“100 of out 10! ”

We had a fantastic day with Ms. Kahori. My kids loved the tour and rated it "100 out of 10", "best tour we ever had" (and we have had many tours). In the morning, she showed us the wonderful sights of Miyajima Island. We didn't know much of the island except the Torii gate, but she showed us so much and we wholeheartedly loved it. For lunch, we had okonomiyaki. She even made a reservation for us at a local restaurant on the island, so we could sit down and order as soon as we arrived, which saved a lot of waiting time. In the afternoon, we went to the Peace museum. It was a dark part of our history, but important for us and the kids to see. However, there was also a bright side to it. During our train ride to the museum, she showed us how to make origami paper cranes, which was great fun for the kids, and perfectly timed, since subsequently the kids decided to dedicate their cranes at the monuments we visited. She was extremely friendly and patient, and great to be around!

Kahori M.

Thank you so much for your kind words! It was truly wonderful to spend time with such a lovely family like yours. The conversations with your children, as well as with both of you as parents and scientists, were very meaningful and precious to me. The earnest and lively expressions on your children's faces have become a treasure in my heart! Thank you!
