“AMAZING!!”

We give Tatsuya an 11 out of 10! We had the most fantastic day! He immersed us Hiroshima history and culture with a very personal feel. The adventure to Miyajima was also wonderful. It was great having a day when we didn't have to think about how to get from A to B! Tatsuya did all the work for us! 11/10!

“Amazing guide!!”

Not only did he show us around the city and the island, but he also transmitted the culture and the feeling from Hiroshima. He is the go to person if you want to see Mijayija and the Hiroshima landmarks in one day, allowing you to just focus on enjoying and not on organizational logistics. On top of this, he was super fun and he provided great recommendations. We had lunch with him and tried the amazing Okonomiyaki! Thank you so much Tatsuya, we had an amazing day with you!!

“Excellent tour of Hiroshima and Miyajima ”

Before booking a tour with Tatsuya I knew that there were three things our family of four wanted to experience: the Peace Park, Miyajima, and an Okonomiyaki lunch. Our tour included all of these, and Tatsuya made them all easier and much more enjoyable. He added context to the museum exhibits that we otherwise would have missed, helped me with stress-free transportation (including fixing a glitch with my Suica card), and taking us to an excellent lunch spot. He was extremely organized throughout the process, flexible with the plans, and a pleasant and enjoyable person to spend the day with.

“The best of the best!! ”

I’m a very well travelled individual , but I sought out a guide to Hiroshima /Miyajima because I wanted to get context and real stories about Hiroshima , and make it more meaningful . I didn’t want to join a group tour because my husband doesn’t like to be rushed . He likes to read everything and tends to be left behind . I needed someone who will keep us on track so we can see Miyajima , but also flexible . It was the best decision ! We had the most magical day . Tatsuya asked us if we wanted to change the day because it was going to rain on our original day . He was so thoughtful and knowledgeable with the history of Miyajima and Hiroshima . He also eased the stress of navigating the place , and took us to one of the best meals ever! We ended our day with the calming Miyajima island . And he got us back in time to our train station . We have gained a lifelong friend !

“Great experience with Tatsuya”

It was a wonderful experience with Tatsuya on the Hiroshima day tour. He was in regular touch ever since we booked him and made sure that everything went as planned. He was there to pick us up right on time and had even bought the tickets to the Peace Memorial in advance to save time in the rush hour. He is quite knowledgeable and pleasant to talk to. Even took us for a local delicacy for lunch. My teenage son and I thoroughly enjoyed the day with him. Will definitely recommend him in Hiroshima!

“A Perfect Day ”

Wow! Where to start? Tatsuya provided us with the most remarkable experience as we toured Hiroshima and Miyajima Island. His pre-tour communication provided us with the easiest of rendezvouses. His command of the English language was so good that there was never a moment when anything was lost in translation. He timed all the transfer links to perfection to ensure we saw everything we wanted to see at a leisurely pace whilst ensuring we returned to our cruise ship in a timely manner. Tatsuya is a really interesting, worldly young man, capable of answering all the questions we threw at him.whether they were about the history, politics, culture or geography of the area. We have been so lucky to have met him!!!

“Tatsuya”

Excellent guide very knowledgeable. Started the morning with a trip to Miyajima Island. Great to have a guide that not only knew the way but also the shortcuts and where all the lifts were. Then onto the Peace Park, memorial and the War Museum. Tatsuya made the walk through the museum that much more interesting as his knowledge of the photos and artefacts was excellent. Confronting and respectfully done, a must see to remind everyone of the destructiveness of nuclear weapons. Finished with a okonomiyaki a local savoury pancake in a restaurant we would never have found on our own. Highly recommend Tatsuya as a guide.

“Tour in Hiroshima ”

Thank you so much Tatsuya for the amazing tour in Hiroshima. Tatsuya is very nice and smart! He provides information not only about history but also about life in Japan, which is quite interesting. His storytelling made the history come alive, and his insights into Japanese culture added so much depth to the experience. I truly appreciated his warmth, patience, and the thoughtful way he answered all our questions. Also thank you so much for the gifts. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Hiroshima!

“Walking tour of Hiroshima & Miyajima Island”

My wife and I enjoyed Tatsuya-san’s tour very much. He took very good care of us. Before the start of the tour, he asked a few questions about our means of transportation, preferences, etc, and he fine-tuned the itinerary, making the best use of our circumstances. Eg, we were travelling with the JR Sanin Pass and he used the best route to maximise the pass, the time of the tide for the best view of the Torii, the fastest route to board the ferry and exit the train stations. His explanation of the history of Miyajima and the events leading to and the aftermath of the Hiroshima bombing was very informative. I would recommend his tour.

