5.00This was a fabulous tour, our tour guide Mouloud provided us with lots of valuable information on the various exhibits and the local attractions. The Hiroshima memorials and the story behind the devastation that occurred to the city and its population were sobering and thought provoking. Our visit to Miyajima was fun and topped off with a delicious lunch. Mouloud’s guidance made all the difference to having a pleasing tour. We would recommend this tour.

5.00We enjoyed our time exploring Hiroshima and Miyajima. It is quite sobering to visit the museum and see the exhibits. Definitely a must see. The gate at Miyajima was also a pinch me moment. If in Japan a must see for both. We appreciated our guide Mouloud taking us around and navigating train, ferry and bus stations, as well as information about different aspects of the locations.
Fantastic tour of Hiroshima

5.00Our private Hiroshima tour with Mouloud was fantastic! What an incredible way to experience Hiroshima. It was especially nice to have Mouloud handle all the logistics—bullet train, buses, JR train, and ferry—which made the day seamless and stress-free. Mouloud was very knowledgeable about Japan and shared fascinating context and history at every stop. Our itinerary included visits to a Shinto shrine, the Hiroshima Peace Memorial, a ferry ride to Miyajima, lunch, and more. I highly recommend this tour to anyone looking to explore the area on a tight schedule with the help of a friendly, well-informed guide.
