Reviews
Unfortunately, I am the lone member of the tour group. But the tour was scheduled correctly and didn't cancel for me. The guide is really kind and considerate. Give a thorough explanation and enjoy the entire journey. Thank you to my guide. Thank you. Bounus, i got chance to see the Cherry bloom along the river and Castel.
We had Subaru for our tour and he was an amazing guide and we could tell he had lots of knowledge of Hiroshima. He was also very friendly and easy going which made the tour more enjoyable. Aside from our fantastic guide, we don't think the other parts of the tour are worth the price we paid, we walked to all the destinations and public transportation is only provided for the way back to the pickup point. Not recommended for a family but for individuals who can handle the physical activity.
Subaru was excellent, great communicator and knowledgeable. great tour and specifically for small groups. Highly Recommend.
