Great Guide

Pancho (Tetsuo) was an amazing guide. His English was fluent, and made it easy to ask questions for everyone in my group. He was highly knowledgeable of the area and as an added bonus, helped us make dinner reservations for the evening. He was positive knew Hiroshima well, and made learning about the city and surrounding area very enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone interested in going to Hiroshima.

Hi Mari-san, Thank you so much for your great review and recommendation! It was great time to me having all of you and your family on my 400th anniversary tour on that day. We had really good time with all of you not only guiding around but also exchange all of our diverse company's culture/history and more. I'm glad to hear that you felt Hiroshima's positive side as well, that is what I focus on my tour as a guide here in Hiroshima. Happy to hear you enjoyed my favorite dinner place too! Thanks again, Pancho

Great time

Pancho took us around Hiroshima City and Miyajima Island and had a lot of beautiful places to introduce to us. Due to his very good English we were able to talk about everything and got many detailed explanations. Pancho is a super friendly guy and took very good care of our group and gave room for some alternatives. We will definitely book Pancho on our next trip to Hiroshima

Tetsuo (pancho) H.

Thanks Denise for your review that we spend great time both Miyajima and Peace park! Yes, we had a lot of conversation during the tour not only the history, typical A-bomb things, but also life style, people's mindset, work and like in Japan and more. I'm glad to hear you enjoyed. Me and my wife loves Weißwein and soda for new lineup for dinner options! Thanks again for joining the tour, looking forward to see you again! Pancho
