Great tour and guide! Ishan was incredibly knowledgeable, friendly, and engaging. He made the experience both enjoyable and informative. We thoroughly enjoyed the tour and would highly recommend it.
Aimee was fantastic, it was a fun and informative bike tour. We saw some of the most interesting and historic part of Hiroshima which we otherwise would have missed.Would totally do it again. Thanks Aimee!
Did the Cycle Hiroshima bike tour and it was a highlight of my time in Japan. Our guide James was an absolute stud of knowledge, and our group soaked it up like sponges. If you like bike tours, look no further. This is the one to book. Easy to recommend. Thanks for a great morning.
Aimee was great!! She got us situated on our bikes and got us safely from place to place. She was well informed on the sites we saw. She even provided great advice on shopping after the tour. Aimee is very personable and has a great sense of humor.
This was a bike tour which enabled us to see quite a lot of the sites within Hiroshima more efficiently than if we had to walk. The cycling was at a modest pace and there was not a high degree of difficulty. (it should be noted, we were not on e-bikes). Many of the sites we saw were very sobering. Our tour included a stop at an incredible "french" style bakery which hit the spot for us7 as Westerners craving some familiar baked goods. Our guide Aimee-Linh was terrific, energetic and knowledgeable.
Awais was an amazing Tour guide! He showt us all the important places, and even some we would have never found on our own. He knows so much! And could answer all our questions. Besides that, he also is just a really Nice Guy! The tour was 3 hours but he spent an other hour with us to came with us to the museum to guide us there too. And he took us to a really Nice local food place. Amazing food. Awais gave us the best tour we had in Japan so far.
A great adventure through Hiroshima with Awais who had a fantastic knowledge of the area and history.
The bikes are great, very light and comfortable. Our guide was MeYu. She was a gorgeous soul, absolutely wonderful stories that related to her family as she is Hiroshima born and has 3 generations of family living here. We loved our day
Despite the pouring rain we enjoyed the bike ride (in the afternoon by the way) where we got great good and pleasant explanations. Definitely recommended.
We had a wonderful time with Sage on our bike tour. Was a wonderful way to see the city and our guide Sage was incredibly knowledgeable. Was very easy going which was nice for us given the rest of our trip was pretty full on. Bikes were of good quality and our guide made sure we were okay at all times when riding. Thoroughly would recommend especially if not in Hiroshima for long.