Tatsuya was a great guide, Everything was very organised, depending on the high tide in order to see the Torii in the water. Lunch in a traditional place, and on request he found the best espresso coffe in Japan! The Hiroshima museum was packed but he helped us a lot pointing out the most interesting things. Highly recommended.

“Tatsuya is outstanding as a guide!”

We booked our tour with Tatsuya several months before our arrival in Japan. From the beginning he was in full contact with us and kept us fully informed of his plans for our tour. He was punctual on the day if our tour and led us from location to location with confidence and all the while providing incredible details of what we were seeing. His knowledge of the area and managing crowds were second to none. We have taken many guided tours and this rates near or at the top. His gifts at the end of the tour were a classy touch to an exceptional day. Cannot recommend highly enough!

“Tatsuya. Our amazing Hiroshima guide”

Tatsuya was so amazing. I'm going to recommend him to all our friends in New York. He keeps in touch from the minute you arrive in Japan and then till u make it to Hiroshima. He's an educated young man who has seen and worked in so many different countries. It's an amazing experience spending time with him. He' has a great command of English. He also knows French and Spanish and has worked all over the world. He's punctual, helpful and courteous. He met us @ the Hiroshima Station and dropped us back on our platform after to go back to Kyoto. He had all the tickets etc all ready for our tour which lasted nearly 6 hours. He knew exactly where the entrances and exits were to avoid the many tourists that visit this place. He shared a local lemon sweet in a box with us which I thought was such a nice gesture; and as parting gift offered us the whole box. I would highly recommend him. A great find that we hope to share. with our friends. We wish him all the best always

We had such a wonderful time on our tour of Hiroshima and Miyajima Island with Tatsuya. He guided us through each site so seamlessly, making the day stress-free, insightful, and deeply meaningful. His knowledge and storytelling brought the history of the area to life, and we learned so much more than we would have on our own. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting the area!

“Fantastic day out”

The best day we’ve had in our 3week stay in Japan! We had been anticipating our visit to Hiroshima and today we were not disappointed. We were very fortunate to have had Tatsuya as our guide. He was so knowledgeable, informative, organised, considerate of our wishes and a thorough gentleman. As far as guides go on our numerous travels around the world in our retirement, he will go down as one of, if not the best guide we have had. He rearranged the daily schedule to avoid the crowds on Miyajima so we went there first, and spent a few hours on the beautiful island. He knew the best place for Okonomiyaki lunch away from the hustle and bustle of the main streets of Miyajimacuchi. We then visited the Atomic bomb precinct - the Genbaku A-Bomb dome, the Peace Memorial park and the Memorial museum in the afternoon. We are really glad that we chose to go with Freetour and would unreservedly recommend them.

“Tatsuya is a great guide”

Tatsuya is a great guide that really knows everything about Hiroshima and is prepared to answer any question. The tour is very nice but also very sad as most of you can imagine. The pictures that you will see at the last stop are so disturbing. I would recomend this tour as it is filled with information and Tatsuya knows how to take you to those time periods when presenting them

“Awesome and very informative tour of Hiroshima”

Tatsuya is an incredibly wonderful guide. He is so knowledgeable about Hiroshima and i like that he linked his families stories about what occurred during the war. He made the day so incredibly easy for us by picking us up from our hotel. The tour was so organized and having Tatsuya's insight while touring the museum made the experience so much more meaningful though incredibly sad and emotional. Tatsuya picked a wonderful spot right by the ferry with nice views to try Okonomiyaki and guided us through the ordering process. We enjoyed the time on Miyakama Island and the explanations of the founding of the temple. and of course the deer were pretty cute. We really appreciated the fact that when we returned he assisted us with purchasing our tickets for Kyoto and gave us helpful advice on where to get the types of souvenirs I wanted to get for my family. At the end he even presented us with gifts which we really appreciated. I would definitely recommend this trip when you are in Hiroshima and Tatsuya as a truly gifted tour guide.

“ Hiroshima and Mi ”

Tatsuya is really a wonderful guide. He is knowledgeable, engaging and dependable. From the start he communicated regularly and sent a clear itinerary of what we would be seeing. He was also open to any changes or suggestions. He showed us the highlights of Hiroshima and we visited Mijyama. We would never have been able to experience Hiroshima in such an enjoyable and meaningful way if we did not have him guide us. We thank him for a memorable visit and for an amazing day and for his kindness.

