Excellent tour. Our guide, Tomoyuki, was very fun and pleasant. We really enjoyed our time with him. He did everything we wanted at our pace. Miyajima was beautiful and a highlight was the Miyajima Ropeway. I liked that we didn’t feel rushed and have to hurry along. Tomoyuki spoke very good English so communication was no problem and it was fun talking with him. Great day, highly recommended!
