The tour was truly enjoyable and worth it, with a well-planned itinerary that didn’t feel rushed. The three places I liked most were Saijo Sake Brewery Street, Kure Bay Ship, and the Iron Whale Museum. Our guide, Ms. Masako, was a humorous and knowledgeable woman who shared many interesting stories.

This was one of the best tours I have ever been on, and the fact that it took place in Kure, a place I had always wanted to visit made it even more special. The tour guides were amazing, incredibly warm, and always ready to assist. I also had the chance to meet new people, enjoy a cruise, and see various historic ships dating back to World War II. We visited the Yamato Museum and the Iron Whale Museum, and getting the opportunity to actually step inside a submarine was absolutely incredible. It felt like stepping back in time and experiencing history up close. Overall, it was an unforgettable experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone who has an interest in history, naval ships, or simply wants a unique and memorable adventure.

The tour to Saijo Sake City and Kure was amazing. The tour guide was very knowledgeable and informative. The itinerary was well planned, with enough time to enjoy each sightseeing spot without feeling rushed. The recommendations were thoughtfully prepared and shared in advance, which made the experience even smoother. The team was lively, friendly, and very helpful throughout the tour. Overall, the experience was truly superb. I highly recommend using this app if you’d like a pleasant, educational tour, especially if you’re interested in learning about history, as they provide excellent English-language guides. I personally enjoyed the ferry ride the most. It was a wonderful opportunity to see rare ships, and I really appreciated that the guide translated the Japanese explanations for us. It made the tour feel inclusive, and very enjoyable.

This multi-city journey (Hiroshima to Higashihiroshima/Saijo and Kure) offered a great blend of history, culture, and views. Excellent value, and the JTB staff, especially guide Makoto-san, were friendly and welcoming. The highlight was the Irifuneyama Memorial Museum. It’s simply beautiful, serene, and felt like a perfectly preserved, intimate step back in time. I wish I could have stayed longer! Other memorable stops: Saijo Sake Brewery Street (got to sample the unique golden sake offered to President Obama) and the Kure Bay Battleship Tour and Cruise (a must-do to see ships and submarines up close). I highly recommend the Japan Maritime Self-Defense Force Museum (great for learning about mines). However, the Yamato Museum Satellite could be skipped until the main museum is renovated. Kure Shopping Street was good for lunch and souvenirs (momiji/lemon manju), though some shops were closed. Overall, a deep and rewarding look into the region's rich history. I recommend this tour!

Wow! This tour was awesome and I am wholly satisfied with it. My experience is indescribable, and the App booking process was simple, fast and convenient. And what a Guide we had Masako-san was! I think I could do it over again. The only less convenient part was having to travel from Saijo to Hiroshima and get back to Saijo again which looked a little tiresome. In general, if I had to take another of such trips, hesitation may not be in my book of thoughts.

It was a great day and I was feeling honored as well enjoying the whole day. lot of events including all expenses was really amazing to me. It was very pleasant and informative to know and to learn about Japanese culture and trend with lot of cross border nation. I excited when I heard that the which would be tasted at Sake brewery street named Kamatsura Gold was drunk by Barac Obama, former President of US. Naval cruise was fantastic also that we were able to see the live battle ships and submarine in the sea. Experience of inside of a real submarine was amazing and definitely it was a rare opportunity to me. I was also feeling emotional whe I visited former naval chief residence.

The bus tour was a comfortable ride and the explanation given during the tour was to the point. I enjoyed the Sake Tour and the history associated with it. In Kure I enjoyed the submarine visit. It was my first time experience. Our guide was friendly and I had a good day! Highly recommended.
