of both Myiajima And Hiroshima. Very grateful for her service! We had a beautiful day with two different boat rides. Time for some shopping. She introduced us to favorite foods and historical places. Our fav food was at the Konokomyaki restaurant!! Also Hiroshima oysters are wonderful.. and we have tasted many! Don’t miss these two food experiences. Fishcake on a stick very good in Myajima. It was a 10 star tour.

    Milky was approachable, friendly and patient. Her personality and knowledge made the day - las a local, her insight was unique and her recommendation for lunch was delicious. Can't recommend her highly enough
    Amazing tour

    I absolutely loved my tour and especially my tour guide. She was so informative and knowledgeable about everything on the tour. It was such a great experience! The only drawback was that because I was traveling solo I had to pay twice the amount. I didn't feel I should pay double.

    Arki was great, allocating time for each itinerary location to ensure we did not feel rushed at the end of the day. The day went so quick but finished the day with a better understanding of the lingering affects of war on families
    Great tour a definite must do
    Christa_P, Apr 2024
    The Hiroshima museum was very interesting and full of information. Our tour guide was very knowledgeable. Miyajima Island was beautiful and was more than I expected.
    Our best tour so far in Japan!
    Roy_N, Apr 2024
    The tour guide made the experience fabulous! Without him, the experience would have been mediocre. He took us to all of the places we were interested in. He knew exactly where to go.
    Unforgettable.

    We learned so much. Can’t believe some survivors made it to their 80’s! The Museum was a moving yet traumatic experience. Everyone should do this trip. It was a highlight for us.
    Not a cruise, but a ferry ride
    Monica_S, Apr 2024
    This tour was not as advertised, the cruise is actually a ferry ride, the guide needed to have better English, unfortunately it was extremely boring, and I wish we were told that the Hiroshima Museum is self guided, you cannot really talk in there. The company charged a lot of money for a tour that wasn’t worth it at all. There needs to be more details provided because we felt that this tour was way too expensive for what it was. The day was drawn out, and we had to rearrange the schedule because the guide didn’t, so that we would make the ferry back to Miyajima in time before it closed for the day. There was no reason to have this tour be so long and so expensive. Participants should know exactly what they are getting, and this was not the case. We were extremely disappointed in this tour. Not worth it.
    Response from Host, Apr 2024
    Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding your recent tour to Hiroshima and Miyajima. We are sorry to hear that the tour did not meet your expectations and that you were disappointed with certain aspects of the experience. Regarding the points you raised: Cruise vs. Ferry: We apologize if there was confusion regarding the description of the cruise. The boat tour is designed to provide a leisurely and scenic journey through the main sightseeing spots of Hiroshima, including the iconic Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park and Miyajima Island. Guide's English Level: We apologize if you found the guide's English proficiency to be lacking. We strive to provide guides who are fluent in English and knowledgeable about the destinations. Your feedback will be taken into consideration for future tours. Hiroshima Museum: We regret any confusion regarding the Hiroshima Museum. During the tour, the guide said the memorial was crowded and asked if you wanted to be accompanied or go alone. You said you did not need the guide inside the memorial only to ask afterwards, paradoxically, why the guide did not accompany you. Pricing and Tour Details: We understand your concern about the tour's pricing and the need for more detailed information. Our pricing is in line with market prices for a full-day private tour, and we apologize if this was not communicated effectively. We appreciate your feedback, as it helps us to improve our services for future guests. We apologize for any disappointment you experienced and hope that you will consider giving us another opportunity to provide you with a more enjoyable experience in the future.

    I would definately recommend this tour. Akie was an excellent tour guide with great local knowledge & information about the historical sites. The highlight was the atomic bomb memorial park & museum which were very moving. Miyajima was also very interesting. Thank you Akie!
    Favorite tour of my trip!

    The guide is what made this tour so enjoyable. Tomo San was a kind gentleman that gave us a tour that showed us the beauty of japan and the rich history of hiroshima. Such an invaluable time.
    Great experience

    This was absolutely brilliant! Yuki our tour guide was the best. Genuine and full of interesting information. So thoughtful and so fun. We honestly could not have had a better day. Loved it!
    Engaging and friendly tour of Hiroshima and Miya Jima
    Bernadette_B, Mar 2023
    We had the most wonderful day with Kumi san. Kumi escorted us to Miya Jima and the Peace Park and museum in Hiroshima. We saw things we would have been unlikely to find on our own. Kumi’s friendly engagement made the day fun as well as educational. Kumi is knowledgeable and has great English. I would highly recommend this tour and our wonderful guide to anyone wanting to make the most of their visit to Hiroshima.
