This was excellent . An experienced and very well prepared guide - I saw a beautiful part of Japan, learnt so much about the shrine and practices. The tea ceremony (iced matcha on a very hot and humid morning) was perfect. Thank you Naomi.

We would even like to give more stars, Nana and teamaster Lily were wonderful in guiding us and telling Hiroshima stories. They are also very friendly with great personalities, making it a joy to spend time with them while climbing the mountain, using our 5 senses and experience a tea ceremony. As a group of two adults and two teens it can be a challenge to do something everyone enjous, but we unanimously say: best morning tour ever!!

Amazing tour! So much fun for our group of 14. We had 4 teens and 3 young kiddos on our tour and they totally helped and accommodated everything for us. The food, the history, culture and the experience was just phenomenal. So many special little treats along the way that customized it for our group. From learning our names to helping us enjoy the temple. So worth it and couldn't have been happier!
