A highly informative and enlightening tour. Both fun and serious. Well worth it. - Our guide, Kana, was excellent. Very knowledgable and informative with excellent English. We visited multiple sites and got excellent information at each one. Kana was able to answer all of our many questions, was friendly and intelligent and a pleasure to be with. She even gave us an excellent dinner recommendation!

Tour with Shin, You Won’t Be Disappointed! - Shin was our tour guide and he was INCREDIBLE!! As a descendant of family directly affected by the A-bomb, Shin captivated us with heartfelt and knowledgeable stories at every stop of the tour. His boundless energy and alluring storytelling made the time fly by, we were saddened when the tour came to an end. The route he took us was very easy to navigate and the e-bikes required very minimal effort. Shin started as our tour guide and ended up being a friend. The lessons of friendship and peace will resonate with us until the end of time!

Thoroughly enjoyable, informative cycling tour - My sister and I attended the Sokoiko! 2 hour Peace cycling tour in mid-January on a clear winter day. Our guide was Shin, who made us feel welcome from the start. For my sister and I, this was the first time we used an e-bike, so we required some assistance with setting it up correctly. Shin was more than happy to help and very patiently adjusted our bicycles, which set us up for a comfortable ride. We thoroughly enjoyed learning about the history of Hiroshima, the impact the A-bomb on the city and its people, the role of trams in the city, and how the A-bomb also affected people of other nationalities as well. Shin shared personal experiences of his own family’s relationship with the event, and how they grappled with it. I was sad when the tour finally came to an end and it was time to say goodbye because I had been having such an enjoyable time. Shin was knowledgeable, funny and friendly. I was left with the take home message of the importance of hope while striving for peace. I would thoroughly recommend the cycling tour.

Two hours to think again about peace - The guide's narrative was wonderful. Starting with the history of Hiroshima's birth, it was only because I was there that I could see what people were like before and after the atomic bomb fell. War is absolute evil. I started to think about what I could do now to make the world a peaceful place. Thank you very much.

A Must-Do Cycling Tour in Hiroshima - It was a deeply meaningful and enlightening experience to cycle through the city of Hiroshima. Through a very personal and touching story, we were able to gain a sense of life as it was then and how the city has recovered in just eighty years. After each stop, I had the opportunity to reflect on the story during the ride to the next destination. This is undoubtedly a unique experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Hiroshima for the first time or even to those who are already familiar with the city.

Amazing Peace Tour Focuses on the Light Beyond a Dismal History - It was a really great tour and I was impressed. The town I thought I knew as a local, the history, it was a real eye-opener because I didn’t know anything about it. Toby's story, which highlights people who have risen from a tragic story that doesn't end there, resonated with me as a person living in the present.
