Jorge was the highlight - Let’s start with the negatives, we did not get our tickets until 12hours before the bullet train, but that was the only bad thing. Jorge our guide was absolutely amazing, insightful, intelligent and personable. The information he provided for both sites plus life as a Japanese man was very useful, he gave history and then stories on how that history was forged, Ok and for the trip, Miyajima And the floating Tori gate was great, The shrines and temples, and the food all great. Hiroshima and peace park, Jorge had so much historical knowledge and really opened my eyes, Overall for anyone who is interested In Hiroshima book this tour but ask for Jorge.

Fun and informative day - Very long day and lots of walking but a perfect blend of information and free time. Alex was wonderful and so informative about the different places including best restaurants and tourist stuff. Gave good suggestions and gave us the right amount of free time with suggestions of things to do.

Good experience however not worth the price I was charged! - Everything was good the only negative was the price I was charged for 2 people $937 is definitely not worth that much. Not even lunch included. Disappointed in Viator and confused. Be careful when you book!

Acceptable but can improve - I expected a fully English guided tour, but we had a guide who spoke more Portuguese than English. Sometimes, I missed important information because tour was more Portuguese.

Hiroshima and miyajima island with Amigo tour- booked with Viator - I would not recommend this tour or Amigo tours for the people who request English speaking guide as I thought majority of the history- instructions and other small talks were in Spanish. I booked tour with English speaking guide and our guide was explaining in English as well but majority of explaining was in Spanish FIRST as English was used as 2nd language - explanations were very short in English (min or two long only) compared to Spanish. Another drawback of the tour was - even though peace memorial museum admission was not included which we knew and there are long lines to purchase the tickets, separate long lines to go inside the museum. Tickets were sold out by the time we found out and we reached at the museum. I wish we were told in advance about tickets sells out and you can’t get it if you are going in a tour as you have limited time at the site. We are coming as a visitor and will not come back at this site again- I wish we had better experience after spending so much money. Our tour guide Alex tried his best to explain things in English but I wish the guided tour was in English as a primary language instead of Spanish.
