The flexibility to chose locations that suited our wants and abilities was great. Hiro San was very quick to put together an itinerary that accommodated a family with a stroller-baby (no monkey park due to long unpacked walking paths). Taking in the beautiful temples and view of the Kyoto from the west was breath taking and the guide was able to explain many things we as new Japanese learners could not read or know through cultural knowledge. Overall a great experience, a wonderful and lively guide, and some great memories.

This tour gives an opportunity to cycle around Hiroshima learning about the aftermath of the Atomic bomb and the impact on the citizens of Japan. The tour was very knowledgeable on the topic. I learned a lot about the history of the Atomic bomb and I appreciate what the symbolism of the effects were. I highly recommend this tour if you are into cycling and history!
