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.

Visiting during the Obon Festival, there were an extremely large number of tourists. The exhibition hall was so crowded that it was impossible to see the exhibits, which was a great pity! However, inside the exhibition hall, one could truly feel the horror of nuclear energy in war. I hope for world peace and no more wars.

This should be a tour that every visitor to Japan sees. It was heartwrenchingly sad. The comprehensive information and graphic details were confronting. The presentation was exceptional; it was well laid out and easily followed through the passage of the event. As sad as it was, I would highly recommend it.

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, easy to find in a small area right next to the entrance of Hiroshima Castle, a must-visit spot. 2. The staff are very meticulous in teaching and introducing the archery steps in English, so even those who are not good at sports can enjoy it. 3. Visitors will be given traditional Kyudo attire, and the staff will even use their phones to help you record this precious experience (videos/photos). 4. Finally, you'll receive a commemorative sticker, making for an unforgettable memory. 5. The email response after the experience is also very prompt and thoughtful. In summary, apart from the higher cost and the need for reservations, there are no downsides. It's highly recommended to experience this before visiting Hiroshima Castle.

It's not a full 360-degree view, but you can see all the main sights. There's a spot on the first floor and also upstairs. It's a great place to buy a lemon drink and relax until evening. For the night view, you can go up when the bar is open, but I didn't. It's quite high up, so the breeze was refreshing, but the metal bars make it a bit difficult to take good photos. Still, it's a nice place to relax while looking at Hiroshima city. If you choose the origami option, you can go down one floor to fold a paper crane and drop it, and they'll even take a photo for you if you hand them your phone.

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 👍👍👍

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.

Using the Hiroshima Enjoy Pass this time, the biggest feeling was "convenient and cost-effective." I originally bought it with a try-it-out mentality, but after actually using it, I found that it effectively saved travel expenses whether for sightseeing, shopping discounts, or transportation combinations. From visiting Itsukushima Shrine, strolling through Hiroshima Peace Memorial Park, to buying souvenirs around Hiroshima Station, every use was very smooth, requiring only the presentation of the mobile ticket. For travelers like me who prefer to arrange their own itinerary and don't want to rush, the flexible 7-day usage design is particularly practical. Overall, the Hiroshima Enjoy Pass not only saves travel expenses but also adds a sense of ease and leisure to the trip, making it a practical ticket worth recommending to first-time visitors to Hiroshima.
