Reviews
“Alan was a very good guide, especially sharing the information at the Peace Memorial Park, where the silence and thoughts of each person seemed to be connected to that terrible moment of August 1945. Miyajima was a wonderful place to visit, full of nature and preserved areas. My lunch there was delicious, as were the other things I had time to taste.”
“My son and I were delighted to take part in this tour. Our tour guide, Alan, took plenty of time with us and explained the individual sights in detail. His empathetic manner made the tour very engaging at every point. We highly recommend this tour to everyone!”
