Cva gas been a great guide, with many competencies, passion and able to catch our feelings and emotions. Strongly recommended. Claudia and Carlo
A great tour from Sheraz, well informed and knowledgeable about the events of Hiroshima. This is the perfect, cheaper alternative to cruise ship excursions. You’re guaranteed to learn a lot in a short space of time. Many thanks Sheraz..
Camille was an amazing tourguide, she knew everything about the history of hiroshima and knew an answer to all of our questions. Seeing all the various monuments in person was really impressive, and we learned a lot of new things about the atomic bombing. I would really recommend doing this tour.
Fantastic tour with Aaze - his explanations and guiding handled the horrifying history with care so we heard a full account of Hiroshima’s story but without sensationalising. We particularly appreciated understanding the meaning behind the different features of the peace park before going into the museum (and would recommend doing the tour for that reason) as it gives a context and understanding to everything you then experience in the exhibitions. Thanks Aaze for taking such good care of us all!
Our guide Yehor was very good. He explained the islands history very well that was so easy to understand. Two thumbs up for him. Highly recommended!
The guided tour was very good. Our tour guide Aaze, at the right time, showed us the most important places in the city, and told us the main topics for discussion, so that we could have a clear picture of what happened in Hiroshima. I highly recommend him!
Leo was a very knowledgeable and clear guide, and for us, who took a tour with an 11-year-old child, he was very easy to follow. He took us to all the main stops on the island of Miyajima. We recommend that everyone meet Leo for their tour!
The tour was well organized and the guide, Cva, was excellent. He’s prepared, he efficiently answered to all our questions and his explanations were very clear; moreover while he tells you interesting things about Hiroshima and its tragedy, you can feel his passion for history. I highly recommend this tour for people wanting to know something more about the nuclear disaster of Hiroshima, not limiting to a superficial walk through the Peace Memorial Park.
Very nice tour, informative and full of explanations with Ana. I recommend it.
Camille was excellent! She was very informative and answered any additional questions we had. We would definitely recommend Camille and this tour to anyone visiting Hiroshima!
