  We thoroughly enjoyed our tour with Yuji. Yuji was very knowledgeable and provided great insight on all the key sights on the Island.

  We enjoyed our half day tour to Miyajima from Hiroshima with our private guide, Shin, a professional guide with Japan Guide Agency, in November 20. He met us at our hotel, which was next to the train station, then escorted us to the train and then to the ferry over to Miyajima. Lots of wild deer strolling about here but not as tame as those in Nara-avoid feeding them! Our first stop after brief walk from the ferry was the famous Torii gate that stands in the water. We were not there at low tide so we could not walk out to it but were happy just seeing and it (and posing for pictures. Our guide offered to take many photos for us). We also visited the Itsukushima Shrine and learned about the different buildings and uses of the Shrine and observed a bride and other traditions. We also walked through the peaceful and beautiful Momijidani Park and learned how to get to the Miyajima Ropeway to get to the top of the mountain for great views. Our guide showed us around to see the Senjokaku Shrine area, and some of the Omotesando Shopping Arcade, where we had a snack and parted ways at the end of our half day together, as we opted to stay in and explore further. Shin made dure we knew how to get back to the ferry and train. We had an excellent walking tour and appreciated our time together. Thank you Shin! Highly recommended! (Not as part of the tour, we took the Ropeway and spent some time enjoying the ride and views from up high, thanks to Shin's directions. Worth doing if you have time! It was a beautiful day!

  This was a fun afternoon with our guide, Nob. He met us at our hotel and shared many interesting facts about Hiroshima, on our walk, bus ride, train and 10 minute ferry ride to Miajima Island. He spoke excellent English and was a wealth of knowledge. I highly recommend this tour and our guide, Nob. 10 stars!! Carol and Thom, Seattle, Washington USA

  This half-day experience was amazing. Our guide Kahori-san organized a very low-stress enjoyable day. Even before the trip she communicated via email and WhatsApp so we knew where to meet and had a good idea of our itinerary. She was very knowledgeable about the history and cultural aspects of Miyajima and was also a very adept photographer. She took us up Mount Misen, which was quite a hike but well worth it at the top! I highly recommend this tour and our lovely tour guide!
