Yuko was an excellent guide. She showed us the grounds of a lovely garden, as well as the Hiroshima Castle, Atomic Bomb Dome, Peace Park and Peace Memorial Museum. In addition to being a very informed guide, Yuko also showed us how to make paper cranes and offer them to the monument. The additional context made this very impactful morning even more memorable.

Hiroshima is a vibrant, and as history tells us, resilient city. We had a perfect blue sky day to learn from our kind, gracious and passionate guide, Yuko. Her knowledge of all things Hiroshima made this such a great tour. In sharing her own personal stories of growing up in the city it allowed us to feel more connected to it. We learned about how history shaped the city we see today, including its fabulous food and kind people. We were very glad to have chosen this tour as part of our trip, and can recommend this to anyone who really wants to learn about this city, and is prepared to walk around and immerse oneself in it.

Yuji was a fantastic guide for Hiroshima he was very knowledgeable and considerate and we didn’t feel rushed at any time. Yuji gave us lots of great information and had English material for us if we needed further explanation. Highly recommend this tour and Yuji as a guide. John

We had the most amazing tour with Sachi, so grateful to find an official local tour guide, that guided us perfectly for our 4 hour tour, including organising lunch and helping us to make sure the day before we met her we made the most of our stay. To have her pick us up from our hotel and walking everywhere and back was ideal for us as a family. Highly recommend Sachi.
