Review for: Guide in English

Our tour guide, Yuki, was absolutely fantastic and made our visit to Miyajima a truly memorable experience. She shared so much fascinating information about the island, its history, culture and beautiful temples, bringing everything we saw to life. Yuki’s extensive knowledge and thoughtful planning also helped us make the most of our time. She knew exactly how to navigate the island efficiently, allowing us to avoid long waits and crowds while still seeing some of the most beautiful and significant temples and sights. She was engaging, friendly and incredibly knowledgeable, keeping us interested throughout the entire tour. We learned so much and felt like we experienced the very best of Miyajima in the time we had. We couldn’t have asked for a better guide!

We had a lovely morning with our guide Yuki exploring areas of Miyajima that we would never have found on our own. Would definitely recommend Yuki to anyone!

Kaori was a great guide! She explained the history of Hiroshima and the shrines. She also took great pictures of us. She was very helpful in exploring the island considering the time we had.

Kaori, our guide is the best! she reached out a day before and helped us get to the island the best way possible, which saved us so much time. Upan arrival Kaori got us up to the cable cars well ahead of the crowds and continuesly gave us great tips on where to stand and where to go! loved that she kept taking pictures of us and is very knowledgeable about the island and it’s surroundings. Tip 1. If you are staying near Peace Park, take the Heritage Ferry and opt to meet your guide on the island. 2. as with most sights in Japan…Go early! 3. You may want to stay and wander around a little longer after the tour as 4 hours is a little short.

Our guide, Kaori was knowledgeable, kind and thoughtful which led to an amazing trip. The day was extremely hot and she ensured we took regular hydration breaks and tailored our day to the extreme heat. Not only did she give tips for the whole day - we got to see the torii gates at Itsukashima Shrine and both high and low tides, but she also made suggestions on how to plan our next day to avoid the crowds. She also took pictures throughout the day and took us to places we would have missed touring on our own.

we had a fun day with Yoshi our tour guide. she was funny, friendly, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. very accommodating to what you want to do throughout your tour. communication was great, we received a few messages the day before our tour to confirm time and meet up location and Yoshi was there early and ready to go as soon as we arrived. We did lots of walking so be prepared with comfortable shoes and clothing! I am glad we found this private tour last minute, it will definitely be a highlight of our Japan trip!

  • One of the famous foods in Hiroshima is okonomiyaki. There are actually two main styles of okonomiyaki: Osaka-style and Hiroshima-style. For more details on the differences, please ask your guide.
