Real experiences from real travelers
The bullet train ride was seamless and fast. Hiroshima was deeply moving, and our guide Ken made the history come alive without being too heavy. Miyajima was magical at sunset!
Worth every penny. The logistics of getting from Tokyo to Hiroshima can be tricky, but this tour handled everything. The hotel in Hiroshima was central and comfortable.
A lot of walking, but absolutely beautiful. The floating shrine is a must-see. I wish we had more time for shopping in Hondori, but the itinerary was packed with great sights.
Even as a local, I learned so much. The private guide option is highly recommended for a deeper understanding of the Peace Park's history.
The Shinkansen tickets were delivered to our hotel in Tokyo which was very convenient. The tour balance between history and nature was perfect.
