京都から新幹線で巡る広島・宮島1日ツアー

Our Hiroshima and Miyajima tour was one of the highlights of our trip to Japan, and much of that was thanks to our outstanding guide, Angeles from Chile. From the moment the tour started, everything ran like clockwork. We departed on time, travelled in comfort, and returned exactly as scheduled—a testament to the excellent organization of the trip. Our adventure began with a pleasant boat ride to Miyajima Island. As soon as we arrived, the first residents to welcome us were the famous deer. Unlike some overly enthusiastic wildlife elsewhere, these deer were charming, polite, and seemed genuinely interested in meeting visitors. It was a delightful and memorable encounter. Angeles then guided us through the history and significance of Miyajima's famous Itsukushima Shrine. She explained the spiritual importance of the shrine, known for its iconic floating torii gate that appears to rise from the sea during high tide. Her storytelling brought centuries of Japanese culture and tradition to life, making the visit far more meaningful than simply admiring a beautiful landmark. One of the many fun moments of the tour was when Angeles taught us the Japanese word "Talaima”. Whether we pronounced it correctly or not is another story entirely, but it certainly added to the cultural experience and gave us all a good laugh. What truly set Angeles apart was her remarkable ability to keep the entire group engaged. She delivered her explanations fluently in both Spanish and English, seamlessly switching between the two languages without missing a beat. Her enthusiasm, warmth, and storytelling skills held the audience in rapt, almost mesmerizing attention. History lessons can sometimes feel like homework in disguise, but Angeles transformed them into captivating stories that everyone wanted to hear. After Miyajima, we continued to Hiroshima, where Angeles provided thoughtful and moving explanations about the Peace Memorial and its symbolism. She carefully explained the historical significance of the monument and the powerful message it conveys about peace, remembrance, and hope for future generations. Her presentation was informative, respectful, and deeply impactful. This tour offered the perfect combination of history, culture, education, and enjoyment. Between the scenic boat ride, the friendly deer, the magnificent shrine, the moving visit to Hiroshima, and Angeles's exceptional guiding, it was an unforgettable experience. If you could take this tour, I highly recommend it—and if you're lucky enough to have Angeles as your guide, you're in for something truly special.

Excellent excursion to Miyajima Island & Hiroshima! The floating tori gate & temple were fun to see, the town was delightful. The Peace Park & museum in Hiroshima were quite powerful and emotional. Our guide, Caesar, was superb. Well spoken, very knowledgeable, did a fine job keeping track of everybody. Highly recommend him & this tour!

Long initial train ride from Kyoto, but well worth it. A part of history that hopefully will only happen once.

We travelled from Kyoto to join this tour. We consulted the company Amigo Tour’s about what time Shinkanzen to take to join the tour and booked reserved seats. Well, there are different types of Shinkansen Nozomi, Kodama and Hikari ranked from express to less express. Our JR Rail Pass didn’t allow Nozomi and what we didn’t realise was that the tour operator advised an 8:01 train that arrived at Hiroshima at 9:39 , ample time to join the tour at 10:00 . However the 8:02 train i booked wasn’t at Nozomi but a Kodama that arrived at 10:00 and we got to the meeting point at 10:10 , and they left without us and wouldn't allow us to join the tour at a later point. Thanks for nothing Amigo Tour’s.. We were also refused a refund. So we ended up doing the tour "self guided" thanks to the advice of another tour guide Mo from Japan Panoramic Tours and we had a great time. This was much easier than I thought it would be because our JR Rail Passes took us to all the locations on the itinerary including the ferry....and it turned out way better. This is included The Hiroshima Memorial Peace Park , the Atomic Bomb Dome and Miyajima Island and the famous floating Tori Gate, that wasn’t floating... very low tide. We also had a walk around in Hiroshima shopping district including a look inside SOGO a major department store.

Relevant places. Ease of booking and enough communication that saved headaches of managing logistics. Angeles the tour guide was awesome and very professional. Her passion about Hiroshima was really high and genuine. She diligently explained in both Spain and English.

It's long and tiring, but it's worth it Walks a lot and should wear comfortable shoes Try to bring water

It was a very good experience. Had enough time to enjoy Miyajima Island and the Hiroshima Peace Memorial. Jorge was knowledgeable and fun.

Long day but expert guide with great advice. Spoke in both Spanish and English. Angeles was her name highly recommended

This was a very disappointing experience wherein Viator and the outsourced partner Amigo took the money to book bullet train from Kyoto to Hiroshima and return but they provided tickets while returning from Hiroshima to Osaka without arranging for train tickets back to Kyoto during peak season of New Year. With just one hour notice, I had to buy very costly ticket and got delayed by 4 hours to return to our hotel. Very frustrating service from Viator wherein they took the money and denied the service.

Very educational, and beautiful. Tour guide Alex was very knowledgeable and professional. Recommend you will see the most interesting sights
