Reviews
Stephanie was a wonderful tour guide with so much knowledge and attention to detail. Very attentive and the tea ceremony was a nice way to celebrate reaching the top of the hill after so many steps. highly recommend this trip.
I had a lovely morning hike with Nana, she was very knowledgeable about the destinations we visited, passionate about it's history, and the spot to have the tea ceremony was beautiful looking down over Hiroshima. highly recommend.
