A local view of the city - A super fun way to explore Hiroshima as a local would. I really felt a more in depth experience outside of being a tourist. Christi was amazing and had so much knowledge about all of the beautiful sights. Great and easy communication. Highly recommend making this a to-do on your trip!

Fun way to explore Hiroshima! - Such a fun way to explore a new area! From our meeting point, Christi seamlessly led us to Hijiyama Park, stopping at landmarks along the way to chat about Hiroshima’s rich history and culture. The park is beautiful, the route was well planned with a good pace, and the guide so lovely! It was such a fun morning out and would highly recommend it to anyone looking to see a little more of Hiroshima.

Great running tour! - It was a pleasure to do this running tour of Hijiyima Park, Christi was very welcoming from the start! The meeting point was handy near the train station and the route was well planned to the park. Once we were in the park Christi had a good knowledge of all the sights we visited. The run was just at the right pace too, great to workout and learn about the history of Hiroshima at the same time!

Running with a local! - Was such a lovely tour with Christy. I learnt some amazing history about Hijijama park, with beautiful views and nature. Lots of great local tips, as Christy has lived in Japan for 7 years! Running was a beginners level and she made sure we had some stops along the way. Would recommend as a nice way to start your morning in Hiroshima 😊
