Excellent tour and tour guide

5.00The tour was absolutely incredible. We had Hika as our tour guide, and he is a second-generation atomic bomb survivor. It was incredibly moving to hear about his personal connection to the event and to learn from someone with such deep knowledge and understanding of Hiroshima’s history. He treated everyone with kindness and respect and thoughtfully answered all of our questions. The itinerary was excellent, and Hika’s guidance made the experience even more meaningful. I can’t recommend this tour enough. It was incredibly well organized, educational, and one of the most impactful experiences of our trip.
Best way to experience Hiroshima

5.00Yasue was an incredibly friendly, engaging, and informative tour guide! We were so lucky to have her describing Hiroshima's history and sharing the day with us. She brought in personal anecdotes in describing the events of the atomic bombing and also emphasized the focus on peace in the city as a response to the tragedy. I learned a great deal and have so much appreciation for Hiroshima.
Great tour
