Our guide Kaku was amazing. He took us to the local hotspots that tend to not where the tourists go including this incredible curry restaurant. Both my partner and myself don't like curry all the much but decided to give it a try as it had been a while and walked away from the meal being easily one of the best meals we had. He was very knowledge and easy to talk too.

We did a hidden gems tour of Hiroshima on our last full day and it the perfect way to end our first trip to Japan. Our guide Kaku showed us some of the local hotspots and great advice on where we should have our last dinner. Highly recommend!

We enjoyed being taken to the lesser known areas of hiroshima as it meant we learnt a bit more history like we wanted and the lesser known stores. We wanted an offset spatula for our butter knife at home and Kaku took us to a knife store that had one. Awesome service. Although we typically dont like curry dishes the host recommended a place and lowkey some of best food we ate all trip!

Masa was very knowledgeable and catered our tour perfectly for our family. Not always easy to capture teenage boys attention but she did! We all agreed our time with Masa was a highlight of our trip.

Masa was amazing and catered our tour perfectly. She answered all our questions and was very knowledgeable. She is a warm and generous person and we loved our time with her.

My family and I had the 2-hour walking tour with Ken that focused on the bomb dome and bomb memorial/museum. Ken was very prompt in reaching out over WhatsApp to understand our desires for the tour and schedule the meeting time, place, etc. Ken was also very friendly and met us at the Hiroshima train station to help navigate us to the Bomb Dome and local area. He showed us the location of the hypocenter, a cemetery adjacent to the hypocenter, and walked us from the bomb dome over to the museum. Once in the museum, however, there was little interaction, and we were self-guided for the most part. It was helpful to have Ken purchase trolley and museum tickets for us and then reimburse him. Overall, this tour was not a great value for me. It was helpful to have a guide navigate us from the train station to the bomb dome using the trolley, however, I would have preferred that we meet at the museum or bomb dome and not take 20-30 minutes of our 2-hour tour on a trolley ride where there was no interaction. There were interesting pieces of information, but overall we learned little information beyond what could be learned by browsing through the museum on our own. I think a better itinerary would be 2 hours of touring around Hiroshima and the bomb dome area, and then ending the tour at the museum, with the museum being pretty much self-guided anyway.
