“Amazing Half Day Tour of Kobe with Kyoto”

We had an amazing time Kyoto who spoke English with our group of 4. It was our first time in Kobe and we took a train from Osaka to meet Kyoto at the Sannomiya Tourist center. We went see Nunobiki Herb Gardens and Ropeway where we saw some amazing view of Kobe and the gardens very very beautiful with plenty of photo opportunities. We then walked through the town and had a brief lunch and proceeded to walk through Kobe Chinatown and Motomachi. Kyoto was very helpful in answering all of our questions when asked regarding Kobe and other areas. We finished the tour by walking to Harborland. Kyoto was nice enough to help us get to back to train station. We all had a fun and enjoyable day in Kobe. Thank you for making it memorable.

“An enlightening and enjoyable day in Hiroshima and Miyajima ”

Wen I read that Miyu-san had worked with atomic bomb survivors, I knew that I wanted to have her as our guide. We had previously visited Nagasaki on a trip 2 years ago and had been to the A-bomb sites there but this was our first time in Hiroshima. Unfortunately, my husband was not feeling well, so Miyu and I spent the day t0gether with the first stop at the Hiroshima peace Memorial Museum. Having been to Nagasaki, I was prepared for what I would see here, but in light of the current world situation, it was still very emotional. I was especially touched by the artwork made by survivors 29-30 years after the bombing, illustrating the pain and depth of their memories. Also seeing the story of N. And his family. And later hearing Miyu tell me about her work visitingwith survivors, even in a number of countries abroad. After visiting the other sites in and around the Peace Park, and having Miyu help me make an origami crane to leave there, we headed to Miyajima to see the torii gate in the sea. Miyu had planned the day specifically so that we would be there at high tide. We had a wonderful visit, even encountering a wedding at the shrine. It was so beautiful. We were so caught up with our touring that we almost missed lunch, but Miyu found a nice place where we had okonomiyaki, a delicious savory pancake specialty, and I added another specialty, a grilled oyster, to mine. After lunch, we visited the Daishoin Temple with some unique experiences there. It was such a wonderful day that we almost lost track of time. We had a bit of fun racing to catch the ferry and then the train so I could get back to my cruise ship on time! I told Miyu it was like being back home in NY racing like that and we had a good laugh about that. Miyu was fun to be with and so interesting to talk to and learn from. If you tour with her, you will surely have a great day. Arigato gazaimasu, Miyu-san.

Thank you very much for your detailed review. Reading it brought back fond memories of yesterday. We talked throughout the entire day—it was truly a fulfilling experience. Despite the heavy crowds at the Peace Memorial Museum, I sincerely admire how attentively you viewed the exhibits. Is your husband recovering well? I hope you both continue to enjoy a wonderful journey together.
