"We had an amazing few hours with Awais! His knowledge about all things Hiroshima is commendable and has a gentle way of sharing the insights and stories of Hiroshima. After meeting us, Awais tailored our time together. Our suggestion is to book a morning tour. Thank you again Awais, anyone coming to Hiroshima we recommend Awais as your guide. "

"Awais has a love for Hiroshima, the history and the culture. We had a super 3 hour tour, he knows all the little extras, the smaller exhibits that have zero crowds. From these we learned the history and had time to think and reflect. Awais has lunchtime tips too! Great experience, thank you. "

"Our family of four spent 3 fantastic hours with Haq. He was very knowledgeable, funny and informative. We learned so much about Hiroshima, the war, the park and Japanese culture. We have taken guided tours all over the world and Haq rates up there with the best. Do not hesitate to select Haq ( the fact that he is not Japanese added to the tour since he has a very personal understanding of a foreigner’s view of the culture). "

"We had an exceptional experience with our tour guide in Hiroshima. He was not only fluent in clear and easily understandable English but also incredibly knowledgeable about the history surrounding the A-bomb. His expertise in presenting different perspectives and contextualizing historical events was truly impressive. Additionally, he provided us with a deeper understanding of Japanese culture, adding layers of meaning to every site we visited. His passion for the city and its history was evident and made our visit both educational and memorable. Highly recommended for anyone seeking a thoughtful and well-rounded tour of Hiroshima."

"Everything was great, we enjoyed a 3h walking tour with a lot of information about Hiroshima. "

"We did a tour with Awais. His knowledge and history of the Peace Park and Museum was outstanding. He carefully navigated us through the museum and the park in a skilful way so we could learn and see lots in the park while making sure we saw what we wanted too. Then later visiting the castle and the gardens was also wonderful. We spoke to other passengers on our cruise about their group tour and they didn’t even do half of what we were able to see with Awais. Thank you Awais for a wonderful day. We will remember Hiroshima fondly because of you. "

"Interesting tour, information rich and kind approach. Full of facts, flexible in time taken and numerous sights seen. Was brilliant also with a 10 and 14 year old. Also gave further recommendations for Hiroshima. "

"Thank you for taking good care of our clients, they did have a wonderful time. Will keep in touch with future guests Chevy "

"Our tour group of seven had a total of nine tours during our cruise. All tours were private guided and hand picked by the group leader. Haq was unanimously voted the best guide . Here is why. He was very organized, prompt, knowledgeable and accommodated the mobility needs of some of our group. Our tour of Hiroshima was excellent from beginning to end. Not only did he take us to the requisite places one would expect to see on a one day tour of the city, but he also. Went above and beyond to provide information, historical context, and importantly, some personal information based on his time spent in Hiroshima and his experiences. Beyond guiding us gently through the peace park and museums he shared, anecdotal stories from his family and personal experiences that Provided a fresh insight into not only the situation in Hiroshima During andafter the war, but life stories from someone who is not native to Japan. Our group found these interactions, most interesting. Thank you, Haq for a memorable day. If you have the opportunity to tour Hiroshima with him, you will not be disappointed.. "

"Awais is a highly knowledgeable tour guide in Hiroshima. He thoughtfully explained all monuments in the Peace Park and gave context around the events before and after 1945."
