5.00Kaz orchestrated a fantastic tour that we will never forget. A must do for any human being to fully appreciate the resilience of the Japanese people. It was great to have a local tour guide who was very patient with our children. Kaz organised everything down to the last detail. Highly recommend. This is a genuine review as honest as we can be.

5.00Such an amazing tour. I was a tad reticent about visiting Hiroshima but Etsko our tour guide was so good, she was friendly and very professional and sensitive to our wellbeing whilst remaining focussed. She helped us make sense of an horrific episode in Hiroshima's history. A story that needs to be told over and over as there can never be a an atom bomb attack again Thank you Etsko.
Great tour

5.00The Expierence was highly valued and our Tour Guide Hiro was exceptional from start till finish. The guidance and extra information provided during the exhibit section was greatly appreciated. The actual exhibit was not too busy around midday. There is a lot of reading. Would recommend this to others but definitely bring comfy shoes.
