Things to do in Hiroshima Castle

Thomas was a wonderful tour guide. He was very informative and easy to talk to. I would have liked to hear more information about the military base in Hiroshima, but I understand there was a lot to cover! This tour made me even more interested to do my own self-guided study of the city’s history. Thank you, Thomas!

1. The location is very convenient, situated in a small area right next to the entrance of Hiroshima Castle, a must-visit spot, making it easy to find. 2. The staff provides very detailed instructions and explanations on archery steps in English, ensuring even those who aren't athletic can enjoy themselves. 3. Visitors are given traditional Kyudo (Japanese archery) attire to wear, and the staff will even use their phones to capture this precious experience (videos/photos) for you. 4. Finally, you receive a commemorative sticker, creating an unforgettable memory. 5. The follow-up email after the experience is also very prompt and thoughtful. In summary, apart from the cost being a bit high and requiring a reservation, there are no downsides. I highly recommend experiencing this before or after visiting Hiroshima Castle.

This is a tour by public transportation and the group is kept very small. we only have three members on the tour. The guide Isabella is very clear in her explanation. She has lots of positive energy.

We loved the tour and even the order of the tour was perfectly planned out. Should be mentioned, the tour guide does not know perfect english but has the ability and made the effort to communicate properly at all times, very talkative and extremely friendly. Knows all the facts and curiosities around the place and was happy to answer any questions. Kept making stops to hydrate and go to the restroom.

The tour was a good value for money! the local guide’s insights made the tour more enriching. There was a good balance of guided moments and free time to go around by yourself. Very convenient for those wanting to see the highlights of Hiroshima in one day.

if we we could have given a 6th star to Yoshiko we would have. she was local, knowledgeable, and had an amazing personality. She taught us more than just the tour, she taught us how to be in Hiroshima. amazing tour. highly recommended.

glad I had joined this one day tour… both guide n his assistant were very nice, professional, had giving us lots of background of each spot. and also they were helpful for helping some of the tour member to change their train ticket. good jobs 👍👍👍

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.

Rino is a cheerful guide who keeps close tab on time, ensuring punctuality. she also helps guests to take good photos and is always smiling. The okinominya provided for lunch at Miyakayi isn’t very nice to eat. But the oysters two shops away recommended by Rino were delicious. Maybe more choices of lunch can be given.
