Hiroshima Memorial - Very educational but very sad at the same time. Be prepared to be affected by the material and stories on display. Excellent information from our guide Nao.

Thought provoking and uplifting - Our day in Hiroshima was very enjoyable. We met our lovely and knowledgable tour guide Mayumi who greeted us at the Hiroshima train station. Our family of 5 had a private tour and we added the castle and surrounding market/shrine area to the existing itinerary. There was plenty of walking and the hop on/hop off bus made transit easy. Our tour ended up a 5 hour tour, instead of the proposed 4 hours. We could have spent much longer at the museum/final stop. It was a thought provoking and informative day. Mayumi answered so many questions we had and we will never forget our memorable day. We highly recommend the tour.

Family vacation - Our guide, Mayumi, was very knowledgeable and friendly. Just be prepared to walk a lot, we walked over 9 miles that day, with stops of course to see the sights.

Very educational and moving - This was a very educational tour. Learned a lot about Hiroshima history, especially just before, and after the atom bomb was dropped.

Hiroshima, a must-visit when in Japan. - We booked the 4 hr Hiroshima private tour a month before departure. A week before flying, Mrs. Minami Koh contacted us through Whatsapp. Mrs. Koh wanted to make sure we knew how to get to the meeting point coming from Tokyo. This was very reassuring and we felt we were in great hands. Upon arrival, our guide - Mrs. Sakamoto - was waiting for us at the Bus station. The trip from Tokyo was very easy and we were happy to meet her. Mrs. Sakamoto spoke perfect English and being a local she was able to share in-depth knowledge about Hiroshima's history and traditions. Our tour focused mainly on the Atomic Bomb Dome and the Peace Memorial Park and Museum. But we spent quite a bit of time at the incredibly beautiful Shukkei-en Garden. While traveling from one place to another with Mrs. Sakamoto we couldn't help but notice the beauty all around us and how much Hiroshima has to offer. I wish we had stayed longer... We are grateful Mrs. Sakamoto was very patient with us and shared so much information.

A very informative tour with Ms. Mayu - I was interested mostly in the WW2 history aspect of Hiroshima. I was very fortunate to have had Ms. Mayu as my guide. She is a native of Hiroshima, with excellent English, and she threaded a very nice walk through the main locations relevant to the nuclear bomb drop. In addition to explaining the key monuments and events, I very much appreciated her examples of how it affects life even today in subtle ways.

It was very moving.... - It was very moving. Actually, the most moving part was that our guide’s 95-year-old mother survived the bomb but her mother’s pregnant sister and mother, who were with her, did not. Her mother was trapped under rubble for 14 hours until a passing German priest heard her cries and he dug her out. Being buried is what saved her from the fallout and black rain. When she dies, her name will be placed inside a sarcophagus that’s part of the monument to victims of the A-Bomb.
