So worth it!
This tour was great! Our guide was Alejandro and our bus driver was Ito-san, and they both did a great job. The itinerary is also great. There was so much to do and see in Miyajima, and I think everyone should visit the Peace Memorial Park and Museum. An incredible day--highly recommend!

My wife and I had a wonderful time on this excursion from getting to see the awesome beauty of miyakojima, majestic deer and the striking torii gate in the sea. And finished the day off with a place i think every human on earth should visit once in their lifetime hiroshimas peace park to see and feel the somber and heavy but also hopeful message of peace for the future.

Visit to Hiroshima
A great day spent visiting Hiroshima and also the Atomic Bomb Memorial. Amigo Tours did a nice job with our bullet train tickets and our tour guide Angeles was phenomenal. A very knowledgeable person and managed both Spanish and English during the tour. Angeles also ensured to bring an empathetic approach to her description of the Atomic Bomb Memorial which is important given the many viewpoints of what happened. Truly a day well spent and be prepared to walk.
