Great visit to Itsukushima island

Published on Oct, 2024

Great knowledge of the city and tour of Itsukushima island. Bit wet on the day we did the tour, but Pancho took his time and showed us all places

Exploring Miyajima with Pancho

Published on Oct, 2024

It was all wonderful! The guide Pancho provided a lot of information - both historical and current - about the torii gate, shrine, and Daisho-in temple, as well as Miyajima island itself. Definitely recommend the tour and Pancho to others.

It was a last minute booking but it's all worth it. Along with our 11 year old son we had a full day tour in peace memorial park and Miyajima island. Historical Significance (5/5): Hiroshima’s Peace Memorial Park, the Atomic Bomb Dome, and the Peace Memorial Museum offer profound insights into the impact of World War II and the importance of peace. The historical context is deeply moving and educational. Pancho has an excellent knowledge and was able to show us places that you wouldn't know if you if you do it yourself kind of thing. Miyajima island experience is also great , not rushed and we took a lot of beautiful photos. Pancho took us to specialty restaurant and it was a great experience. It was my son's birthday and Pancho gifted him a personalised chopsticks which he really loved. Tour Organization (5/5): Tours are well-organized, with clear itineraries and knowledgeable guides. Pancho let us choose which places we are interested. We'll do this again in the future. Thank you Pancho.

It was everything I thought it would be and then some!

Published on Sep, 2024

It was a great experience from the start, as I learned how the train system works ect. My guide pointed out the best place to stand on the ferry for photographic reasons. We visited several Shrines and all my questions were answered. It’s a beautiful island with beautiful things to see. All in all just a great experience and can highly recommend it.
