5.00Communication was excellent. Operator was very responsive to communications about our cruise ship arrival and Japanese customs. Our guide Kaz was extremely knowledgeable about the entire Hiroshima history/peace park/atomic dome/ etc. Really a bucket list item for me. Very sobering and disturbing at times but an absolute must see

5.00Our family’s Hiroshima Peace Walking Tour with Magical Trip was deeply moving and the highlight of our trip to Hiroshima. Our guide, Kaori, was incredible—over 5 hours, she led us through all the city's remarkable sites, sharing powerful stories about the horrors the city and its people endured. Kaori’s storytelling made the history feel personal and kept our whole family engaged. We finished the tour with a wonderful lunch. If you are visiting Hiroshima, this tour is a must.
Impressive Hiroshima

5.00Great guide who showed us all the beautiful spots around memorial peace park. She spoke good English. The tour was very impressive, but there was definitely room for some light-hearted things. Our children aged 12 and 14 also loved it. We were in a small group (6 people) so every opportunity to ask questions. At the end of the tour we got a nice lunch in a very nice restaurant.
An excellent tour with a marvelous guide.

5.00We had an excellent tour with Angela today. She shared her insights and answered our questions very well, but even more gave us time and space to absorb the history of Hiroshima, the aftermath of the bomb and the city's stance on war and nuclear weapons. I highly recommend the tour and Angela as a guide, thank you !

5.00We shared a full half-day in a small (guide Hika + 3 guests) group, which made our experience more personal and interactive. Beyond the highlights of Hiroshima's peace park and Memorial museum, Hika shared with us his family history and made this terrible episode more tangible for us. Delicious lunch with a view was also a highlight in this tour, packed with information on Hiroshima and its culture, beyond August 6th... Highly recommend!
