Extremely interesting tour. Great guide with excellent knowledge. An excellent way to see the many sights.
This is best one day tour of Hiroshima. Our tour guide Tom (Tsutomu) was excellent. He made our family feel very welcome and he was very knowledgeable. Highly recommend this tour and request Tom.
An excellent outing with family managed very well by our guide Mr Kiyoshi who made sure he pointed out all the important points about the places we visited. The information was tailored to our interests as well. Miyajima was wonderful and Hiroshima was solemn. Our driver Mr Itami was also very cheerful and knew good landmarks for viewing and pictures. Thank you for making our trip memorable.
Thank you very much for your kind feedback. We’re delighted to hear that you had a wonderful time with your family and that both Mr. Kiyoshi and Mr. Itami helped make your visit memorable. We truly appreciate your thoughtful comments and will be sure to share them with our team. We hope to welcome you again in the future!
Our guide Tom was from Hiroshima and had so much knowledge, providing us history of the beautiful people and places of Hiroshima. The memorial is a place that everyone should see and maybe our world wars would stop. Thank you Tom for sharing!!!