“Tatsuya was full of knowledge and enthusiasm”

The tour was tiring, however we were given great insights into the Atomic Bomb event and the human stories that surrounded it. Getting around was also made easy since Tatsuya knew the relevant buses and trains to catch. We had a great lunch of Okonomyaki, one of our tour "must dos", and then an informative tour of Mijyama island. As we walked from place to place, we were able to have great conversations, which all added up to a great tour. As another matter, he suggested that we start a bit earlier to avoid the crowds. This was very effective, as we saw a lot of crowds just starting on the things we had finished.

Tatsuya was very communicative even before we arrived in Japan and he made a detailed list of all the expenses. On the day, he was already waiting for us when we got off the Shinkansen. He is very knowledgeable and adaptable to the needs of the group. I think as a family the day we went to Hiroshima and Miyajima was the best experience we had. Greatly recommended!

“Simply THE BEST”

Tatsuya wasn't just a tour guide, it was like hanging around with a friend how is telling the history of the city. As he is a well-travelled person, he is able to discuss many topics and make parallels with the Japanese culture. His tour was very insightful and perceptive. At the end, we even felt ashamed by how much we tipped him. He sure deserved much more. It a long tour and it is extremely worth it. It will definitely go beyond your expectations

“Unforgettable tour of Hiroshima and Miyajima ”

We had the pleasure of joining Tatsuya's tour around Hiroshima and Miyajima, and it was an absolutely incredible experience! Tatsuya’s deep knowledge of history and culture brought every site to life, from the moving stories of Hiroshima to the serene beauty of the Shrines and Temples. He also introduced us to the delicious local specialty, Okonomiyaki, adding a fun culinary touch to the day. Tatsuya’s kindness and thoughtfulness left a lasting impression, making this tour one of the highlights of our trip to Japan. We wholeheartedly recommend Tatsuya’s tour to anyone planning to visit Japan. His passion and dedication make this experience unforgettable.

“Must-Do Tour ”

It is difficult to put into words how incredible of a tour this is, largely due to the guide, Tats. Echoing many of the other reviews -- by the end of the tour (or even just midway through) Tats felt like a friend we hadn't seen in awhile, rather than a tour guide we had met just hours ago. He spent the entire day with us, was flexible on timing and content to meet our desires and timing constraints, and provided invaluable insights all the while. Everyone in our group hopes to see Tats again one way or another. Most of my group figured that they would do the first half of the tour but be "toured" out by the time we got to Miyajima, and I was going to do the second half on my own. However, by the time we got to Miyajima everyone was excited to keep hanging out with Tats.

Simply one of the best tours ever. Great insight. Amazing company. Tatsuya was like a friend more than a guide and we will remember the experience forever. He will do what you want to do but still suggest hidden places that we would never have found without him. I can't put into words his generosity and kindness heartedness as well as being a very knowledgeable and organised guide. Thanks so much

“A must do destination! With a great local guide!”

Tatsuya is hands down the most professional and knowledgable guide you could’ve ever find in Hiroshima and Miyajima Island. Not only was he always doing great follow-ups and providing tips even days before our tour, but he is also extremely smart and well informed; with a deep understanding of anything your could ask him regarding Japan… culture, history, food, geopolitics, faiths, trends, places, people… simply impressive! He made the hours long tour feel like minutes, we enjoyed every moment in awe thanks to his marvelous storytelling skills; the astonishing places we visited were adorned by all the facts, figures, stories and rich details he shared with us nonstop. If you enjoy an immersive experience, history, food and learning from foreign cultures you will love this tour and Tatsuya! Extra points for surprising us with some Spanish and even throwing in some Mexican slang! TL;DR… you can’t miss this tour!

“Amazing Local Guide”

Tatsuya was incredible from our first contact with him. He was organized, prompt and described in detail what we would be doing, entrance fees and the time involved. He answered all of our questions and picked us up on time and spent an entire day with us. He is so knowledgeable about the area and directed us to the best entrances and temples throughout the day to beat the crowds. We had been having trouble finding food that we could eat because we are vegetarians, but he took us to a local restaurant and had the cook make us a delicious meal that was the best food we had eaten since our arrival in Japan. We found out at the beginning of the tour that he is also a sushi chef. I wish we had known sooner because we would have hired him to teach us how to make sushi. Don't miss touring Hiroshima and the island with Tatsuya. You won't regret it!

