"We did a tour with Awais. His knowledge and history of the Peace Park and Museum was outstanding. He carefully navigated us through the museum and the park in a skilful way so we could learn and see lots in the park while making sure we saw what we wanted too. Then later visiting the castle and the gardens was also wonderful.
We spoke to other passengers on our cruise about their group tour and they didn’t even do half of what we were able to see with Awais.
Thank you Awais for a wonderful day. We will remember Hiroshima fondly because of you. "

"Our tour group of seven had a total of nine tours during our cruise. All tours were private guided and hand picked by the group leader.
Haq was unanimously voted the best guide . Here is why.
He was very organized, prompt, knowledgeable and accommodated the mobility needs of some of our group. Our tour of Hiroshima was excellent from beginning to end.
Not only did he take us to the requisite places one would expect to see on a one day tour of the city, but he also. Went above and beyond to provide information, historical context, and importantly, some personal information based on his time spent in Hiroshima and his experiences.
Beyond guiding us gently through the peace park and museums he shared, anecdotal stories from his family and personal experiences that Provided a fresh insight into not only the situation in Hiroshima During andafter the war, but life stories from someone who is not native to Japan.
Our group found these interactions, most interesting.
Thank you, Haq for a memorable day. If you have the opportunity to tour Hiroshima with him, you will not be disappointed..

"Nabeel was so patient with the barrage of questions from our family. There was no way this your could be done in 5 hours, yet we never were made to feel rushed. It was so nice to have a guide navigate the transit system for us, that saved us so much time!"

Excellent tour of Hiroshima
"Awais is a highly knowledgeable tour guide in Hiroshima. He thoughtfully explained all monuments in the Peace Park and gave context around the events before and after 1945."
"Haq was passionate and adapted well to our large group that included kids. We learned a lot and got to discover some local things off the beaten path. "
"Nabeel is great. Approachable and friendly.
Full of information that he shared as we wandered around the park and streets of Hiroshima.
He engaged our kids in conversation, whilst also chatting with us adults.
We have a few days in Hiroshima so Nabeel gave us a list of places to visit which was appreciated.
Highly recommend "

Great knowledgeable guide
"Haq was a great guide. He tailored the tour to what we wanted and gave a good balance in overall history of Hiroshima as well as the bomb and consequences. We also were able to visit miyajima island which was a great contrast. He gave us a number of choices during the day and ran to get our train tickets and found snacks for dietary requirements. He also made it nearer to 6 hours rather than 5 to fit everything in. Overall highly recommended. "
