“Great tour by Waleed, really insightful!”
We went to Peace Memorial Park in the morning, which gave us a good starting point for our museum visit later that afternoon. Waleed was very knowledgeable and open to questions. He combined the history with the different places and their significance, and told us stories of people defining Hiroshima’s view on peace in the past and the present. Definitely recommend!

We had a fantastic experience on the Free Walking Tour in Hiroshima with Waleed! He was incredibly friendly, knowledgeable, and passionate about the city's history. He not only shared detailed and insightful information about the historical sites, but also took us to some hidden spots we never would have found on our own. His storytelling was engaging and thoughtful, and we truly felt we learned a lot. We highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Hiroshima — and especially Waleed as a guide.

“Highly recommend ”
Took a tour to Hiroshima Bomb Dome with Waleed Ahmed—super moving! The Dome’s history hits hard, and Waleed was knowledgable, tho a bit fast-talking. Well-organized, but meeting point was tricky to find. Def recommend.
