Easy bike ride around Hiroshima to see the sites. Our guide, James, was very informative about the history of the area. He was a wonderful tour guide. He was very knowledgeable and we learned a lot from him.
Gentle ride around Hiroshima with a born & bred local, offering personal experiences and insights. Miyu was a great host and well-informed.
Our tour guide Alex was awesome. We got to see the main attractions in Hiroshima and covered so much ground in a short period of time. Highly highly recommend...
Awais was extremely knowledgeable and was able to clearly answer any questions our group had. He was a great communicator and held the perfect pace for the tour. He checked in with how each person in the group was feeling throughout the tour. Cycling was a very engaging way to experience Hiroshima.
Awais was a great guide who helped us navigate the humid and hot weather with a smile! Recommend for others to do this tour as you cover a lot of ground and learn more about the history of Hiroshima.
Did the Cycle Hiroshima bike tour and it was a highlight of my time in Japan. Our guide James was an absolute stud of knowledge, and our group soaked it up like sponges. If you like bike tours, look no further. This is the one to book.
Easy to recommend. Thanks for a great morning.
Aimee was great!! She got us situated on our bikes and got us safely from place to place. She was well informed on the sites we saw. She even provided great advice on shopping after the tour. Aimee is very personable and has a great sense of humor.
This was a bike tour which enabled us to see quite a lot of the sites within Hiroshima more efficiently than if we had to walk. The cycling was at a modest pace and there was not a high degree of difficulty. (it should be noted, we were not on e-bikes).
Many of the sites we saw were very sobering. Our tour included a stop at an incredible "french" style bakery which hit the spot for us7 as Westerners craving some familiar baked goods. Our guide Aimee-Linh was terrific, energetic and knowledgeable.
The bikes are great, very light and comfortable. Our guide was MeYu. She was a gorgeous soul, absolutely wonderful stories that related to her family as she is Hiroshima born and has 3 generations of family living here. We loved our day
Very informative bike tour with many historic stops. Miyu was a great guide and is passionate about sharing the history of these historic areas.
The tour guide was a young foreign student who was doing this on the side for some extra money. She wasn't enthusiastic and showcased knowledge that we could have easily googled. We did not appreciate this tour company not having local guides.
Miyu gave my wife and I an excellent bike tour of Hiroshima. Her English language skills and knowledge of history are outstanding. Since she and her family are from the area, she was able to discuss some of her family history as well. We really enjoyed the tour and would highly recommend it!
Probably the best tour that we've had in Japan. Aimée and Patrick are not just amazing guides but also great people that we've enjoyed spending a day with. Biking around Hiroshima really is a great way to get to know the city, we've learned a lot of new stuff, saw a variety of places - honestly, it was unforgettable. Thank you, Aimée and Patrick, for making our trip just so much better. Don't hesitate if you're thinking of booking this adventure, it's so worth it! Also, cheers to the lovely New Zealand guys and girls that we've shared this experience with!
The Hiroshima bike tour is unlike anything else. Pedaling through the city, you move between modern, vibrant neighborhoods and deeply moving historical sites. Seeing the Peace Memorial Park and the A-Bomb Dome up close, gives you a connection to the history that no bus tour or guidebook can replicate.
Our guide wove together the city’s past and present beautifully, and by the end, you’re left with something that stays with you long after the ride is over — a quiet but powerful reminder of why peace matters and why it’s worth protecting.
If you’re visiting Hiroshima, don’t skip this.
Best experience, and well worth it. Levi was very knowledgeable on the history of Hiroshima. Would highly recommend.
Great way to visit some of the more popular sites and to get a bit of fresh air. Tour guide Aimee was very knowledgeable
Aimee was our tour guide today, she was amazing so full of knowledge and easily adapted to all our group needs. We even stopped for an extra musket firing demonstration that we came across. Nothing was too much trouble for her and it was one of the best tour experiences that I have ever had. I would highly recommend her and the company it was totally worth it.
1000% recommend this tour! Levi was the ultimate guide! He took great care to educate our group prior to departing so that each stop had a greater significance than if we would have just arrived at them. His presentation style was very interactive, keeping all of us involved and focused. We walked away remembering so much of the tour and all that was discussed which isn’t always the case with tours! The biking was easy enough and we were able to cover a lot of ground. Book this tour!!!
This was a very thorough and interesting way to quickly cover a lot of ground and history in Hiroshima. Would highly recommend.
This was a great way to see Hiroshima. Ihsan was a great guide- so knowledgeable and personable. 10/10 would recommend as a fun way to see a city with a lot of history.
Ihsan started our tour by taking us through the city. We covered so much ground in our short 4 hours, we were very satisfied with our time. There was not a question he could not answer, although we tried hahaha. Overall left with more knowledge and appreciation for Hiroshima and Japan as a whole. Thank you Ihsan, we wil definitely find you when we come back!
This tour is a great way to see Hiroshima, especially if you’re only there for a day or two. The guide was very knowledgeable and took us to places that didn’t come up in my research. Thank you Awais for taking us on an amazing tour or Hiroshima!
Tour was a balance view of history. More sites covered on tour by bike and great exercise and fresh air.
Not a lot of biking, but our guide, Issan, had a lot of stories/ facts about Hiroshima. We had perfect weather so that's also nice.
Fantastic bike tour. Our guide, Awais, was so informative and very knowledgable on Japanese history. The bikes were in good condition and the tour went at a steady but not rushed pace.
James was a great guide, very professional, well informed, friendly and made sure everyone was looked after. We enjoyed cycling around the city, visiting a beautiful park and learning about the tragic events that happened 80 years ago. My teenage sons were also very engaged. Highly recommend!
We had the most amazing experience with tour guide, Melissa. She was knowledgeable, smart, energetic and so much fun. She truly made this cycling tour a great experience for our family of four. So much rich history and traditions to learn about and culture to enjoy. Thank you Melissa and team! Until next time!!
Really good tour, nice pace and well informed engaging guide in Melissa. Beautiful city. Obviously very thought provoking especially round Peace Park.
This tour is excellent. The tour guide was friendly and said the truth.
My review is delayed but I'll be joining him again this month.
James, our guide for the day was excellent. From the beginning I new I was with someone I could trust. We tested the bikes, had 2 bottles of cold water and helmets. James also explained his hand signals so that our small group of riders new what to do. The terrain is mostly flat but there was an option to upgrade to electric.. Throughout the tour James kept everyone informed of the history behind not only the atomic bomb but the local history. I have never come across a guide with such knowledge and enthusiasm and I learnt so much from him. How good was he, unbelievable, because we were delayed through no fault of his own during the ride that meant I would be possibly missing my Bullet Train back to Tokyo. At the end of the trip he took me in his car to my hotel and then the station. He had the knowledge but also a heart of gold.
