We were guided around each spot, listening to the story of how the city of Hiroshima was born, experienced the atomic bomb, and was rebuilt to its present state. The stories were so captivating that I felt as if I was there at the time. I don't think you can have this experience by simply receiving an explanation or introduction to the spots. We also shared many other little tidbits about Hiroshima, so this tour is recommended for tourists as well as people who live in Hiroshima. I'm sure you'll love Hiroshima even more after the guide finishes.

Our bike tour through Hiroshima was most of all emotionally touching. Moe not only showed us the tragic but also the hopeful and inspirational side of Hiroshima and there was more than one moment where we had tears in our eyes. We went to the Peace Museum before (which is also an absolute recommendation) but this tour connects the story to the city and it was a one-of-a-kind experience. Totally recommend and Moe is a darling :)

We had the most AMAZING tour so far. Moei our guide was a local who spoke great English. Her knowledge, understanding and emotional information made it very very special. What a wonderful and inspiring place Hiroshima is. Thankyou.

We really enjoyed our cycling tour, led by Shin. We started our ride visiting Mitaki-dera Temple - I will always remember the serenity and beauty of the property. Then we cycled more in Hiroshima proper, where Shin shared his family's experience with the A-bomb, and showed us Peace Park and the A-bomb dome. A highlight of the morning was hearing his stories passed along from his grandparents. We also stopped to enjoy a delicious lunch of okonomiyaki, a local favorite. Overall, it was a perfect morning in Hiroshima.

Excellent way of seeing the city. Our guide Bella was very informative and very personable which made the whole experience memorable. This was better than some of the organised tours offered by the cruise ship.

Incredible bike tour!!! Our tour guide, Bella, was so kind and thoughtful. She knew so much about the history of the atomic bomb and Japan and answered our endless questions with immense patience. I cannot recommend this bike tour enough. There is simply no better way to learn about the history than from local. Thank you- Bella!

My family of 4 were treated to a personal tour by Shin, who has the best British-Japanese accent you will ever hear and a deep knowledge of the bomb event, told from his own family's perspective. Be ready to laugh, shed a tear or two and be thoroughly entertained for over 2 hours. Just brilliant!

Our tour guide, Moe is a granddaughter of some of the A-bomb survivors. Their testimonies of that day spoken through the story telling of Moe is absolutely heart wrenching to hear both the pain and enlightenment of forgiveness in her voice and passion to share their narratives. Highly recommend 10/10.

It was a moving tour, imagining how the citizens of Hiroshima moved forward immediately after the atomic bombing. They were always looking ahead to the future. However, the injustice of having their peaceful daily lives taken away feels even more intense now, when war is raging all over the country.