“6 friends traveling ”

This was such a great tour. From the beginning to the end of our tour we received nothing but excellent service. I can’t say anything but good things of our tour guide Tatsuya. Tatsuya communicates with us on what’s up from the day the tour was confirmed. He send us the tour itinerary and asked if there was anything we wanted to add or change. We left it as is and we had such a great time. Tatsuya was very knowledgeable of all the sites we visited, he gave us facts and history which was great. This was our first time visiting Japan and we loved it. A lot of walking which he told us about and very busy schedule if you want to visit all the main historic locations. Lunch was great we went to a little restaurant where we all sat together and our tour guide explained how to order and asked if we had any allergies. We had such a great time that we have recommend a few of our friends to him. The highlight was the island it was just beautiful and Tasuya knew all the picture perfect spots. He is a local of Hiroshima, he advised how to get there and how much we needed to add on our sucia card to complete the tour. This tour is a must, he was patient, knowledgeable and very down to earth. Never felt rushed or pressured. Thanks Tatsuya for the great experience.

“A tour that you cannot miss!”

I had the pleasure of spending an entire day with Tatsuya as our guide, and it was an incredible experience! His explanations at the Peace Museum were not only thorough and engaging but also deeply personal, as his grandfather is a survivor. This added a unique and heartfelt perspective to the visit. Afterward, Tatsuya took us to Miyajima, where he introduced us to some amazing hidden gems that we wouldn’t have found on our own. His knowledge of the area and his warm, friendly demeanor made the day truly unforgettable. If you’re considering a tour, we wholeheartedly recommend Tatsuya. You won’t regret it!

“Amazing day”

Tatsuya was great! He asked me what I wanted to visit as soon as I booked so that we could cover all the sites during the visit. He was very organised and knew the best entrances and exits to ensure we would not end up waiting for transfers, to get the perfect IG shot and view. There are lots lots of tourists so that was extremely helpful. Impeccable organisation! We did Miyajima via cable car, then hike to the fire and the top (30mins), and then we visited the museum in Hiroshima and the main hisotric sites. Throughout the day he gave us lot of explanation on the history and culture of Japan. Lunch was okonomiyaki...amazing! He also gave some tips to other tourists we encountered during the day! Would recommend doing the tour to everyone.

“Hiroshima and Miyajima ”

Tstsuya is an excellent guide. Very knowledgeable, kind and smart. He took care of my needs since I do not walk stairs that well and he knew how to get me around that. We were on busses, streetcars, trains and ferry to Miyajima Island. We had a total of 7 hours with him and it went by fast. We were a group of 4 over 65 years old and we would book him again.

“Memorable day in Hiroshima”

Tatsuya was excellent! He went above and beyond to anticipate our needs with our arrival on the Shinkansen as well as confirming details with Yamato knowing we wanted to deliver our luggage upon arrival. As for the tour he knew it was going to be busy and he somehow arranged everything so that we didn’t stand in a single line! On top of that he is a history buff and a local so having someone who is knowledgable who can provide the cultural context for our various stops was invaluable. If you’re looking for a tour in Hiroshima look no further!

“Tatsuya enriched my experience in Japan”

I was lucky to spend a day with Tatsuya by myself. I arrived in Japan with some knowledge about the Shinto and Buddhist religions and WW2. Tatsuya really added context to my knowledge. He grew up in Hiroshima and provided a unique perspective about its history, lifestyle, and current developments. He’s a very nice guy; I enjoyed his company and I hope you get a chance to do the same. Book early though.

We had a great time with Tatsuya, who spent the entire day with us and showed us around Miyajima Island and Hiroshima most characteristic places. His explanations were very clear and complete, we found out a lot of things we didn’t know about temples, cities, shrines and history as well. We had lunch in a very nice place, chosen by him. He is very kind and talkative, so it was a pleasure to spend our time with him. Highly suggested tour and guide! Thank you for everything.

Tatsuya has been an amazing guide! If you're gonna be only one day in Hiroshima this is your tour, in 5 hours you can see the highlights of the city and the explanations of Tatsuya make it even better. He will make you feel as you are in a day trip with friends, walking and chatting about Hiroshima, Japan and whatever you would like to talk about. It is definitely a must do it!

We are two 31 y/o Canadians and we had an excellent day with Tatsuya as our guide. He is very friendly and knowledgeable of the history of Hiroshima and Miyajima Island.
