Hiroshima Cruise Reviews

We took the tram to Hiroshima's Peace Park and walked around for a while. The remains of a Japanese administrative building are a somber reminder of what took place there in August 1945. ...

The excursion is good. However, the tourist guide is very strange. She counted the numbers of people wrongly and kept us waiting for an hour. And finally she realised she used the wrong methos to count. Everyone is in the coach. ...

We took a taxi to the Peace Park, very easy to do, wandered around by ourselves and then visited the museum. Very harrowing and I was amazed at the number of primary school children visiting. One little boy, egged on by his giggling friends, gave us each an origami animal. I would not have liked to do an organised excursion here. I think you need to be able to take your own time. ...

It was pretty easy to take the free shuttle to the train station and take the train to the Atom Bomb Dome and Memorial Park. It is not to be missed. We walked down a side street and had a good meal at a small restaurant. ...

A fascinating tour. One note: the famous Torrey Gate and another shrine were shrouded for maintenance and painting. Two more years. ...

Easy to do on your own. Major sites close together were close together. The trains were very easy to use. The Dome, Peace Park and Museum are a must see and are a moving experience. ...

Caught shuttle and visited bomb museum on own, Much better that the too-slow bus excursion ...

Our guide was very good showing us the gardens, temples, and highlights of Hiroshima. We even saw housing for sale which was most enlightening. ...

Don't bother taking an excursion. You can take the shuttle to the museum and then walk the park yourself. There is some great street shopping within walking distance of the museum. ...

Our emphasis was on Japanese cultural sights rather than the atomic bomb sites. ...
