Hiroshima Private Walk: Peace, History & Resilience

Yuko did a remarkable job telling and showing us the story of Hiroshima. After the tour, she made a reservation for us at her favorite Hiroshima-style okonomiyaki restaurant. Above and beyond! We would take another tour with her again any time!

A great tour with a very informed and interesting guide (Yoshi). Highly recommended. All the main sights were included at a good pace.

We where shown around Hiroshima by the wonderful and lovely Emiko-san, with a focus on the city and the a-bomb (which was our wish, since it was our first time in the city). She had prepared and researched a lot for our tour, based on our general areas of interest that had been communicated with the agency. We were shown the place of the bomb detonation, the museum, the a-dome and the various monuments remembering the world changing events that happened that day (and afterwards), all with thoughtful and insightful explanations from Emiko-san. We finished the day on a lighter note, by visiting one of the most beautiful gardens we’ve seen on our travels in Japan, filled with fish (which we got to feed), breathtaking scenarie and turtles. A wonderful and insightful day that we surely will never forget!

Yuko was so well informed about all the sites we visited as well as about the history and language of Japan. She was the perfect guide. The tour was also well planned, informative and quite moving. I highly recommend it if you are visiting Hiroshima.

We again decided to take a private tour of Hiroshima and this time we had Yuko as our tour guide. Her knowledge was extensive and as a private walking tour she tailored the tour to our needs. Not like large group tours where you come away with very little. I understand that prices might influence a large group versus a small group tour but if really want to come away with a great experience then please pay a little extra. On this tour Yuko demonstrated a extensive level of knowledge and history of the events which made up the new Hiroshima. A great experience, many thanks to Yuko.

An absolutle must if you visit Hiroshima! Out tour guide Nori provided us with a lot of historical information & was able to answer all our questions. It was a delight to have a native person from Hiroshima give us a tour around the museum & surrounding areas.

Our tour of Hiroshima on our cruise stop with Hiroshi was a highlight of our 20 day tour of Japan. He was great about communicating prior to our tour. He went above and beyond to accommodate us. Hiroshi’s English was very good, which was appreciated when hearing details of historical importance. He has a lot of knowledge of the historical sites and learned a lot on our tour. Hiroshi was also very good about prompting to take pictures of us, which was very much appreciated. We plan to do the tour again when we return with our family.

We went on a tour of Hiroshima with Hiroshi towards the end of our 14 day cruise around Japan. It was by far our best tour on our trip and was amazing. Hiroshi was very knowledgeable about the area and we learned a lot from him. He planned an amazing tour! We cannot wait to bring our kids back here and go on another tour with Hiroshi. Thank you Hiroshi!

LISA was a delightful and very informative guide. We had some issues getting to her in time for the tour and she was extremely gracious about the whole episode. It was truly out of our hands, but she was very gracious about it. She had a whole lot of information to share about the Hiroshima bombing the Peace, memorial museum, and the atomic bomb dome. we also were able to visit the Hiroshima castle. She shared a lot of information about all of the sites that we saw. She was very easy to understand and spoke English quite well. We would definitely recommend a tour with LISA to anyone that we know. Thank you again LISA for a wonderful afternoon learning about Hiroshima!

Our day with Rena was perfect!! She is knowledgeable, personable, and just a really nice person! It was such a treat to spend such a day with her!
