Hiroshima Prefecture

I had really been looking forward to our trip to Hiroshima, highly recommended by my nieces, and it truly exceeded expectations. Our guide, Joe, met us at the station and quickly organized the group. He explained the day’s program clearly and provided headphones so we could always hear him. He shared both the history of Hiroshima and his personal connection to the city, which made it even more meaningful. We were also given a beautiful little origami crane made by his wife, which now has a special place on my desk at work. Joe’s genuine interest in us and our culture created a warm and engaging dialogue throughout the day. Hiroshima was deeply moving and thought-provoking. Lunch was lovely, and visiting the floating Torii gate and the temple on the island was simply magical. Joe has my warmest and very best recommendation.

Rino was great!! A very dynamic and fun guide 😁 The museum visit is very overwhelming because the place is very small and you can't properly observe the photo and object exhibit on the upper floor. They should have a lower capacity of people at a time so it can be appreciated. The rest of the tour was very good.

This was an excellent tour for our family (inc 2 x young teens), with our guide, Matsuko, providing excellent information and tailored content suitable for the variety of ages and nationalities on the tour. All locations included time for both guided and independent exploring. Pre-tour communication was excellent, and all instructions easy to navigate and understand. Would highly recommended, especially for the time exploring Miyajima Island.

we had a fantastic time on this tour to see Miyajima Island and Hiroshima. Astrid our guide shared lots of great information about everything to make us appreciate everything more. Both Astrid and Ito-san our driver were very friendly and cheerful. Highly recommended and enjoyable.

My Husband and I booked this tour as part of our Honeymoon. I am so glad we booked the Private Tour for Hiroshima. Our guide was Aya and we could not have asked for anyone better. She reached out to us once we booked to confirm details and check if there was any sights we were particularly interested in, as well as any dietary requirements. We were happy to take any of Aya’s recommendations for our day tour. From the moment we met her, we could feel her warmth and kindess and we knew we were going to have a great day. It was so special to have a tour with someone born, raised and still living in Hiroshima. Aya was very knowledgeable and always checking in on how we were throughout the day. There is a lot of walking, but it was made easier with Aya poining out lots of interesting facts along the way. She also took us around some spots on Miyajima Island that were less crowded, without missing any of the highlights. I cannot recommend this private tour enough.

Masa, our guide met me at the hotel and off I went on the most informative, accessible and interesting tour of my whole trip. The guide was exceptional, she covered all my questions and shared some local insights. The 4 hours fly by in the blink of an eye. this was a most interesting tour covering the horrific events of August 1945 and also seeing the Castle and finishing up in the beautiful japanese garden. if you only have time for one tour in hiroshima, make it this one. you cannot go wrong. I highly recommend this tour Thanks Masa

A very fun experience. I saw so many things that I wouldn’t have known to see if not for this tour. My guide was very nice and knowledgeable. I do recommend!!

I really enjoyed the bus tour. A smooth ride with a super friendly guide who gave us detailed information on Onomichi’s history and culture. I loved the ropeway experience, beautiful panoramic views of the sea, islands and buildings below from the observatory. The temple provided a quiet atmosphere and it blends beautifully with the natural landscape. Whether visiting alone, with children, family or as a couple, I’d recommend this place 🩷

I was the only participant on this tour for the day I booked - so I got to have my own private tour with the lovely and delightful Isabella! She had so much knowledge and passion for both Takehara and the bunny island - and we were able to get everything done in a timely manner despite a spot of traffic on the way to Takehara! the town was filled with all manner of history related to trade and merchants, and was like stepping back in time to the Edo period. The bunnies on Okunoshima island were all incredibly cute and getting to interact with them, as well as have the assistance of Isabella to take many photos of me with them, and to talk about the islands history and purpose made it all the more better. Would definitely recommend this tour! it’s a lovely break away from the hustle and bustle of the city and you get a solid history lesson and some cute animals out of it! thank you again, Isabella!
