Fantastic Tour of Miyajima Island - Our private custom tour to Miyajima Island (Itsukushima) with our wonderful guide Yuka was terrific from beginning to end! After we'd booked the tour in advance, Yuka made immediate contact with us to discuss tailoring the tour to our wishes. During that time, we decided that we could easily visit the Peace Memorial Park and Atomic Bomb Dome in Hiroshima on our own, but that Yuka would guide us on Miyajima Island, including the ascent up Mt. Misen. She arranged the tickets in advance for us to take the ferry from Peace Memorial Park to Miyajima, as well as picking up the bento box lunches that we enjoyed during our lunch break at the summit of Mt. Misen. Yuka's ability to converse fluently in both Japanese and English helped to set things up smoothly before and during the tour, and she expertly gave commentary and insight into the points of interest along the way. We also asked numerous questions during the tour, to which she was able to provide further answers and information. The ferry ride to Miyajima was smooth and enjoyable, taking us past interesting sights and many of the oyster farms floating in the sea around Hiroshima. Miyajima Island is beautiful and well worth (at least) a day trip and tour, with the lively and colourful market street (Omote-sando) filled with interesting shops and eateries, the beautiful shrines, Torii gates, halls and temples, and of course the gorgeous island scenery along the hike plus the amazing views from the top of Mt. Misen. The hike up Mt. Misen can be eased by taking the ropeway partway up (roundtrip), though the rest of the hike will still test your knees, ankles and feet. However, the vistas from the top are well worth the effort! All in all, a very enjoyable and memorable tour, enhanced greatly by Yuka's personable and friendly help and guidance. Highly recommended!

A tour with a great message - Very unique customized tour with an awesome lunch we would not have been able to have without Eri - booking and organizing and helping us order. We went to Miyajima island first and got to see the beautiful shrine, with a lot of detail from Eri and info about customs and history. The we took the jet boat to peace park and had a great lunch and customized walk through park. Eri went over and above by ensuring we were able to continue our visit to the park after the tour has ended, allowing us to see everything even with three small children. Highly recommended tour! The museum and crane were must sees. We appreciate the consistent message that a world of peace is needed.

Great experience with a great guide - Had a wonderful day with Naoya exploring Hiroshima and Miyajima Island. It took so much stress off having a knowledgeable local to get you around and provide information on each area. We had an unforgettable lunch at a restaurant in Miyajima with the largest oysters I have ever seen. A really great day for our family.

Great day with Yoshi in Hiroshima/Miyajima! - We had a wonderful day with Toshi in Hiroshima and Miyajima. In the morning, he shared his mother’s experience during the bombing of Hiroshima and expertly guided us through the museum sharing the highlights. After, we headed to the Miyajima ferry. Toshi navigated us through the crowds taking us to many interesting places on the island. We finished with a delicious lunch at a restaurant of his choice. Without his expertise, we would have never seen all that we did. It was a busy day but super enjoyable.

Guided walking tour-of Hiroshima ,with Riona. - We had an exceptional tour with Riona, who guided us through Hiroshima with warmth, insight, and genuine passion for her city. She expertly balanced iconic sites,such as the Peace Memorial Park, the Atomic Bomb Dome, and Shukkeien Garden,with hidden local gems we would never have found on our own. Her knowledge of Hiroshima’s history and culture was outstanding, and her calm, friendly manner made the entire experience unforgettable. Our visit to Miyajima and Itsukushima Shrine was a true highlight. We highly recommend a tour with Riona to anyone wanting a meaningful, enriching, and beautifully ,relaxed guided introduction to Hiroshima. Thank you Riona - Katherine & Roddy

MUST DO This! Price and value is excellent! - Our tour with Yukari a local Japanese and English speaker was wonderful! She ensured we understood the train system to meet her at the designated train station before we arrived and communicated with us before hand. She then shepherded us the entire 7 hours we were together. Her knowledge and experience were invaluable and going to Miyajima Island first to beat the crowds and then Hiroshima Peace Memorial later was very well planned. We loved the whole day, her insight and deep understanding of everything was evident. She took pictures for us, gave us history and context of the reverberations of the atomic bomb on the entire country and how important peace in our world truly is. We enjoyed a local lunch with a delicious meal called Okonomiyaki at a reasonable price!
