Great tour with a great local guide! - Kensuke our guide was very knowledgeable and his English was very good. He gave us plenty of information about the monuments in the Peace Park and had good timing as to how long to take in the museum so we had enough time to get over to Miyajima Island. He organized a great place for lunch too. Overall a great tour without feeling rushed!! Highly recommend!

A beautiful day in Hiroshima - This tour gives you an overview of what hapen in hiroshima during the war, and the amoint of distruction the Nuk-bom caused. It also takes you to a land where you will see beautiful dears "similar to Nara" and a unique shrine. Off-course these type of trips depends on yoir tour guide in explaining and detailing what happens. Our Tourguide "Kensuke Ohguchi" was one of the best tour guide i had, well knowledged, super friendly and kind, and took rally good care of us. And one of the things I mostly enjoyed about this trip is the culture exchange I had with Kensuke between my country and japan I highly recommend this trip

Ken was a real friend and great guide - Ken is the best tour guide! A local who speaks English conversationally. Very knowledgeable and hard working. The first part is a heartfelt and deeply touching tour of Hiroshima's A-bomb sites. The second part, Miyajima island, is an unforgettable experience with nature, history, fortune telling, and excellent food. Ken goes above and beyond for you. Definitely recommend.

Overpriced and poor transport options - Tour locations very good - just travel process very poor and tour very expensive for the experience. Boat to Miyajima was public ferry that was 2 trains away from Museum. Smaller cruise boats depart from just near museum - would have been a much better experience. It would have let us have a longer time at the museum and still got to Miyajima quicker.
