Awesome adventure with Yuta! - Yuta was an AMAZING guide. We truly enjoyed every moment with him. He was able to maintain a great balance between sharing interesting and relevant information yet not overwhelming us with too much detail or distraction. He listened to our needs and was always thoughtful and supportive. Spending the day with him felt more like visiting a friend and getting a tour. Well organized and timely too. We loved our time with Yuta!

A Hiroshima Experience to Remember - Yuta was a terrific guide! He knew exactly where to take us in Miyajima Island. Although it was very crowded for the new year, he knew the quiet streets to get to the shrine. Afterwards, we headed to the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum and Park. Very moving experience. Yuta was an especially big hit with my 13 year-old son; Yuta had a way of engaging him to the tour that was very special!! Yuta's English is exceptional, and he was a delight!!

Fantastic experience in Hiroshima! - The private tour was amazing! Definitely a five-star! Not only for the visits to the A-bomb memorial and Miyajima, but also for Yuta-san (the tour guide). The places are amazingly beautiful, informative and full of history, and Yuta-san made us feel very comfortable during the entire experience. He was very flexible in meeting us at our hotel, gave us many information not only from Hiroshima, but from Japan in general, and took great photos along the way. We highly recommend it!

a must visit place to see! - Everything was very memorable from meeting Yuta, our tour guide to walking around the city and island, eating lunch, shopping, going with a ferry, visiting places and taking public transportations. Amazing experience and pleasant time to have! We were blessed to have Yuta.

Best Part of Japan: Miyajima with Yuta! - Hiroshima and Miyajima are the highlights of our Japan vacation because of Yuta, our guide, who is amazing! Wish we could travel throughout Japan with him. He is friendly, positive and so knowledgeable, everything you hope a guide will be and more. He brought us to places we would have never seen nor discovered with someone else. We just wish we were staying in the area longer to be able to have Yuta show us more.

Fantastic Tour, A1 guide. Amazing - We had a great tour with Yuta, he's a fantastic guide and great to be around to chat to, he was like an old friend by the end of our day with him. I highly recommend Yuta for this and other tours/guided visits due to his fantastic personality, warm and personable and he didn't seem to run off of a script and was willing to deviate from the itinerary if needed (there was no rushing around either). His English is great and he was willing to explain and discuss life in Japan away from the tour subject. I hope that one day we have the pleasure of meeting up with him again. Final thoughts. Thoroughly recommend Yuta, he is a decent and friendly person and wonderful guide. You won't regret selecting Yuta.
